I’ve been deeply reflecting on the Prairieland sentencing since it was announced yesterday. It’s weighing heavy on my heart. 💔
Imagine spending 30 years in prison for moving a box of zines. Literally. Meanwhile, Jan 6 *actual* domestic terrorists are all pardoned.
This whole idea of antifa being an “organization” or a “cell” is the epitome of fascist totalitarianism propaganda.
In his sentencing statement, Song said “what kind of people are not against fascism?” That’s the question we need to keep pushing. We need to force fascists who pretend they are otherwise to answer that question out in the open. Relentlessly.
Song’s mother said “he’s accepted full responsibility for what actually happened. But he will never accept responsibility for a lie — a government lie made to prosecute innocent people in order to get political persecutions.”
Fuck ICE. Fuck fascism. Fuck dictators. And fuck billionaires.

The sentencing comes three months after a weeks-long trial in which prosecutors argued the group was a "North Texas antifa cell" with anti-ICE and anti-government beliefs.
