"They Can't Beat All of Us"
A Report Back from the #FloridaAbolitionistGathering

#CrimethInc, March 15, 2025

"From February 28 to March 2, hundreds of #abolitionists and #anarchists from across the country converged in Gainesville for the first Florida Abolitionist Gathering (#FAG). Across a passionate weekend of #workshops, films, food, #debate, #ritual, and #protest, the contours of a robust regional #resistance movement came into focus.

"The #intergenerational, heavily #queer and #trans, and strongly multi-issue and anarchist group of abolitionists that converged in Florida articulated an expansive vision of #liberation anchored in the urgent need to dismantle the #PrisonIndustrial complex in all its manifestations. The gathering showed that even as liberals wring their hands about the death of democracy, scrappy groups of organizers continue to fight back—and sometimes win—deep within the belly of the beast."

Over 100,000 protest in Belgrade at an anti-government rally.

More than 100,000 protesters converged in Serbia's capital Belgrade on Saturday in what was likely the largest in a series of anti-corruption demonstrations that have upended the Balkan country in recent months.

Please boost.

"....other countries keep asking why Americans aren't protesting, but we are & have been - the media isn't covering it...."
Protesters! Keep posting everything to social media. Over and over. Everyone, on every platform should be boosting it to help. Hopefully media from other countries will pick it up and we'll hear about it.

Probably a couple of hundred people showed up today at the Tesla showroom in Superior, Colorado to protest the Trump/Musk coup. We were out there for a few hours. Great to see people mobilizing against the fascist takeover of the USA! The showroom actually shut down their rapid charging stations. Let's defund these assholes! #TeslaTakedown #uspol #freespeech #protest

"Why I Joined a Stand Up for Science Rally"

"I have lived as an ME/CFS 'spoonie' for the past 20 years after I got a virus and never recovered. I’ve spent much of the past 10 years of my career advocating for ME/CFS research at the NIH"

"I don’t want to see the same scientific harms that have happened in the ME community become even more widespread across all of science"

“No #democracy movement has ever failed when it was able to mobilize at least 3.5 % of the population to #protest over a sustained period At that scale, most soldiers have no desire to suppress protesters. Why? Because the crowd includes family members, friends, coworkers, and neighbors. With a population of 327 million, the U.S. would need to mobilize about 11.5 million people to assert popular, democratic power on the government.”

3.5%

Big ThinkTo overthrow a tyrant, try the 3.5 Percent SolutionA study of 323 uprisings against repressive regimes yields stunning insights.

There are SO MANY protests taking place in Washington DC these days, but I haven't heard of any that are specifically in opposition to the United States interfering with the sovereignty of Canada, Greenland, and/or Panama. I feel compelled to publicly express strong opposition to the idea of our government invading, annexing, or threatening countries that have done nothing to harm us. Does anyone in Washington DC know of any suitable protests?
