alapakalaWhere are they going to find a jury dumb enough to convict them?
In Washington state they already convicted a few people for a similar incident. More people need to know about jury nullification.
They have 77,302,580 Nazis at their disposal.
Do you have enough ammunitions for’em?

InnerworldNow the US has political prisoners. Awesome!
Always have. The longest held political prisoner is Leonard Peltier from the American Indian Movement who’s been in prison since the 1970s. Alice Paul was a political prisoner who was tortured in prison in 1917 for trying to earn the right to vote.

Heroes on the right side of history.
My grands spinning in their graves fast enough to power every ev on USA roads.
Happy cake day
Thank you!
One thing that is being begged over and over during this Trump regime is this: the current separation of powers is not enough. The executive branch needs to be broken down: the president cant be the one who controls who gets prosecuted or not.
Separation of powers doesn’t do anything when all branches are controlled by the same ideology.
True, and we already see this with the Executive and Legislative branches, and even the Judicial branch (especially the Supreme Court)

archive .IS is malicious
Someone made a bunch of noise about the archive.is/ph/li maintainer being anonymous and how they preferred this for their personal privacy. Knowing this, the individual still felt the need to make noise when there was already was some, which resulted in repercussions. The maintainer even stated they’re glad Wikipedia wants to strip archive.is/ph/li of their pages as hopefully it’ll lead to Wikipedia archiving their pages themselves.
Due to the functionality needed for archiving, archival sites can be used to substantially increase the success of DDoS attacks. But what’s to say they weren’t hit with malware and taken over for a while? This is basically one person’s word vs another and in the big picture that drama doesn’t change how I see the sites function. No one’s perfect and I don’t expect that of anyone, but the site has worked flawlessly for me. But then again, this is just me, so please feel free to provide an alternative archive of the linked webpage for the post!
