 fuck fascism, we're doing better than them.
 
 their bluff is all bluster, they have no significant community presence, just
 a hundred years of ammunition for small arms and a rag-tag group of
 militia-men who think they're better than invisible vampire assassins
 
 [... what?]
 
 don't worry about it. I got 80 something followers, teehee

 ICE is a bluff. Doing my very best to make them escalate faster than they can
 sustain themselves.

 Raintree forest is full of pine. Straight backs shoot strong and narrow. The
 silent river flows the farthest, the rapid water drowns the most.
 
 ICE is a bluff. In the treaty of equal territory, they can keep to their burgs

 to their inhabitants, homes belong to their housed. Everything else is just
 applied equity.

 If you're radical enough to consider yourself "antifa" then you are probably
 working as hard as you can. I wouldn't ask you to do more.
 
 We must demand that others work for our future as well. It is unreasonable to
 demand so much of us. We must be funded and supported if we are to mobilize,
 and we must have the freedom to move and organize if we are to contest our
 enemies.
