How about a stop buying anything beyond the bare necessities. It is a small offer to make and people could make sure they buy food in advance. A stop buying anything as long as ice is in your state.

I have been doing that for a while now. Every dollar I save puts me that much closer to moving out of this bizarro country.

It's not bizarre it's capitalist The same shit is happening in every other capitalist country This is the inevitable outcome of systemically incentivising and greatly rewarding obscene greed and disregard for life

📌 Scenario: Peaceful Mass Refusal 1. Core Idea Don’t try to confront ICE teams directly (they’re better prepared and legally shielded). Instead, disrupt the broader society to the point where government and political leaders must choose: continue ICE operations or restore social stability. ⸻ 2. Strategies and Actors A. General Strike • Who: unions, teachers, healthcare workers, transportation, tech, and warehouse staff. • How: announced nationwide “stop days” where hundreds of thousands stay home. • Effect: schools close, transport slows, businesses lose revenue → political pressure rises fast. (MLK’s “Poor People’s Campaign” in 1968 aimed for this; in India, Gandhi organized similar hartals — work and shop shutdowns.) ⸻ B. Consumer Strike • Who: the broader public. • How: for a week, buy only basic food, no gas, no luxury purchases. • Effect: sales plummet, businesses lobby the government to change course. ⸻ C. Tax Pressure • Who: especially middle class and small business owners. • How: mass delays in filing taxes, legal stalling tactics. • Effect: federal and local governments feel the revenue shortage immediately.

People have to invent new peaceful ways to protest. In cities, driving slowly on busy would stop the city. Keeping all the toilets at an airport would flying. The society functions because all people cooperate. The only power the masses have they refuse to cooperate.
