Would love recs for things to do/see in Oslo, Berlin, and anywhere accessible by train ride during the fall 👀
Aside from the obvious (🖤❤️), other interests are history, nature/hiking, art (but not like big popular museums more so smaller collectives/printshops etc), and literature. Nightlife can get into pretty much anything if the vibe is right, but love dark wave, international, and Arabic. Also anyone I should talk to? Feel free to reach out by DM or email too.

Building on fire in the pearl is mostly out. A firefighter walked up to these cops who have been watching and scrolling their phones for over an hour, handed them each a sticker, and walked away. Still laughing lmfao

yeah.

Closer inspection also shows “kebab remover" and a swastika written and drawn on one of the guns. (Swastika not pictured)

Via @ svartflagg on bsky
In an unconfirmed livestream video of the mass shooting, the shooters appear to both be wearing black sun (nazi) patches and AWD (atomwaffen division) patches. Writings on the gun include the logo for the nazi accelerationst group The Base, the numbers 14 and 88, TND, and the othala rune.

From @npub1eay…y83j on bsky:
There is purported livestream footage of the San Diego mosque shooters committing suicide. You don't need to see that & I recommend avoiding X today.
If verified, it shows patches on a plate carrier; one appears to be a sonnenrad (nazi symbol), the other is hard to make out, maybe AWD.
AWD (atomwaffen division) has been defunct for years now, but remains a powerful symbol for accelerationist youth. There was a recent attempt to revive it that was generally considered a larp, not endorsed by former members & never gained steam. But the mystique is still strong.
A good deal of the youth terror scene is creating little larp groups modelled on AWD, that mostly put their energy into aesthetics before fizzling out. But these youth terror cells are sometimes used as recruitment pipelines for groups like Injekt Division.
Not saying the San Diego mosque shooters were a part of any of this, but if that is indeed an AWD patch it points to possible proximity to such networks.
It's also possible these guys could just be wearing it like edgy branding, like a terror Nike swoop.

thank you! Editing the post to add

Three people were murdered at a mosque in San Diego today in what is being investigating as a hate crime. And already, the same politicians and far right figures who spent years flooding this country with anti-Muslim and anti-Arab rhetoric are pretending this violence came out of nowhere, blaming attendees at the masjid, and even calling for more violence.
Numerous sources say anti-Islamic writings were found in the shooters’ car. Hate speech was reportedly written directly onto one of the guns used in the attack. One of the shooters allegedly left behind a note for his father ranting about “racial pride.” Outside the car where the two shooters were found, there was a gas can marked with SS symbols.
This is what happens when Islamophobia is normalized at every level of politics & media. When Muslim communities are constantly framed as threats. When genocide is justified abroad and hate is cultivated at home.
People love to act shocked after people are killed, but the rhetoric came first. The dehumanization came first. The racist fearmongering came first.
Muslim communities should be able to exist, pray, and gather without being hunted by fascists radicalized by the exact narratives people in power keep pushing.

An updated version to "Recognizing Hate" is out. This article and zine is a reference guide to identify various nazi dog whistles, symbols, and far right groups. It includes a list with brief descriptions of the most active far-right groups currently in the US. The zine will continuously be updated as needed, but the link will not change. PDF & printable zine available at the link below.
There is already an update underway that’ll be finished in the next couple days to include TPUSA and some other information.
This resource is, for the mort part, a nationwide list. Stay posted for guides that'll cover region specific groups around the US with important and necessary context.
The more you learn the more you see. This info helps keep us and our communities safe. As always, forever grateful for the hard work of antifascist researchers. The fruits of their labor is often invisible but quite literally saves lives.

