re: the racist attack in Red Deer:

1) stop calling it Trumpism. this is born and bred Alberta fascism, stoked by Rebel Media and emboldened by our own government.

2) the RCMP& #39;s lack of intervention shouldn& #39;t come as a surprise. POC organizers have been saying this for decades.
3) denouncing what happened isn& #39;t good enough anymore. the only way we& #39;re going to beat back the rise of fascism is by OUT-ORGANIZING fascists. that means embedding anti-racist organizing in every union across the province and overwhelming racists with our numbers in the streets.
i& #39;m not saying i& #39;m convinced by every argument made here but how we respond to the alt-right determines its fate and we need to be strategic.
