via http://ift.tt/2klPLsp:How the town of Whitefish defeated its neo-Nazi trolls — and became a national model of resistance:
charminglyantiquated:
scholvin:
As pleasing as it is to see Richard Spencer get hit in the face over and over and over on my dash tonight, he actually suffered a far more humiliating and important defeat earlier this week.
Remember how he called for an armed march against the tiny Jewish community in his hometown of Whitefish, Montana for last Monday? Yeah. About that:
The rabbi’s voice began to break. For several seconds, the park was silent, save for the sound of Roston sniffling. “You let us know that we are not alone,” she finally said. “You let us know that our community, that our amazing magnificent town of Whitefish, is not only protected by great, divinely formed mountains of earth — this town is protected by a wall of humanity that refuses to be quiet or sit still in the face of bigotry, racism, sexism, homophobia or anti-Semitism.”
TL;DR – the entire town rallied around their neighbors. They got unequivocal, strong, bipartisan support from state officials. Reinforcements arrived from around the country. And the nazis fucking bailed. They never even showed up.
That article needs editing, but it’s worth a scan for the lessons in it. The one I’m holding onto is that we can never give these clowns power they don’t actually have, especially the nameless online assbags. We can’t cede an inch. If we care about each other, and just show up, they will lose every. fucking. time.
a bit of good news for anyone feeling powerless and scared in the wake of the inaugeration. people are fundamentally decent, I think, and if more of us can go from passively going ‘how awful’ to action we can get through the next four years.

when ppl act like the goal of anti-nazi ppl is to “”change their minds”” about their “”beliefs”” like… that’s…
we don’t give a shit about their ~beliefs~??? I dont care if mr dick is sittin in his house thinking jews are awful. I would LIKE for him to not think that but I ultimately do not care. I do not care about changing his thoughts.
i care about preventing him from having enough of a public platform that he and people like him gain the power to ACT ON those beliefs.
so yes actually! punching nazis when they are trying to be suave on television, such that they are unwilling to try to go and appear suave on television again, does accomplish that.
i dont care what mr dick thinking in the privacy of the hole he crawled out of, at this point. we are at a point where there are way more pressing things regarding nazis. which is like. nazis get to be suave on television.

Watch Barron Trump Adorably Play With, Keep Ivanka’s Baby Son Theodore Occupied During Donald’s Inauguration
Can we all universally agree to treat Barron Trump with kindness?
He seems to be a quiet, goodnatured kid who didn’t ask to be put into the situation he’s in.
The media is going to be harsh on him any chance they get because of who his father is. He’s 10 years old and is going to age to 14 in front of the world. I remember those years being hard in a normal situation let alone on a world stage and in the middle of such a hostile situation.
Believe me I can’t stand Trump either but I hope we all can keep our distaste aimed at the correct target and leave this little fella out of it.
Leave him alone. Kids can’t choose their parents. Criticize the adults for their actions and choices, but you leave him alone. He’s a child, and he’s not the one making decisions. We do NOT get to attack him just because he’s related to Trump.
Keep him out of any criticism or anger you levy at Trump and the administration. This child is innocent.

Hello Naughty Younglings It’s Murder Time
if you can’t handle me at my in pieces exposed wires C-3PO, then you don’t deserve me at my shined and fresh out the oil bath C-3PO.
does Luke Skywalker is gay?
Me: so what do you think about the rebellion?
Date: Im actually a huge supporter of the Empire. Theyre pushing this galaxy in the right direction.
Me, shoving nutrient packs into my purse: sorry my uncle Fulcrum called I have to go-
midichlorians are the power house of the jedi
Jedi will travel across the galaxy to Jedha just to get kyber crystals for their lightsabers
They crave that mineral
You wouldn’t download a Death Star.
My name is Kylo Ben Organa Skywalker Solo Ren and I have a long red lightsaber (because I’m a Sith lord) with red crossguards and a lot of people tell me I look like Darth Vader (AN: and if u dont know who that is u can get the hell out of here!) I’m not related to Darth Sidious but I wish I was because he was major fucking powerful. I’m also a member of the First Order, and I command a huge weapon called Starkiller Base. I’m a Knight of Ren (in case you couldn’t tell) and I wear mostly black. I love Hot Topic and I buy all my clothes from there. For example today I was wearing a black scarf with matching black leather around it and a black robe, black gloves and black combat boots. I was wearing my black ventilator mask. I was walking outside Starkiller Base. It was snowing and raining so there was no sun, which I was very happy about. Rey and Finn stared at me. I put up my middle finger at them.

All the links from the White House website are gone, but the Affordable Care Act is still in effect, and you can sign up for health insurance until January 31.
Trump and his cronies may want to kill it, but that takes time (especially now that key players are waffling and the insurance industry have noticed that it will rain chaos down upon them). So sign yourself up. Get in a free checkup, a round of antibiotics, a birth control implant, while you have the chance.
If anyone needs help applying, ping me.
Todavía puede inscribirle en Obamacare. Si necesita auyuda, pídame.
Would you all mind boosting this? I don’t usually ask, but Obamacare is a big deal for me. I haven’t had to dose anyone with veterinary antibiotics in years, and I really want to keep it that way.
Please signal boost this, friends.

I just learned that if you are the descendent of a Jew stripped of citizenship in Germany during the Holocaust, you are entitled to German citizenship
Wouldn’t it be so ironic if I, the grandchild of a German Jew who immigrated to America to flee Nazi Germany, fled to Germany decades later to escape fascism in the US?
Sounds like a sequel I’d read, but never want to live through.
Yeah, I’m hoping things do not escalate to that point in the US. But it’s funny you say that considering I’ve been thinking about writing a book about my family history lol

approach politics based on the content of what is being contributed. see what works, what resonates, what humanizes, and adapt + improve upon it. to approach politics based on a metric of “purity” with regard to influential persons from the past is to do nothing but hemorrhage yourself, because no one is “pure” (and nothing screams “bourgeois radical” more than feeling as if you have a pure selection of rhetoric). always historicize, and always remember that history is full of contradictions.

Trauma often messes with one’s ability to say “no”.
You either consciously or subconsciously think, “I don’t want to hurt this person’s feelings” or “If I say no, then they’ll hurt me” or “It won’t really be that bad” or “I can handle this” or “I need to do this to prove myself” or “I deserve this”, or you forget that “no” is even an option.
It’s still not your fault if you didn’t say “no”, even if you think maybe you could have. It’s still not your fault. You didn’t deserve what happened to you and you didn’t bring it upon yourself. It was never your fault.
