Our very sensitive and concerned federal (brought to you by Fox) leadership wants you to think that eighty six forty seven is a call for political violence. But then Candidate Trump posted images like this. You can still buy these from car wrap vendors.

Oh, the humanity.

Saw this photo in an article regarding a child being left on the side of the road after ICE agents (who refused to ID themselves) took the adult in the car into custody. And thought there should be a sub to start posting photos of ICE agents who are on video kidnapping people. Especially ones where they refuse to identify themselves as ICE, cover ip with masks, and are pushing, shoving and harming people. I mean what if they aren’t actually even ICE, just saying they are??? Someone with computer skills to screen grab from the videos. A record of those participating in the illegal, without due process, grabbing of people in schools, hospitals, churches, streets, and homes. Not identifying themselves, wearing masks, balaclavas and plain clothes.

Collecting photos and videos all in one place. Because following illegal orders, is not a defence according to the ICC.

Feel free to use for posters and whatnot if you'd like.

And PS for TPTB, 86 is in no way a death threat but simply means to remove, as in impeach and remove from office.

Got deleted from r/PoliticalHumor for not being funny and using Twitter conversations. I figure it'll be appreciated here.

Do not engage with divisive commenters. If what is being said doesn’t further the movement to remove Donnie from office and unite Americans against facsism, do not engage. They are working overtime to undermine the resistance and we cannot let them.

We stand together! Let’s get geared up for June 6th and June 14th. Bring your friends. Look out for one another. Stand up together.

You can find a protest near you on indivisible.org and fiftyfifty.one. You can also sign up to host your own peaceful event.

See you all out there! 🤍

I just learned about a troll guide leaked from The Daily Stormer (neo-Nazi website) about 8 years ago. It teaches trolls how to write to be able to gain influence in mainstream culture without getting banned. It’s worth a skim. See bottom of the page of the HuffPost article in the DocumentCloud reader to read the full document.

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/daily-stormer-nazi-style-guide_n_5a2ece19e4b0ce3b344492f2

It’s all focused on antisemitism, but I realized I’ve seen all those strategies before because they work on any target (LGBTQ+ people, immigrants, etc.), so why wouldn’t trolls use them?

Russian troll farms and alt-right influencers use these strategies on Reddit, we see it all the time. Sometimes it’s just your 84 year old uncle parroting the same troll tactics he got from Facebook not realizing where it came from. Where it came from knew what it was doing and was very intentional and explicit about harming others and using ploys to do so in this guide.

I took the main instructions from the guide and applied them to versions of what I see online.

And this is why the trolls all sound the same, it’s the same old game.

  1. “Why are there 57 genders now?”

Tactic: Mock identity to make complexity feel absurd.

Use humor to mask hate. Blur the line between joke and attack.

If you’re laughing, you’re not questioning. The guide says to use memes to ridicule. I see that in memes making fun of gender diversity and trying to make cruelty seem like common sense.

  1. “Why do drag queens need to be around children?”

Tactic: Manufacture moral panic.

I see them frame queer people as predators. They want to spark fear and shut down thought.

The guide says: Use kids as bait. Trolls exploit parental instincts to make LGBTQ+ visibility look threatening.

  1. “If immigrants love their country so much, why don’t they stay there?”

Tactic: Dehumanize the target (refugees) by questioning their motives.

Erase and ignore context from stories. Blame the victims. Scapegoat the weak.

This makes fleeing violence or poverty seem suspicious. It hides the systems and history that caused migration in the first place.

  1. “I’m not racist, I’m just stating facts.”

Tactic: make bigotry seem “logical”.

Avoid slurs, but push racial stereotypes.

Sound smart, not hateful. The author acknowledges that no one responds well to rageful vitriol. So, instead of using hateful slurs they’ll talk about “IQ gaps” or “cultural incompatibility.”

  1. “Why can’t we have a Straight Pride?”

Tactic: Invert oppression to claim victimhood.

The Nazi guide instructs to always portray your side as the real oppressed group.

It’s meant to discredit LGBTQ+ pride by making it sound exclusionary.

  1. “These refugees all look like military-aged men.”

Tactic: Stoke fear of invasion.

Cherry-pick images to frame migrants as threatening.

What I see: Avoiding showing women, children, or elderly. Using images that reinforce “replacement theory”.

  1. “You can’t say anything anymore without getting canceled.”

Tactic: Frame consequences as censorship.

Nazis said to frame all pushback as persecution.

It protects trolls from accountability and makes them sound like rebels instead of what they are (bigots).

  1. “Everyone’s a Nazi now, huh?”

Tactic: Water down the word.

The Daily Stormer told its writers to make “Nazi” sound meaningless.

It confuses people. If calling out fascism sounds like hysteria then fascists get a free pass.

Look at what Elon is doing now. Think it’s a coincidence with his NAZI salute?

  1. “OMG calm down, it’s just a meme.”

Tactic: Weaponize irony to escape accountability.

The guide tells writers to blur the line between sincerity and satire so outsiders can’t tell if the hate is real.

When called out, trolls say “it’s just a joke.” But when left alone those “jokes” radicalize others.

  1. “Trump just says that to troll the libs.”

Tactic: Frame cruelty as performance art. The guide says to use lulz and trolling to make hate entertaining and “dehumanize within the confines of humor,” and to always appear like you’re winning.

It turns racism, violence, authoritarianism and so on into a game. Emotional domination = entertainment.

  1. “Liberal hypocrisy is the real problem.”

Tactic: Erode trust by highlighting contradictions without offering solutions.

List contradictions in liberal narratives (e.g. feminism + Islam, gender as social construct + born this way) to create disillusionment.

They don’t care about the hypocrisy. They really just want you to throw up your hands and give up on truth out of utter disgust, that is the main goal.

There is zero question at this point that Trump should be removed from office. He is trampling all over the Constitution, violating the separation of powers, defying court orders, denying people due process, using the presidency to enrich himself, accepting foreign bribes, and threatening to take control of other countries' territory.

And that doesn't even count all the crimes he committed before returning to office in trying to overturn the 2020 election.

There will soon be a vote on Trump's impeachment. Every member of Congress who refuses to vote in favor is complicit in his crimes. They must be protested, their offices flooded with angry letters and phone calls, and they must be kicked out of office in the next election.

The current list of categories on events.pol-rev.com doesn't really reflect the kinds of events that are being posted. Trying to figure out what a reasonable list of categories would be.

I'll post some ideas in the comments. Please upvote if you think it should be a category, downvote if not. And post more ideas if you think things are missing.

Help me spread this idea so we can create a consumer blackout
