The NGOs who train young people to take arrests have no interest in changing anything except for adding more foundation grants to their portfolios.
why are ppl arguing that it’s good to get arrested? i rly fail to see the benefits of intentional arrest as a tactic. is it necessary to sometimes risk arrest while doing everything in ur power to avoid it? yeah. but guys arrest is BAD, it’s isolating, traumatizing, & unhelpful

liberals confuse "campaigning" with "organizing" and always will. they don't organize anything - they run campaigns around candidates and election cycles. their ability to "organize" anything is limited to those campaigns and that's why their "resistance" withers in the interim.
Organizing under Biden has been much more difficult because liberals hate leftists. Organizing around Palestine has cost people jobs and opportunities. Dems in LA increase police budgets & hate poor people.
These libs are punching left at people that are actually on the ground.

I’ve seen some people crediting Walz for Derek Chauvin’s conviction. And I feel like it’s an important time to remind people that a victory like that one, and others like it, only happen because movements of young people, activists, organizers, the community fought for it.

This egotistical "right" or "need to know" is a big part of it. If you are engaged in militant struggle, understand there are things you shouldn't know. Knowing some things would put you at greater risk. Some amount of compartmentalization/siloing is going to be necessary.
The biggest thing people can practice to kill the cop in their heads is just...letting shit go. You don't actually have to know everything about everything and the desire to dig can lead you down bad paths if you don't keep it in check.
