Exploit it? The EU thinks they can exploit the chaos? What are they going to do, give us universal health care, a strong safety net, consumer protections, renewable energy and TRAINNNNNNSSSSSSS? (Please, oh please)

I will believe it when I see it this is likely just talk.

Anytime I see something about "Anonymous" I just assume it's some kind of fed psyop until proven otherwise.

So, they are going to hurt innocent people to save the innocent people?

How exactly does this help us? Why attack infrastructure we need to survive? So many other targets I feel would have better results.

That's how you win asymmetric warfare.

"America is becoming fascist" makes me cringe.

It cannon become something that it has been for a long time. US was fascist under Clinton, Bush, Obama, first Trump admin, Biden and it keeps on the same track now. It's less than useless rallying cry when US foreing policy alone in the past 70 years is a realworld example of the thought experiment of "what would have happened if nazi-germany had won WW2". Genocide, war, coup, and dictatorship galore committed by the United States, especially after the 80s.

In the end what this narrative is about is that precarious middle class liberals fear that even more of the practices that US has been spreading around the world are now coming home and now the US government will gut it's own people instead of some foreigners. Even this isn't unprecedented and at worst Trump can only make things worse for some, but for many what they fear is already reality.

Makes me really think if this "Anonymous cell" has any real grass-roots basis or if it's just the same coup-mongers hiding behind thin leftist veneer to just jump against Trump, who they see as destructive loose cannon to their operations, not as an real opponent. Nothing new for Anonymous name being used in this way btw. Where were they under Biden?

I'm all for attacking infra - we need to make this shit more resilient and we need to transition to memory-safe langs like Rust. This will hopefully accelerate it. Also, I lol at people saying Trump/Elon/Doge will destroy the US when in reality - these kinds of people who wanna attack it probably have way better chances to do so.
