HeavenlyPossumPete Hegseth is threatening to deploy marines to kill people protesting ICE in Los Angeles and it’s tempting to say “wow Trump has only been in office since January,” but really the events leading to this moment have been in play for decades prior.
Watching videos of people throwing rocks at fascists in SUVs is satisfying, but honestly a handful of spike chains would do more to cripple state security forces here than just about anything else.
During the Hungarian revolt against the Soviets in 1956, insurgents made fake anti-tank mines out of pie tins and put them in the street or strung them from cables in alleys to block the advance of Soviet tanks and what I’m trying to say is that it can sometimes take very little equipment to asymetrically fuck up a materially superior enemy force’s advance in a dense urban environment.

A couple months back there was a guy in my hometown who got swept away in some flash flooding. They found him and his car over a week later.
That’s when I found these car escape keychain things. They have a built in glass breaker that should help folks get out of trapped vehicles.

Seph@weezmgk @HeavenlyPossum Note the hollow spikes and hole in the centre so that air can escape.

Ukraine has taught us when the fascists are targeting your people, you target their equipment and infrastructure.

Pete Hegseth is obsessed with the cult of the operator and warrior lethality and he’s going to be real upset when his trucks don’t go =(
