"“Goldwater in 1964” bumper stickers were soon met with mocking counter-stickers: “Goldwater in 1864.” The Goldwater slogan “In your heart you know he’s right” would be parodied by the Johnson campaign as “In your guts, you know he’s nuts.” The only international support he got came from apartheid South Africa, Spanish monarchists, and German neofascists."

"How could the United States elect a paranoid and vulgar man who trafficked in racial division, and who made criminal behavior standard operating procedure in the White House? Well, it elected Nixon. How could it elect an intellectually shallow entertainer, who was seemingly incapable of speaking truthfully on a consistent basis? Well, it elected Reagan. And as powerful as the right grew, its entrepreneurs in media and politics stoked culture war divisions to cultivate a powerful sense of grievance. "

The father of the modern American far-right only got international support by apartheid South Africa, spanish fascists and German neofascists. Let that sink in.

From abusers, clout chasers, careerists, and grifters to people getting thrust into a dangerous visibility, dehumanized, and overworked, the role of 'organizer' is detrimental both to the people who claim it/it's thrust upon as well as the movement for liberation as a whole.

Freedom doesn't need organizers, it needs everyone to take an active role in the fight and to refuse to put eachother on dehumanizing pedestals in the process.

We can't wait for others to fight for our freedom. As always, the secret is to begin.

#CentralPA Earlier this month, the Lancaster police department and Judge Roth showed it wouldn't hesitate to use violence and scare tactics when faced with accountability.

Ricardo Munoz's murder never should have happened. Roth's publicity stunt against the protesters never should have happened. It's further proof we need to abolish this system where police can show up to a mental health crisis, panic, and then get away with murder.

Fuck the police. Fund your social workers.
