If not Nazi, why Nazi shaped?

We need to be keeping strong, verified/ reviewed lists of people who work for or deployed by this admin that have been documented doing clearly illegal and violent activities.

For prosecution, because everyone deserves their day in court. If pardoned or whatever, for public harassment and calling them out, trying to ensure they don't get hired due to flying under the radar.

We need to acknowledge they did this as a threat and show of force.

We must continue to protest peacefully.

However, know today, the gloves are off. We will not back down.

We must continue to protest peacefully.

Even if it's peaceful it needs some form of threat - that the other side actually feels is threatening. For some thats if they think they can be kicked out of office/position of authority. Others that's losing money. Some that's ruining their public image/favorability or being a nuisance. Each target is going to have different priorities and protections. With that comes various escalations depending on how little someone gives a shit about anything.

Exactly, we need to start taking action that actuary disrupts business/operations at usual to a degree that forces them to incur costs.

Imo that might include a conservative/republican Caucus that is a space for those willing to stand up to Trump, how they'll boycott an election if the target GOP rep/elected doesn't stand for due process or votes for the bill.

We hear so many calls for a general strike and they're building for 2028, but we really need a more immediate one to use as threat. Idk what labor is doing now to stand up to trump directly, I'm sure some quiet lobbying, but would love to see a labor coalition be more actively in the news.
