I heard an OpSec horror story today.
A group of (white) women who are organizing to feed brown neighbors who are afraid to leave the house due to ICE are *filming* their food compilation efforts, *from inside a member’s home*, and *streaming it on Facebook.*
If you want to get your ass followed by the Feds to your undocumented neighbor’s house when you deliver that food, and see that neighbor get arrested and deported, please continue.
There has never been a more critical moment to understand that what you post on social media can get people killed.
If you are doing any form of service to people at risk right now, do not, under any circumstances, advertise it.
Feb 4, 2026 02:18We know the Feds are in cahoots with Meta and that Meta is sharing information with the Feds to target people.
Signal chats for organizing. Nothing else. Literally nothing else. No photos, no video, no posting to social. Full stop.
(Also this is a way to make sure no other organizers want anything to do with you, because you are telling everyone that you are not safe. Which is exactly how the story got to me.)
