#DisruptJ20: Call for a bold mobilization against the inauguration of Donald Trump on January 20, 2017

On Friday, January 20, 2017, Donald Trump will be inaugurated as President of the United States. We call on all people of good conscience to join in disrupting the ceremonies. If Trump is to be inaugurated at all, let it happen behind closed doors, showing the true face of the security state Trump will preside over. It must be made clear to the whole world that the vast majority of people in the United States do not support his presidency or consent to his rule.

Trump stands for tyranny, greed, and misogyny. He is the champion of neo-nazis and white Nationalists, of the police who kill the Black, Brown and poor on a daily basis, of racist border agents and sadistic prison guards, of the FBI and NSA who tap your phone and read your email. He is the harbinger of even more climate catastrophe, deportation, discrimination, and endless war. He continues to deny the existence of climate change, in spite of all the evidence, putting the future of the whole human race at stake. The KKK, Vladimir Putin, Golden Dawn, and the Islamic State all cheered his victory. If we let his inauguration go unchallenged, we are opening the door to the future they envision.

Trump�s success confirms the bankruptcy of representative democracy. Rather than using the democratic process as an alibi for inaction, we must show that no election could legitimize his agenda. Neither the Democrats nor any other political party or politician will save us�they just offer a weaker version of the same thing. If there is going to be positive change in this society, we have to make it ourselves, together, through direct action.

From day one, the Trump presidency will be a disaster. #DisruptJ20 will be the start of the resistance. We must take to the streets and protest, blockade, disrupt, intervene, sit in, walk out, rise up, and make more noise and good trouble than the establishment can bear. The parade must be stopped. We must delegitimize Trump and all he represents.
It's time to defend ourselves, our loved ones, and the world that sustains us as if our lives depend on it�because they do.

In Washington, DC
DC will not be hospitable to the Trump administration. Every corporation must openly declare whether they side with him or with the people who will suffer at his hands. Thousands will converge and demonstrate resistance to the Trump regime. Save the date. A website will appear shortly with more details. #DisruptJ20

Around the US
If you can�t make it to Washington, DC on January 20, take to the streets wherever you are. We call on our comrades to organize demonstrations and other actions for the night of January 20. There is also a call for a general strike to take place. Organize a walkout at your school now. Workers: call out sick and take the day off. No work, no school, no shopping, no housework. #DisruptJ20

Around the World
If you are living outside the US, you can take action at US embassies, borders, or other symbols of neocolonial power. Our allegiance is not to �making America great again,� but to all of humanity and the planet. #DisruptJ20

Spread the word. Join the fight. #DisruptJ20

Perhaps read some the speeches Hitler made in 1922 before the NYT wrote that article and then realize you're being an idiot (edit; quoted the wrong post but this is for all of you who have somehow just seen that NYT article)

here is a taste:

LITERALLY HITLER posted:

The Jew never works as a productive creator without the great aim of becoming the master. He works unproductively using and enjoying other people's work. And thus we understand the iron sentence which Mommsen once uttered: 'The Jew is the ferment of decomposition in peoples,' that means that the Jew destroys and must destroy because he completely lacks the conception of an activity which builds up the life of the community. And therefore it is beside the point whether the individual Jew is 'decent' or not. In himself he carries those characteristics which Nature has given him, and he cannot ever rid himself of those characteristics. And to us he is harmful. Whether he harms us consciously or unconsciously, that is not our affair. We have consciously to concern ourselves for the welfare of our own people.

this and Trump is not comparable, several paragraphs before this he gives an in-depth explanation for why DEMOCRACY MUST BE CRUSHED, etc

I keep coming back to this probably because somebody posted a preview on FB of Jay Leno's dumb car show that I watch despite hating both cars and Leno. Anyway, Biden said he had driven three times while VP and this fascinated me because it means the Secret Service really has a lot of control over what the POTUS and VPOTUS do. Considering the fact that they have been protecting 1600 Pennsylvania (poorly at times) for decades, and it had underground bunkers and anti-ballistic countermeasures, can they disallow him from going home every weekend since they cannot possibly protect him as well in NY as they can in DC?

Please, somebody tell me my fantasy of the Secret Service fighting with Trump will come true.

Yeah...for peaceful protests, during which a 20 year old breaks a window and discredits the entire movement.

The problem is that the Trump gendarmes are armed and very much willing to use violence and intimidation. And now they have the full force of the US government behind them.
