I keep seeing people talking about NSPM-7 which directs all federal agencies to basically monitor, disrupt, preemptively arrest leftist activists.
In my mind this has always been a thing. This isn’t so much a policy change as voicing out loud what the policy has been. Materially US spying and abusing their citizens is pretty much par for the course.
Is this something I am not taking seriously enough or are the libs whipped up into a frenzy again?
DSA members have been going to their meetings without much problem. I imagine that could start to change now. Maybe it gets them to start taking security and opsec seriously, but I doubt it.
I mean, I don’t think Trump’s gonna really interrupt DSA.
I was thinking that he was gonna go for, like, cpusa, or the people protesting on the street.
I don’t even think I’ve heard Trump mention the DSA.
remember he’s a fucking moron who actually believes the propaganda
he’s gonna go after dems, not leftists
Yeah, that’s kind of what I’m thinking. He’s going to go after Democrats.
As far as actual leftist politics go, it’s pretty much par for the course.
And who’s a democrat according to them? Nonwhite, gay, trans, college kids, muslims, homeless people…
Oh definitely, right wingers can totally tell the difference
that’s the exact point they’re making, they think the dems are violent communists
It really doesn’t matter
Other than having ‘communist’ in the name (which ain’t nothing), CPUSA is to the right of DSA.
Oh I know but I don’t expect Trump to know or care. I figured he would target them because of the name communist

That’s got an ACP watermark on it
yeah it has the ACP hammer/sickle logo and RTSG is an ACP account.
the CPUSA hammer/sickle is vertical.
Ah shit, I mixed them up, my mistake.
Fuck, this exactly what those shitheads wanted to happen when they named themselves ACP

they’re salami slicing by going after PSL and related groups first
the DSA-right could panic and gum up the works to prevent the org from acting in solidarity (or split to save their own hides)
other orgs might have their own reasons
meanwhile the dems could start doing their own crackdowns to deal with their left flank and keep the heat off themselves
This. They’ve already named PSL and groups like them in depositions related to ICE. They’re going to start with the most “radical” groups that have less power to withstand, then go after the bigger ones. The old Nazi playbook, first go after the actual commies, then start slicing off trade unions and one at a time go after everyone else.
