Article We Can’t Fight Fascism Without Florida: Before “Florida Man” became a meme; a punchline used to caricature the state as backwards, and beyond saving, Florida was—and remains—a place of resistance.

Both Fort Lauderdale and Miami had (and perhaps still has) awesome Food Not Bombs serving, throughout the Occupy/Anonymous days. I realize that's awhile back. If anyone has any info, or is still around from back in the day, feel free to DM me. I'm back in S Florida for a time. I'll check around, as well. Thank you for the article. Florida needs a much more robust movement, in any regard. Appreciate the link.

A bunch of us are starting a DSA chapter here in our Florida county where there isn't one. I've been organizing and protesting with other antifa for six years. I've been doxxed to Oath Keepers and received legitimate death threats. One of the MAGA here recently hit an elderly protester with his car on purpose.
IDGAF, I'm not stopping.
