Hell yeah that's awesome. Thank you for doing that organizing work! May your recognition happen quickly and management fold during contract negotiations.

Montana is just 3 drunk drivers and a cow in a trenchcoat.

Who cares about losing all of your income if you might get $10 of carboard cheese bread?

For real though are these just naïve people or are they HR shills?

Liberals only recognize resistance as a fruitless aesthetic. They can't imagine building or wielding power outside of the electoralism that us to this current state.

The Biden admin actually got the ball rolling on removing the de minimis exception. It just synced up with Trump's tariff threats.

it feels like a prelude to the violence

This is the violence. It can escalate, but dehumanizing immigrants and trans people (on top of and extending anti-blackness) is already violence as embodied by ICE raids and deportations, bans on participation and forced detransitioning.

I understand that you would not intend to undermine or disagree with what I just said. I just want to emphasize that violence has already started and has been here.

How much do you want to bet that 100% was chosen because it sounds like "maximum possibke tariff" even though that isn't what it means?

Do a gun safety training with the most competent and least right wing group you can. A good course should require several hours (6-8) of training including theory, practice with fake guns, practice with unloaded real guns, and instruction and practice with real guns and rounds. This is approximately the minimum standard for the NRA so think about what this implies about the places trying to run two hour one-and-done places.

Gun safety training is a good baseline because you do not actually need to own a gun to do it but you will be prepared if you later encounter a firearm or find yourself wanting to buy one soon.

If you do buy a gun, train with it regularly at a range.

I don't think those are incompatible. The former tends to lead to the latter, particularly those unwilling to question their own experience being propagandized.
