The Test of Anarchy
The Paris Commune and ICE vehicles being pelted by chunks of concrete. The Egyptian Revolution and rows of self-driving cars engulfed in flames. The Spanish Civil War and crowds blocking a freeway blanketed with thick clouds of tear gas.

Recent FBI activity in the Seattle Area – Puget Sound Prisoner Support
If you are a participant in the radical left in any capacity, it is important that the people you live with understand that the police and the FBI should not be allowed into the home. You do not need to talk to federal agents, and they cannot gain entrance to your home without a warrant.
-If you find yourself in a situation where they have gained access to you, or your home, work, school, do not talk to them. Even small talk, which feels unimportant, is possibly giving them information they do not need to have. Ask for a card and walk away, do not engage.
-We do not know why this information was not made public by the person targeted or when it was disclosed to SUPER, but we know that people often move from panic and not malice in these types of situations. We implore everyone on the left, individuals and formal organizations alike, to have a set of protocols in place to communicate internally and publicly about visits or attention from federal agents. We are all safer when we don’t keep this info from each other.
Federal repression is not new and the generational historic memory of FBI activity in the PNW leans heavily towards the majority of their tactics being based in intimidation. They want the left in the region to be scared, to pull away from each other, to accuse each other, to not support those targeted–we cannot let any of those things happen.
