At sentencing, one of the presiding judges, U.S. District Judge Reed O'Connor, called the Priarieland demonstration "an assault on democracy," emphasizing that "the need to deter this type of conduct is high.”
If only they were also carrying zip ties and intended to beat up/kill elected officials, their “assault on democracy” would just be supporting the president and they’d be out of jail in no time!
he picked up and moved around some anti-fascist materials, not anti-government materials. 🤨
only a fascist government would have a problem with that, and it's wild that neither the headline nor the article spells out the full term anti-fascism. not doing so helps to obscure its meaning for those who don't already know the term, and they then might be swayed into believing the propaganda. 🫠
The strength in faux "democratic" powers comes from silencing people who dare question the class inequality. And their people wonder how it inevitably leads to rise of fascism again and again.
