People: Your signs are cute but what's your plan?????? What are you going to doooooo?

BIPOC Communities: We're organizing, mobilizing, and getting ready.

People: But I don't see you doing it. What are you *doinngggggg*? What's your plan?

This is what a lot of snooty fucking lefty bros/people sound like. Like, bro, wtf are YOU doing?

Folks demanding a plan like they want to copy someone else's homework.

Fuck, *do your own homework.*

Yesterday, I listened to a tiny trabajadora describe in Spanish the work she and the other trabajadores are doing to protect each other while ICE kidnaps them and decimates their families. She asked for people to join them and help them.

THAT'S THE FUCKING PLAN.

FUCK.
Ypipo, man.

FUCK! What are you looking for? Some Project 2025-like outline for a radically different social order? No one has time for that! FUCK.

Happy Sunday.

@DeliaChristina I think it is time for state governors and like minded members of Congress to form a shadow government that uses the power residing in states to build an alternate government for the next three years. States have their own taxing power, and can tax billionaires and use the money to fund their own low income medical benefits until Medicaid is fully funded. They can restrict their police from aiding ICE. And they can provide state funded assistance to noncitizens

@DeliaChristina California, Oregon, and Washington alone are a prosperous country with the constitutional power to pick up the money from the upper class that Trump is leaving on the table, and to use it to bridge the gap in social services, with laws, taxes, and budgets set to expire on December 31, 2028. A dollar is a dollar, whether federal or state.
