We are still in this together, but "this" is going to be real different in the very near future. This demands a different kind of "we."
The French Resistance during Nazi occupation played important roles delivering downed Allied airmen back to safety, supplying military intelligence, and acts of sabotage.
The Underground Railroad is estimated to have brought 100,000 freedom seekers to safety between 1810 and 1850.
It's time.
Rules
- Do not gatekeep resistance
- Do not organize specific subversive plans here.
- Do not identify yourself or anyone else here.
- Do brainstorm general ideas about how to support people who need it and stymie the efforts of fascists
- Do share thoughts on how to be personally prepared for subversive action

in the eyes of the law probably nothing is harmless if it's impeding the police
no doubt they will use this as an excuse to engage with "non lethal" force
"less lethal" now since they don't actually have non lethal methods.
true
If I was on a jury I would judge any retaliation at that point to be self defense.
Cops will make up any excuse they want to deem a protest a riot and use riot munitions.
People in the USA, however, need no excuse to protest right now.
If blowing bubbles is a threat of assault leading to arrest, they will see throwing pink paint as way over the line. https://youtu.be/LaoXZeVTJAc
