NY shutting down Betar US is a real victory for pro‑Palestinian activists who’ve faced intimidation and harassment for speaking out. The AG’s findings make it clear: fear tactics won’t silence this movement. New Yorkers have a right to protest without being targeted.

Totally cool and normal in Australian democracy. Thanks Chris #Minns!
Forbidding NSW citizens to lawfully protest about any issue at all, for any reason, must satisfy much of your political platform. Good to know.

Code -
1st: acknowledging 'mass demonstration' from citizens no longer required
2nd: 'combustible situation' wld need to be pretty damn violent to be unable to quell
3rd: 'multicultural community' means sorting by ethnic difference ie discrimination based on race

This isn’t theoretical. When policy redefines dissent as danger, rights erode fast. Talk to your networks. Tag your members of Congress. Protect our right to protest. #ProtectProtest #SixFamilySpeaks
Organizers: document activities, limit unnecessary personal data collection, consult counsel, and brief volunteers/donors about minimal exposure practices. Everyone: learn how watchlists and admin flags are created and challenged. #KnowYourRights #ProtectProtest
When governments use vague security language against dissent, history shows it’s a shortcut to repression. We must resist normalization of surveillance and labeling that echoes past abuses. Civic dissent is not criminality. #Orwellian #ProtectProtest
🛑 STOP THE CRIME AND POLICING BILL
It will further criminalise poverty, and make it harder for people to protest
It’s back in Parliament in September
Share this video to let people know what’s at stake

Thank you to the frontline protesters at the LA Detention Center. You’re holding the line for families and freedom in the face of intimidation and force. We see you. We’ve got you.

The criminalisation of protest, especially enviro protest, in this country is second to none. Heavy-handed, draconian legislation like this curtails ALL rights. This is an eg of the state snooping at your social media feed. Where does that end?

Anonymous free speech – the ability to express oneself without revealing one's identity – is a right protected by the First Amendment in the United States. This is an attack on our constitutional rights.

Fascinating new empirical study about the efficacy of 'extreme' climate protest. Give it a read! The trade-off btw public disgust and public action
Have you summarised this as 'damned if you do, damned if you don't'@owasow.bsky.social?
