What good does it do to highlight random citizens? Of it was businesses and politicians. But this does not help. Is there any confirmation that these people are trumpers.

Nope. Just pictures of people's homes and addresses and whatever anyone wants to put on the description. Take a picture of your neighbor that took your parking spot and say they shoot at people and see what happens! Fun for the whole family!

What an awful, ugly idea.

The pictures are required to show something connecting them. Fascist flags, signs, dogwhistles.

Still just random people. Not cops or government officials or something.

Sounds like it's as random as the list this sherrif's putting together, don't it?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

And you want to be like them? Focus on cops and ceos and government officials otherwise it's pointless

[–] [email protected] -5 points 1 day ago (2 children)

you don't get it. it takes people to elect the officials. the people are the base of support. they need to be blacklisted. it's time to clean up our own back yard. this is the only way to stop fascism, corporate overreach and eco dystopia.

To what end? Violence? Are you going to be okay with hurting their children too?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well the way things are currently, is that certain people get murdered and shit on for super arbitrary reasons, so uhh.

Yeah. Fuck em

i'm okay with any solution that provides a sustainable future in which we protect the quality of life for all living things. there is no perfect path towards that future, but without one, we will destroy no only ourselves but so many innocent creatures.

we are currently in a failed state of humanity. we need a reset.

How do you propose to "clean up" these people? I'm getting chills reading your comment.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I would not doubt that like around where I live, they fly huge ass "Trump 2024" flags on their property making it obvious who they support.

I agree it doesn't help, though.

Fascists hide when they feel threatened. Don't give them the chance
