A couple of weeks ago I asked the organizers at our local weekly tesler protest how many people they had counted. They'd put it at about 300.

Today we had significantly more than that. If they were right about the 300 then, then I'd say today was 450-500.

Most of these are happening every Saturday. There are sooo many signs that they all pretty much get lost in the crowd, so don't worry if you don't have one. Just go to the closest event and have fun. Lots of good vibes, cars honking in support as they drive by, etc. We had a live band for a while today, then they were just cranking out fun tunes from their big speakers.

It's totally worth taking a couple hours out of your Saturday to go.

This kind of thing is obviously going to have a chilling effect on people here on visas taking an active role in any demonstrations, marches, or other types of organized resistance. That's the goal.

It's passed time for any citizens that have been cheering on the demonstrators from the comfort of their armchair to get up, go outside, and participate.

You don't need a clever sign to hold up. Just be there.

If you drive past a demonstration and wherever you were going can wait an hour or so, stop, park, and go join them.

You can find lots of opportunities to protest near you at https://www.mobilize.us/?is_virtual_flexible=false

Then, when there aren't any demonstrations currently going on near you to participate in and you're back in your armchair...

Wouldn’t the only form available be the screenshots?

Except everything that was said after Goldberg left the chat. That's probably all already deleted.

They started the thread with 1hr disappearing messages. Edit: 1 week, but still

This alone should be sufficient evidence to send these fucknuts to prison.

kill enough of the biters, and they may evolve into a species that just doesn’t bite us.

Or they evolve into a species that still bites us but is unaffected by this drug. Bonus feature: the new species is also a prime carrier for Ebola, or something.

Just look at our current secretary of defense.

Feel free to offer your own brilliant alternatives that would be a more effective use of their time. You must have at least one since you're so confident that this isn't it.

Asked to verify my identity with a code to my phone - standard

No, absolutely not standard. This is where red flags should go up. If your bank texts you a code when you log in, then that's what the scammers are doing (trying to log in as you, triggering the website to send you the code to confirm that it's you logging in (except it's not you, it's them), and then getting you to tell them the code so they can finish logging into your account.

You can't unleash an unhinged tirade if it was never hinged or leashed to begin with.

What, you expect journalists to use the correct words to unambiguously convey a concept?

Nitpick: GPS satellites are not in geosynchronous orbit and are at about 12,540 miles up.

Doesn't really negate your point, though. That's still a lot further away than a ground based system would be.

Something tells me that if one were to look back through his public statements to the media there would be at least one rant about Democrats harboring pedophiles, or something.

Confirmation: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Holmberg

Raymon Everett Holmberg (born December 10, 1944) is a former educator, school counselor, Republican North Dakota state senator, convicted felon, and sex offender.

Once tied for the longest-serving state legislator in the United States, Holmberg resigned from the senate in 2022 (after 45.5 years) upon investigation into his alleged child sex tourism and receipt of child pornography. In 2024, he pled guilty to charges of the former.

Possible people responsible for Tesla vandalisms.

• Protesters that got carried away.
• Bugaloo Bois, or other right-wing militia groups, trying to frame peaceful protesters as violent and/or just stir shit up, as is part of their M.O.
• Trump administration lackies trying to frame peaceful protesters as violent to justify police crackdowns.
• Tesla employees committing insurance fraud whilst trying to frame peaceful protesters as violent.

Also keep in mind it doesn’t have to be just one. With multiple events of vandalism, all of these (and more) could be true at the same time.

Yup, hadn't thought of that. Sigh.

Republican Utah Senator John Curtis said on Meet the Press on Sunday: "... If we don't touch it, it touches itself."

This smells a bit like an orphan crushing machine. Is this just a private company offloading moderation duties onto already overworked public school teachers?

Nice!

Narrator: "They weren't."

No mention of if Mr Goldberg checked the list of everyone else in the group to see if there was anyone else added that probably shouldn't be there. That would have been a good idea.
