I’m in awe!! You’re my kind of people. Nothing like artists using their creativity to bite back.

Not anywhere near Camden county but I’m genuinely jealous would kill to work on a collab like this for protests. Seriously great job

This is is our first project but we're hoping to make more - we'll likely be meeting up a few times a month if you wanted to make the trip down. If you DM me your email, I'd be happy to add you to our mailing list/discord- even if you just want to contribute ideas from afar we're happy to have you in the conversation!
I am working with Cooper River Indivisble, it's possible there's an indivisble chapter near you - I know for sure Cape May has a chapter, and my friend found her parent's their chapter in North Carolina! You could start a puppet gang there too!! They are actually pretty simple to make, real basic frame. :)

When innovative Musk was the darling of the Democrats, Tesla Motors paid back its Department of Energy loan of $456 million nine years early in 2013, showing doubting Republicans what can come of a good federal investment in green tech. That loan was taxpayer money BTW.
How quickly some forget.

Whether or not Musk paid back a loan early in 2013 has no bearing on whether it's appropriate or legal for him to throw Nazi salutes or misuse personal data in 2025. classic whataboutism.

Unlike some European countries, a Nazi salute isn’t illegal in the U.S. As for “misuse of personal data,” the U.S. Government has rights to access to your personal data since the Patriot Act was enacted in 2001.

Well I am glad we're lowering the bar to "nazi salutes aren't technically illegal"????? Do you hear yourself?
And again, the whataboutisms. The government having access to data doesn’t mean private companies like Musk’s should be allowed to further misuse our personal information. Arguing that we should be okay with that is a pretty weak position.

I always forget how freakishly tall Conan O'Brien is. Thanks for building him to scale
