  General strike would be my choice.

    For a few weeks now I have been expecting some real retaliation to be honest. It’s a damn mess that’s for sure.

      I feel really sad for the decent Americans. I’ve got a bunch of LGBT+ friends in Australia that are really being affected by this, particularly the potential for it to spread.

    Yeah I think it is definitely time for a general strike. There’s a list of serious grievance as long as my arm, but even just to demand that the murder is charged with murder would be a good move. A line has to be drawn somewhere. And if murdering civilians has not cross the line, then wtf?

    Especially if you’re one of the current targets (not hetro+white). Claim asylum in another country. The evidence is clear to the rest of the world.

  Shut down Minneapolis. Park your car in the middle of the street and block traffic with your body. Don’t go to work. March on City Hall and demand the mayor do more than talk. Obstruct everything you can. Throw your sabots into the machinery.