Oregon is so under the radar with its racist history. I understand why people always talk about the south but Oregon should not be overlooked. The PNW in general tbh. This state to this day still has sundown towns. Kkk was highly active here and all of that history really wasn’t that long ago and still has influence. Portland may have a certain reputation but it is a tiny bubble.

he was not charged or arrested. And it happened numerous times.
Portland police have a long history of not only protecting the far right but collaborating with them, including exchanging text messages with far right that included information on the location of anti fascists. The police union here also has a dark history that’s worth reading about. Formed in ‘42 and was the first successful police union in the country. The first president of the union, Otto Meiners, was a literal Nazi and a a former member of the pro Nazi German American Bund.
Portland police also used to have a “red squad” which was tasked with beating the shit out of and infiltrating, and surveilling labor organizers, communist, anarchists and lefty activists. There was lots of overlap between police in this squad and the Oregon KKK. I think it was around 1923 or so it was estimated at least half of the portland police bureau were members of the KKK. PPB still has a “red squad” it’s just not called that anymore and not as transparent about its purpose.
In the 80’s, portland police officers dropped dead possums in front of a Black soul food restaurant. Also in the 80’s, after Portland police murdered a Black man by putting him in a chokehold, cops sold "don't choke 'em, smoke 'em" t-shirts from one of the precincts on the day of his funeral.
In 2000 a PPB cop placed a shrine dedicated to Nazi soldiers at a public park. The city protected him after this and gave him a promotion almost 10 years later. Even after admitting he wore nazi uniforms and collected memorabilia he was never fired. He even received awards.
After Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson murdered Michael Brown, at least 3 PPB cops altered images of their police badges to say "I am Darren Wilson”
I could go on.. If you know about Oregon’s racist and dark history this probably isn’t a surprise but if not I highly recommend reading about it.

Unsure if coincidental or related to the newly announced “rose city patriots” but today in Portland, OR at Gabriel Park, a group of far right assholes showed up for a pro ICE flag wave by the skatepark.
I don’t know if Peter was there atm, but other fash in attendance included violent far right instigator and propagandist/live-streamer Tommy Allen, Brian Veach (aka Tinkerton), Skyler Jernigan, Shane Carroll and more. All those named have a history of violence and harassment. In 2020 skyler shot a gun out of a car window after harassing protesters, Shane Carroll who I have recently posted about is extremely unstable and has pulled a gun on people outside of the pdx ICE facility numerous times as well as assaulted people, Tinkerton maced someone outside of the ICE facility point blank in the face who was in a wheelchair about a month ago, has a history of domestic violence and harassing children on live streams. All involved with “patriot corner”
The far right assholes were constantly harassing random people at the park today and maced a woman for talking shit to them.

Far right instigator and grifter Peter Walter Patrick (aka Conspiretard), of Coos Bay, Oregon has taken to social media to claim an end to “Patriot Corner.” For those unfamiliar, that’s what the far right assholes have been calling the area at the Portland, OR ICE facility where the far right tends to gather as people protest against ICE. They frequently instigate altercations, start fights, and spew hateful rhetoric and slurs as obnoxiously as possible while manufacturing content and false narratives for their live streams and Twitter feeds.
He is claiming an end to this chapter and the beginning of what they are now calling “Rose City Patriots” (which lol because barely any of them are even from rose city). Their stated goal is to “stand firmly against Antifa” and attend more events and disrupt more protests outside of the ICE facility.
Not sure how much will actually change considering this group has already been showing up to other events outside of ICE in Portland. And although they have been relatively small, they have still been both violent and disruptive. Also worth noting with this shift the attempt to recruit more fascists. So just something to be aware of and be on the lookout for.
A few months ago Peter dressed up in a skull mask to menace children and families at a Coos Bay community dance and Pride event. He arrived with two other fash assholes, Chris Sims and Daniel Vrosh (Danny Rebel). They harassed the Pride Prom and drag show and attempted to intimidate attendees and event staff. The two people he showed up with (who are from Washington) also have quite the track record of inciting violence and harassing people. Including filming and harassing children during school walk outs. The three of them showed up to disrupt the All Ages Pride Prom Drag Show after a call to counter it was put out by right wing extremist Chris Tough aka "Himwho.” Chris has a long history of being affiliated with the areas far right street fighter types, including Proud Boys, Patriot Prayer, and threepers.

