Having conversations with trusted, battle-hardened movement veterans who are like, "you do understand that if this continues this way and you keep this up, you are not going to be around to say & #39;I told you so& #39; in two years."

I don& #39;t think folks understand how close we are to martial law situations where just supporting protest in a militant way could be treated as grounds for imprisonment/disappearing.

Fascists start with folks they can nab off the street, but they don& #39;t stop there.

That& #39;s why they& #39;ve moved so hard on this antifa = terror stuff.

Terrorist designation is very much about positioning for public acceptance of "Constitution doesn& #39;t apply for these people" totalitarian tactics.

They don& #39;t need majority support to advance it, either.

Just enough bots on Twitter screaming "Antifa terrorists" that CNN softpedals its coverage to avoid social media backlash.

(Sort of like what& #39;s happening now)
