@kate I'm somewhat surprised at the lack of... dispute?
like, "perceived as harmful to society" is not suggested to be a misperception.
likewise it doesn't suggest "The US government trying to establish a totalitarian regime" is a falsehood
like, I thought we were supposed to resist unjust gov't
@kate haha cool, gimme a patch for my jacket Joe

In this case at least we still have elections to vote better people in, which Trump had very much been hinting at wanting to eliminate. Shit rolls uphill. To clean shit at the top, start at the local level and work upwards.
@bluestarultor you are an idiot
@kate and surely Indigenous people who protest to protect their land from oil pipelines will be classified as "environmental violent extremists" under this
