"Nice thing about Minneapolis being kinda small is that it’s hard to convince us protesters are being paid because you’d go out and oh there’s that kid from my high school who played Sancho Panza in Man of La Mancha one year, and is that the pharmacist at my CVS over there, and there goes our realtor."

"There's a group of online fascists coming to town Saturday. Aside from ICE they'll be either at federal bldg or down at Cedar/Riverside and need to be opposed.
There are folks encouraging people in Minneapolis to simply disengage and let weather deal with the fascists on 17th.
Don't do that.
Fascists must be confronted at every opportunity and in every place.
Even in sub-freezing Mpls. You can not give them the streets. Fight them."

"Gov. Walz calls up Minnesota National Guard to 'protect the public's right to assemble peacefully.'
'We are staged and ready to respond. We are not deployed to city streets at this time' said MN NG Army Maj. Andrea Tsuchiya, adding that troops will help provide 'traffic support to protect life, preserve property, and support the rights of all Minnesotans to assemble peacefully.'
In other words, it's show time."
Okay, now to do a little searching and find out how the NG deployment actually played out. 😬

"Right-wing influencer Jake Lang is stuck in a window recess against Minneapolis City Hall.
He’s soaked with freezing water after counterprotesters hurled water balloons at him."

"haha
another chud finds out that the 'nice' in 'minnesota nice' is, critically, being modified
as @Cooperlund says, they’re just making content. and a shivering nazi weeping as he has to be helped by protestors away from his failed rally just a few miles away from where folks are enjoying a brisk day of sledding is a propaganda coup."

"Respectfully, I am going to whisper to some of our white comrades a truth that should be more widely known: You definitely have some ancestors to be proud of, ancestors who refused white supremacy, and poured out their lives in many of these struggles over time.
Time to claim your true history.
You do have some fierce AF ancestors, too. It's just that we don't learn about them or what we learn is lies *on purpose.*"
