You'll hear self-avowed progressives call for things like more funding for the FBI to "monitor domestic extremist groups." In their imagination this will be used to target Proud Boys etc. In reality it will just deepen the surveillance state that harms Black & brown communities
IMPORTANT: In the coming weeks expect Democrats to push respond to this moment by pushing for:
-more surveillance
-more policing
-more Internet censorship
This is the exact opposite of what we need to do. We need to address this problem at its root: systemic racism & injustice
I think she's saying this in response to libs calling for more funding for Police/FBI to monitor domestic terrorists
