Small acts of kindness and love are important and effective, but sometimes a preemptive strike is necessary in the interest of life, freedom, and protecting innocents.
Of course, the crop will be harvested for fiber only. 😀
Must be really bad when they also wear 2A t-shirts and can quote Orwell from memory.
Good insight and excellent advice.
Law means very little anymore anywhere other than as a mechanism to accelerate the powerful getting what they want while the majority of primates gaze mindlessly elsewhere between sips of Kool-aid.

Fuck all governments - and the authoritarian shitbags they attract and empower.
In most times and places freedom lies on only one side of the fence.
secular transcendental - for a couple of decades - used to do twice a day but gradually ended up at once a day.
Fuck all governments everywhere.

I’ve had to do it three times (yeah, I’m old) and it’s sad and painful, but your gentle, caring presence when it’s time is the last gift you can give them. Blessings.

While you were busy making fun of the UK for criminalizing free speech, the UN finalized its Cybercrime Convention which will overrule bank secrecy and criminalize hacking, whistleblowing, and security research.
The convention, which was finalized last friday, drastically expands government surveillance powers and enables the widespread sharing of personal data between UN member states.
The convention mandates the identification, tracing, confiscation and seizure of "proceeds of crime, property, equipment or other instrumentalities" and the collection of real-time traffic and content data on behalf of requesting member states.
It further mandates member states to establish criminal offences for "the concealment or disguise of the true nature, source, location, disposition, movement or ownership of or rights with respect to property" and "the conversion or transfer of property [...] for the purpose of concealing or disguising the illicit origin of the property" when committed intentionally.
As the Electronic Frontier Foundation explains, the convention includes "documents saved on personal computers or notes stored on digital devices. In essence, this means that private unshared thoughts and information are no longer safe. Authorities can compel the preservation, production, or seizure of any electronic data, potentially turning personal devices into spy vectors regardless of whether the information has been communicated".
While the treaty defers most articles to the governance of local laws, it states that states "shall not decline to act [...] on the ground of bank secrecy".

It’s time for a decentralized evergreen technical manual/treatise, “Asymmetrical Resistance to Tyranny: Tactics, Technologies, Methods, and Timing.”
“Presencs,” of course being one of those non quantifiable and vaguely-defined words subject to multiple interpretations, some of which keep life interesting.
Fuck’em all indeed! With barbed wire-wrapped rebar dipped in creosote.
