Too bad they know, but it's very nice of them to share this tactic with all radicals! →

I love how the article is written like anarchist protesters should be “prepared for” like theyre hurricane season on the east coast. ahahahaha
This tactic, while clever, pales compared to the surveillance tactics used by the cops. Note how the author laments the obstacles that the 1st Amendment and net neutrality pose to the police. This doesn’t mean that the cops won’t use illegal means to go after the folks who provide this logistical information - it just means they might lose some cases for the beaten defendants with their smashed cell phones months or years later whenever their case comes up in court.

I am the boy who never finished high school, because I got called a fag everyday. I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian. I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman. I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights. We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time. I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room. I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me. I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear. We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men. I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me. I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman. I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman. I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male. I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men. I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that. I am the woman who died when the EMTs stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didn't have to always deal with society hating me. I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind. I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love. I am the person ashamed to tell my own friends I'm a lesbian, because they constantly make fun of them. I am the boy tied to a fence, beaten to a bloody pulp and left to die because two straight men wanted to "teach me a lesson"--- if you believe that homophobia is wrong, feel free to reblog this

Merry Christmas! You run one of my favorite blogs.

How is The Baeder-Meinhof gang, it's on my netflix waiting to be watched, was totally intrigued by them when i was a kid and then again when I saw the Gerhard Ritcher paintings.
it’s incredibly intense. it was intense here as well, especially for the Panthers, the Weather Underground, the Underground media, the American Indian movement, etc. but the level of state repression in a place like Germany, or Mexico, or Chile (etc.) was incredibly severe. it is interesting that most of those who became most violent in the struggle against the state, both here in the U.S. and in other countries, seems to have been from the most privilegened classes. I recommend the film, as violent as it is.
