Yeah, this whole thing is very poorly done and really screams like annexcuse toncreate andalse flag moment. I saw a Reddit comment that this exact thing was listed in the Project2025 playbook as part of an excuse to create a scene and enact martial law.

One thing I’d recommend that I’m unsure how to easily obtain, is getting the phone number of a civil rights lawyer ready. It does kind of contradict the point about not bringing phones, I suppose. At the very least, if one is available in the vicinity after attempted arrests it can be useful.
I also feel somewhat guilty, as I will be attending in a very blue state that’s unlikely to have so much resistance, so I may skirt some of those rules myself.

I’d say that violent incursion into blue states with the help of federal forces and local brownshirt provocateurs is almost a goal of Project 2025 and MAGA more broadly so I wouldn’t count on it not happening wherever you are. We’ve seen plenty of that kind of thing on the West Coast particularly. Local police unfortunately have a large membership overlap with said brownshirts.

Why is your entire comment history deleted?

I think the care for being not identified and covering one’s tracks provided in the above comment is a pretty obvious indicator for why their comment history is scrubbed lol.

because I don’t want no brownies knocking on my door.

Great advice except I’m confused about how to “stream everything” if we’re supposed to leave our phones at home.

Why delete this treasure trove of good information??

The NSA scoops everything, this is known. Deleting it in 24h won’t change anything, the data is already collected.
GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 14 hours ago
I’m not afraid of the NSA.
NSA is like John Wick to the current administration. they have far too much dirt on everyone involved right now that they’re more neutral than anything.
that’s why they haven’t been attacked yet.

Isn’t that what throwaway accounts are for?

And based on the deal Trump is doing with Bukele, there’s a chance you could end up getting thrown into an El Salvadorian prison and locked up with MS-13 gangbangers.

I absolutely fucking hate that I can’t say you’re being a bit overkill.
What the actual fuck
