sincerity posting about this for a sec: while there is of course plenty of cause to worry about internal repression of left wing movements in the US broadly speaking, this article is nothing new. the specific leaders they’re calling out are already very public facing and have been smeared in right wing rags before, going back to 2023 shortly after Oct. 7th.
being concerned about the ongoing risks of socialist organizing here? understandable. seeing this article as a unique next step in that? nah, that i wouldn’t sweat.
Eh, just because they’ve been public before and nothing bad happened seems naive right now. Things are obviously escalating extremely fast with Trump. The shit happening in Venezuela and fascist tactics at home with ICE and the national guard are proof of that.
But by bringing them up, they’ll be directing public ire to them. It’s the beginning of manufacturing consent to remove all leftist orgs in the US.
Yep, this is what scares me most. There’s a lot of named leaders from anti-war orgs in that article.
They’re all very public and have been for years