Please note that the facility has misspelled their name, in order for Malik to receive letters at the moment, please spell their name Malik Muhammed

Malik Muhammad was effectively disappeared inside the prison system for over a week.
No clear answers. Just contradictions from the Oregon Department of Corrections and other facilities.
They were finally located because Malik was able to send a letter. They are now in a South Carolina prison, thousands of miles from their community and lawyer.

Malik Muhammad, who received the harshest sentence tied to the 2020 George Floyd uprisings, has effectively been disappeared by the state.
Prison officials continue to dodge calls, contradict each other, and refuse to say where Malik is or why.
This isn’t just neglect, it’s political repression, retaliation, and state violence.

Strategy. Right after I sent that last post state troopers came in on a riot van and formed a line with PPB bike cops. Heavy push. They are trying to push everyone to Moody and saying this area is closed. They’ve been quite aggressive. Clearly coordinated with Feds.

About 30,000 people out in Portland, OR for No Kings.
A few hundred are now gathered at the ICE facility. Things were quiet and people were chanting when suddenly DHS came out and made an arrest. People pushed forward and forced them to retreat back into the building. Quite a few projectiles thrown. Surprisingly no munitions from Feds

New- In October 2025, far-right influencer Nick Sortor was arrested at a Portland anti-ICE protest for disorderly conduct. The same incident that started the ridiculous widespread rumors that “Portland Police are antifa.” On Monday, he came back to Portland as a witness, lying on the stand and testifying against a local protester he claimed attacked him.
Video played in court showed Sortor as the aggressor. The defendant, who never even made physical contact with him, was found not guilty.

Just want to emphasize I do not say any of this to fear monger. This level of surveillance might not become more widespread and I hope it doesn’t. But I think people’s fears are understandable and maybe some insight into other people’s experiences from things that have already been happening will help folks feel better prepared. Only reason I share any of this

I get that but also the insane surveillance and questioning has already been happening to people and it’s not a far reach to think it could escalate. Nothing wrong with being prepared before if/when it becomes more widespread.

I mentioned this incident on here when it happened, so it’s up somewhere… but another thing to consider is clothing.
While I was waiting for an explosives specialist to come inspect my belongings one time while going through security, someone else with DHS approached me with a clipboard and circled me as he documented all of my visible tattoos.

Some questions I have been asked, along with people I know who were targeted and harassed when flying post 9/11
Again, doesn’t mean it’s going to happen to you, but something to consider since you might not be allowed through without cooperating:
Where are you going
Are you traveling with anyone
Who are you going to see at destination
What are you going to do at destination
How much cash did you bring
How much money do you plan on spending
Did you bring gifts for anyone
Did anyone send gifts back with you
Where are you staying (sometimes exact address)
Who are you staying with
How did you book your accommodations (sometimes they request to see receipts)
How will you be traveling while there (car, public transit, etc)
Have you been there before
While some of these are not uncommon for international travel, many of these have been asked while traveling domestically too. On one of my most recent flights, I was asked a lot of these questions very informally. A dude with DHS was pretending to shoot the shit and it almost felt like flirting (but was very transparently questioning me)

2026-03-23 18:40:30 CET

- reply

that’s my understanding as well. For now anyways. People seem to just be planning for escalations as well as not trusting what they say the intent is.
And technically yes, in a hypothetical world where laws and constitutional rights mean anything. But that is not our reality. So I would exercise caution and safety regardless, and always don’t say a word. Saying that and requesting a lawyer if need be is fine but rule number 1 is every day is stfu Friday.
No biometrics, strong passwords and logged out of socials etc is a good move.

2026-03-23 18:28:59 CET

Seeing a lot of “how to prepare” type posts for ICE at airports, which is great… but almost every post I’m seeing has said to turn off biometrics (great) and turn your phone off completely while going through security.
As someone who has been given an insanely difficult time at airports the past 3 years, please don’t rely on turning your phone off alone. It might work for some people, but I’m not allowed past security without showing all of my electronics turn on, and they have to remain on until I get through.
I have quite a few posts detailing my experiences. If it’s helpful I can try to dig them up and reshare. I know it won’t be the same for everyone, but what I go through is pretty intense and maybe getting an idea of some of the things they do will help.

