The US Attorney’s Office in Minneapolis has charged fifteen people with “conspiracy to impede federal officers,” accusing them of defending their neighborhoods from ICE.

Working with anarchist artist NO BONZO, we've made a support poster to inform people about the case. Please print these out and post them everywhere!

This prosecution is a part of NSPM-7, the Trump administration’s initiative to turn the War on Terror against “antifa”—which is to say, against anyone who opposes fascism. The goal of these charges is to intimidate people out of standing up for each other. Make no mistake, this prosecution is directed at all who do not welcome authoritarianism. If it succeeds, they will repeat this strategy again, targeting more and more people.

In the face of fascist violence, the only route to safety is collective organizing. Solidarity is self-preservation. The harder it is for them to capture today’s targets, the longer it will take them to target the rest of us.

Support the Minnesota fifteen!

The US Attorney’s Office in Minneapolis has charged fifteen people with “conspiracy to impede federal officers,” accusing them of defending their neighborhoods from ICE.

Across Minnesota and all around the country, hundreds of thousands of people have come together to form rapid response networks and protect their neighbors from mercenaries who are separating parents from their children and brutalizing people regardless of their immigration status. As ICE agents murder people in the streets, federal authorities want to pretend that those who stand up to ICE represent the real threat to the public.

i wrote arnes.space/fleck/lodestone/ a while ago. it's a search engine that allows you to find stuff you fav'ed on the fediverse, even if your instance does not support extended search functionality.

i was just able to find a meme again (see attachment) because people on the fediverse care about adding alt text to images. the curb cut effect is real!

anyways, let me know if you're using lodestone or if you're trying it out, i'd be interested if other people find it useful at all

square crop meme with an upper line saying "the only posers i fuck with are decomposers". a bunch of cut-out mushrooms with a thick black border are placed at the center of the meme, before the word "decomposers". the meme uses bright saturated colors, and even the pale background, which is a cross-section of the upper soil layers explaining the decomposition process, is over-saturated
