This is an example of resistance as culture. It might be a small act but it demonstrates the point.

I think that's something that could work. Things like fashion to mess with facial recognition. Movies or tasks to mess with our algorithms. Distracting facsists with a flag. Culturally, capitalism feeds on the creativity of leftists type people and always has done. We can't feed it anti-capitalism because that just feeds it. So, we have to make fucking with the machine the culture itself and offer something they never can: warmth, community and authenticity.

It's the little things that really add up.

add a Mexican flag to your vehicle
cover your face with a wide brimmed hat and mask
wear t-shirts with faces of Mexican people on it to mess with facial recognition
telephone the ice hotline and report illegals hanging out at a local business, give them the address of a police station or (r) senators office
film every interaction you see and upload it to social media
follow ICE vehicles back to their depots, then follow the agents home and make a note of their address
send printed covertly taken photos of their spouses, parents, and children along with a boxcutter to their office
