“It’s heroic to not mask up and show bravery, I’m not afraid of jail”

Is a fucking ridiculous statement

Because when you get arrested at an action or protest it’s your comrades who are going to have to fundraise to pay your bail and legal fees.

You do a disservice to the movement with this sort of attitude and actively pick personal glory and pride over the success of the cause.

Don’t be an idiot. Mask up.

Don’t put your friends and family through that shit for cool points. Not being able to contact you, not being able to bond you out, having to basically restart your life from scratch when you lose your job and can’t pay rent. Jail isn’t a badge of honor, it’s a real motherfucker, and it IS avoidable.

The Nazis want you in jail; they’re a LOT more powerful there.

Mask. Up.
