I’m seeing some encouraging things from amazing people today. I need this. You probably need this.

WARNING: this video has all the yelling cuss words.

This guy is bold af. He is not messing around. I almost teared up hearing him say “I’ll die for this shit.” And he’s shaking.

This is the LEAST we need to do every time we see them.

I aspire to be this brave. ❤️

That is the way! They are cowards hiding behind masks, gloves, and vests

@markwyner

When he said "this is my F*(&$ village" that did it for me.

@stonetree oh, yeah. Actually, every few seconds I thought it was THE moment of his monologue. And then there was more. He’s preaching fire!
@markwyner aye, that is the response these fascist goose-stepping thugs deserve.
@markwyner I have … no words. Oh … wait …
<Darth Vader voice >
“Impressive. Most impressive.”

@markwyner

Like a fuckin' boss. He was effective, too.

I just hope they didn't come back in the middle of the night and collect him.

EDIT: That doesn't sufficiently say what I meant. What I meant was, someone in this man's community needs to keep an eye on him to make sure he doesn't disappear.

@sparseMatrix you’re good. I understand what you were saying. And I agree. I hope folks are looking out for him. Especially after he looked out for the people.

@markwyner

Something similar happened down in the boroughs in New York City, but it was a big crowd of people, and they chased off a bunch of goons who showed up in an armored truck to start harassing immigrant street vendors.

EDIT:

It might have been up in Manhattan, but I couldn't really tell because of the chaos.

@markwyner
He is rightly outraged furious as every citizen should be. Whow. Respect for speaking out.

Although #frogpower is the right way against the propaganda of this regime - NO one should take the seriousness of the situation lightly.
Lives are destroyed (literally) by the rascist actions of those thugs. I have SO much respect for everyone trying to stay peaceful even when they snatch people of the street.
But as a matter of fact the US are not a democracy anymore already. Stay safe. ✊🏼🖖🏼

@markwyner

Very brave and very right in his rage… these cowards should be ashamed of themselves…

@markwyner I do hope someone uses that visible license plate is that brave dude’s video and doxes the fuck out of those “cops/ICE/MAGA” pricks.
@markwyner probably only works while being white, though
@punissuer the camera man is Latino.
@punissuer that sounded like I was dismissing your sentiment. You are correct that this approach typically only works when you’re white. 100%. It’s just that in this case, he’s Latino.
@markwyner I didn't read it that way, thanks for clarifying though. Yes, that makes it even more impressive, IMHO

@markwyner OMG. I had no idea how emotional this would make me. Mother. Fucking. Hero.

And the Spanish swear words were worse :D

@guyjantic yeah, I feel the same way. I wasn’t even sure what to write in my post about it. As I mentioned, I aspire to be that brave. I’m getting there.
@markwyner Same. I'm not on the same level as this man.

@markwyner

That it!
Thats what needs to happen every time these masked pieces of shit show up.

I'm actually really surprised at how few of these challenges are being posted. This gives me hope.

@markwyner There's never an excuse to use misogynist and speciesist slurs, pigs and rats are innocent of the crimes of fascists and don't deserve to be compared to them. I shouldn't need to explain why bitch and pussy are misogynist

We can't fight one system of oppression while supporting others or it will just keep coming up in other forms like lumps in a carpet

#misogyny #speciesism #fascism

@markwyner My heart was racing while he went on. I too aspire to be this brave. He's a hero.
@pooblemoo @markwyner Especially because they *could* have killed him, right there.
@markwyner
This man is INSPIRING, maybe I can draw on that righteous anger myself one day.
@markwyner I stopped drinking coffee. I just watch this in the morning
@markwyner that's how you should respond to what you thing is crime 👍
