This is not normally a thing I would do to anyone's employment. It's such a struggle to pay for the most basic necessity anymore. I was done grocery shopping and called for an uber ride home. I hate to put these words into writing myself, but you need to know what was said. I entered the car, and the first thing this man said to me was: "You know allot of people around are sick of "The blacks." When did they start saying that? He went on about how they are all criminals and needed to be punished in an aweful manner. He told me about the youtube propaganda he watched and how it drove his hate. At this point I stopped being silent and spoke up. I told him I don't agree with him. I said the police have guns and body armor, we don't. If we don't comply were threated by weapons. I explained George Floyd. I explained police brutality, rascism and how is set up for you to feel that way. His response? "Well my gas bill went down since Trump took office." "You are wierd." And "I am three times your age."

By the time I was home it ended in a screaming match. I told him I am ashamed to be the same color as you. When they get schooled on politics and explain how they are wrong, they start name calling and threatening to report you. He gave me that idea to repot him to uber! Now I hope his rascism keeps him fed, because he no longer has a job.

I had to vent this somewhere appropriate.

I posted this on a phone. TL;DR An extremely rascist uber driver debated me until his job was just taken.

This subreddit has inspired me and given me hope. I am curious to see how long my post will even stick around here, having seen so many getting taken down. But I made this photo rather quickly and I am sure it'll trigger others. With that being said, I want to print it on posters, signs, and t shirts. Let me know what improvements can be made, haha!

Just saying… it would be a real shame if it strangely and mysteriously flooded digital spaces everywhere on such a random day as June 14th… truly… it would be such a shame… 🌮

**When: **Saturday, June 14, 2025

Where: 12:00 p.m. 2:00 p.m.

**Where: **Vancouver Art Gallery

The media won’t say it—but we will. Donald Trump is a fascist. On June 14th, we’re gathering at the Vancouver Art Gallery to send one clear message: it's time to stop soft-selling the threat. It’s time to call fascism what it is.

WHY WE’RE DOING THIS We’re not waiting for history books to catch up. We’re saying it now, because it’s true now.

The lack of widespread adoption of the word “fascist” has real consequences. When the media, journalists, politicians, and institutions downplay Trump’s rhetoric and actions, the public underestimates the threat. And when we don’t call it like we see it, fascism can more easily take root here at home in Canada.

WHY JUNE 14th Because it’s Trump’s birthday and he’s using it as a show of force. A protest on this day shows we won’t stand for silence, soft language, or denial.

The Context We want to call it out and name it. It’s fascism when you… Silence the press Jail and intimidate opponents Persecute freedom of expression Deport citizens without due process Ignore laws and use fear to rule

The word is still treated like an exaggeration or misrepresentation. That ends here. Why? Because this U.S. presidential administration is an authoritarian government, prioritizing power over people.

The truth matters. And the truth is urgent. We stand up now because if it can happen there, it can happen here. It’s not the time to be a passive bystander.

Read more in our recent blog post “Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad F-World”

WHAT TO DO Show up with one message: “You’re a fascist if…”

Finish the sentence. Bring your sign. Tell your friends. Sign our petition. Help us hold the line against normalization. Because when we as a society name it, we can fight it.

Why Vancouver? Because Trump’s fascist tactics don’t stop at the U.S. border - they impact us too. From economic coercion through tariffs, to anti-immigrant policies that strain our borders, to undermining democratic alliances like NATO, his actions directly affect Canada. These aren’t just aggressive politics, they mirror classic fascist strategies: domination, nationalism, and authoritarian control. And with Trump arriving in Canada for the G7 the very next day, we’re showing up to say: we see it, and we’re naming it.

Buried in Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” is the sharpest dagger yet—a clause that guts federal courts’ ability to enforce contempt rulings. It says officials can ignore court orders (like injunctions or restraining orders) unless the plaintiff posts a bond. That’s unheard of—and intentionally designed to let the executive branch walk free from judicial accountability.

This isn’t just bad policy. It’s a constitutional kill switch.

It makes federal court orders advisory—toothless.

It shields officials from contempt penalties.

It was hidden, because they knew public scrutiny would destroy it.

It clearly violates the Byrd Rule, because it’s not budget-related. One Senator can raise a point of order and kill it.

CALL YOUR SENATORS. Demand a Byrd Rule challenge.

Even if the rest of the bill passes, this clause cannot be allowed to stand. If it does, court orders won’t mean a damn thing. It’s a direct threat to the separation of powers—and the rule of law.

We still have one move left. Use it.