This post on bsky has footage of Shane and co assaulting someone right in front of portland police after people protested at city hall on January 27th
The police watched for a while before eventually pulling Shane and the other far right folks off the person. None were arrested. IIRC PPB temporarily confiscated his gun (which at this point he had already brandished multiple times) and gave it right back.
No one paying attention should be surprised when police don’t do anything or even protect the far right. And especially portland police who have a long and ugly history of protecting and working with the far right.

yes says Oregon in OP. he shows up frequently to instigate and be violent. It’s not his first time pointing guns at protesters or assaulting people in front of police. IIRC after he beat someone in front of cops at city hall on Jan 27 they very briefly confiscated his gun but gave it right back. Never arrested
He shows up with and is friends with quite a few far right folks with similar violent histories/behavior in the PNW.

nope. And as mentioned in OP, it was not his first time doing so. On January 27th him and a few other right wingers ganged up and beat a protester right in front of Portland police who also do nothing then, despite them watching the right wingers throw punches, kicks, and mace.

2026-03-23 00:59:48 CET

Far right agitator Shane Carroll, who is extremely unstable and easily triggered, once again brandished his gun outside the ICE facility in Portland, OR last night. This time he was pointing his gun at street medics and de-escalators. This is at least the 4th time he has done this that I’m aware of. #pdx #portland

New- On October 6, 2025, a memorial by the Hillel chapter at Lewis & Clark College in Portland sparked intense emotional reactions from students. Featuring photos of Israeli hostages and a sign about the October 7 attacks, the display was criticized for its misleading language, with some students labeling the organization as “proudly Zionist.”
Unlike previous instances that had drawn outrage and similar responses without significant consequences, this time was different. Two students—an Arab Muslim and a Black Jewish student—were suspended for challenging the memorial by attempting to remove it and posting images of Palestinian martyrs. This marked a significant escalation in disciplinary actions against political activism on campus.

Solidarity in these times is crucial.
Be loud, be proud, and support antifascists.

Jurors have reached a verdict for 9 defendants regarding the Prairieland Detention Center noise demonstration in Texas.
This case marks the first time the government has filed terrorism charges against “Antifa." Legal experts have been raising alarms over prosecutors’ theory — arguing defendants, including some who were not even at the demonstration, are part of an organized criminal “Antifa cell” and broader conspiracy.
The first charges in the Prairieland case were filed weeks after the Trump administration designated antifa as a domestic terror group last September.
The nine defendants faced a total of 65 outrageous charges that include attempted murder, aiding terrorists and weapons charges.
The verdict:
Riot-
Autumn Hill - guilty
Zachary Evetts - guilty
Benjamin Song - guilty
Savanna Batten - guilty
Meagan Morris - guilty
Maricela Rueda - guilty
Elizabeth Soto - guilty
Ines Soto - guilty
Providing material support to terrorists-
Autumn Hill - guilty
Zachary Evetts - guilty
Benjamin Song - guilty
Savanna Batten - guilty
Meagan Morris - guilty
Maricela Rueda - guilty
Elizabeth Soto - guilty

Autumn Hill - guilty
Zachary Evetts - guilty
Benjamin Song - guilty
Savanna Batten - guilty
Meagan Morris - guilty
Maricela Rueda - guilty
Elizabeth Soto - guilty
Ines Soto - guilty
Attempted murder of an officer (three counts) -
Benjamin Song - guilty
Autumn Hill - not guilty
Zachary Evetts - not guilty
Meagan Morris - not guilty
Maricela Rueda - not guilty
Discharging a firearm during a violent crime (three counts) -

Meagan Morris - not guilty
Maricela Rueda - not guilty
