Rather than be civil neighbors in the community, the Maglios who own Station Bar at 16th and Mckean thought it was appropriate to smash up their neighbors homes for reporting them for breaking covid guidelines. They have also made several statements against Black Lives Matter and several racist statements online. There is currently a coalition of 30 neighbors working to shut them down. Do not bring them your business.

“New York Attorney General Letitia James has filed a lawsuit against the New York City Police Department, citing ‘a pattern of using excessive force and making false arrests against New Yorkers during peaceful protests’ that sought racial justice and other changes.”

As we move into a period of increased fash and LEO activity ahead of and possibly following the inauguration, the RUST admins want to encourage our communities to keep each other safe and updated. RUST is not an organizing entity, but we want to make sure people have whatever resources and info we can provide to keep themselves and their networks safe in the days to come.

Please use the local RUST broadcast channels to stay up to date on info we receive and share and the public relay chats to help coordinate support responses if needed. Remember to message @RUSTcontactbot with verifiable intel that should be shared! This can range from road closure/block locations to positive IDs of known bad actors in specific neighborhoods or communities.

We Protect Us. Stay safe.

Good morning! Please share this channel with your networks and encourage your friends to follow our updates. We will be monitoring the situations in several cities today.

Many cities have increased police presence and some cities are expecting fash rallies. If you see something message @RUSTContactBot with verifiable information on traffic closures or hot spots to avoid.

Hey New Jersey, you got an autonomous team now t.me/NJRUST

Good morning! Telegram is deleting all the commonly used leftist channels probably as a way to appear balanced in the wake of the mass deleting of the far right Terrorgram pages. Don't worry, we'll make a new network. Maybe not on Telegram maybe on Matrix or somewhere else. Keep your eyes and ears open. We Protect Us.

Since Telegram is deleting RUST and other non-violent Leftist community rooms in what appears to be retaliation against the mass reporting of the far right "Terrorgram" channels, the admins will be working on create a new network on a more decentralized platform. Please follow the Twitter account @NetworkRust for updates.

Please share that message widely in your communities and networks!

RUST STATUS UPDATE:

Many of the RUST channels that were down this morning, including this one, are coming back up. We assume this is because TOS reports were reviewed and found to be false but can’t know for sure. We also cannot guarantee against future shutdowns.

Please follow the Twitter account @NetworkRust in case of future channel disruption. That account will be used for updates and information as needed.

Update on smoke seen in DC. related to a fire at a houseless encampment. Fire has been extinguished, but for anyone interested in helping out the houseless folks affected, check out this tweet.

When I first started doing comms work, it was because paramilitary organizations killed over 1000 people in the nation annually. It was to provide a consolidation of information on an opensource platform. Now some RUST channels are being censored without explanation of what terms of service we broke.

All of our communications are Public. We dont use encrypted radio channels. We dont provide information that would be considered illegal. We only distribute what is legal. Just as you can film a police officer and national guard on live stream, you are legally allowed to disclose their location. Just like you can listen to public data like locations of police and terror attacks from public radio communications, you can legally distribute that data. There is no federal law broken by these communications and only some local/state governments prohibit the use of police radio to commit a crime which we are not doing.

We only are using it to disclose paramilitary mobilization Police, guard, and private militia, and state where their location, numbers, and tactics are so that people across the United States and Globally can stay safe from state and social violence. Only we can protect ourselves. There are more Americans killed by police and militia groups than Americans killed in foreign wars. We have arms races in our neighborhoods with police and RUST is a defense, not a terror attack. Remote Uprising Support Teams are civilian organized, and defend by reporting on mobilized groups actively so you know when to evacuate, shelter in place, or perform your direct action. When civilians are under attack, autonomous activists will always rise up to protect.

For those who would like to defend our work. @durovschat is the chat where telegrammers can talk to the admins of Telegram
