When fascists make lists, bad things are coming.

They want to make lists of autistic people. Of women likely to seek abortion. Of undocumented immigrants.

Discretion and privacy are more important than ever now. Donโ€™t track things electronically if it can be avoided. Donโ€™t broadcast resistance efforts. Use encrypted messaging and leave your cellphone at home.

It might save a life.

โ€œIn the last 24 hours, Iโ€™ve had people call, text, knock on my office door absolutely terrified for themselves and ready to throw themselves into advocacy against this national autism registry on a scale that I havenโ€™t seen,โ€ said Ari Neโ€™emanโ€ https://www.statnews.com/2025/04/24/no-new-autism-registry-hhs-says-contradicting-nih-director-jay-bhattacharya-claim/

And only track and document the crimes that Trump and his administration are committing. It will be needed when this is over. To put them on trial.

@broadwaybabyto
Let's make lists of fascists.
@ArnimRanthoron @broadwaybabyto we need a list of the people who are โ€œjust following ordersโ€ and kidnapping people and putting them on planes to CECOT.

@maggiejk @ArnimRanthoron @broadwaybabyto

That's called Antifascist Action. You can search for "Antifa {your location}"

Edit: please do not use google, bing or qwant

or if you are in the US, they are right wing doxxing websites with lists of local groups ( e.g. antifa watch . net/Groups ). You might want to avoid these since they are already under enemy fire or you want to support them depending on your ability.

@broadwaybabyto
We need to stop giving out such generalised advise but explain why a specific tactic is useful under which conditions.

For example, leaving your cellphone at home, may easier put you at risk of disappearance, as you may not be able to quickly inform your peers.
Leaving cellphones at home is important for some in some situations, and bad for some in some other situations.

Also tracking things electronically is among the safest accesable methods to store data in privacy friendly manner if well enough encrypted and the device secure enough.

@broadwaybabyto paper. Just please use paper.
Donโ€™t track your cycle on an app. Donโ€™t journal on an app. Meet face to face. Write letters. Learn basic cryptography.
Remember the Elon muppets didnโ€™t even recognize cobol , paper would probably give them a seizure.
Paper not plastic.
@broadwaybabyto And FFS if you haven't already done so, get the hell off of fascist networks where you can and will be tracked.

If you can't get off them, at least deny their apps access to your location.

@Dianora @broadwaybabyto

On Android you can install a "mock location" app that provides fake location info to all the other apps. You need to set it in Developer Options".

@broadwaybabyto This is how Fascism and dictatorship works. Fear is their best ally.
@EndicottAuthor @broadwaybabyto Fear also keeps people alive. So be smart about how you express that fear. Consciously choose when to take a visible stand and risk your safety, to time it when it has an impact, and when to hide and sneak to remain safe until the next time to take a stand.
@broadwaybabyto the #fediverse is pretty safe..I know larger instances, like @stux are requiring account vetting. Vetting works..the Masons have been doing it for centuries.

@broadwaybabyto my mother was snatched in Argentina '76 because she was listed on someone's phone book. Her whereabouts was unknown for 2-3 weeks, and she spent a total of 45 days in prison. She found out she was pregnant of me in jail; a nun told her. We were lucky to regain our freedom mostly unscathed. Some friends of her weren't so lucky. Once I heard some details from them over lunch, they were not for the light of heart.
