The Antisocialist Party presidential candidate gave an interview to a podcast closely associated with the ‘boogaloo’ movement that proposes a right-wing uprising against the US government.
That party calls itself "libertarian", but I dispute their entitlement to that term. It is a way of pushing their perverse definition of "liberty" which says that the government should not help people and businesses should be able to gouge without hindrance. They call all positive government activities "socialism", so I think the right term for them is "antisocialists".
Leaders of Amnesty Turkey were convicted of "terrorism" charges based on the assertion that one of them had a certain encryption app on his phone. Although investigation reported he did not even have it.
They were arrested while holding an event with a visiting foreign encryption expert to teach people how to use encryption.

London cops, apparently not thuggish this time, shut down a dangerous rave, but the participants threw bricks at them and broke bones of two.
That the rave was illegal is what authorize the cops to act, but morally it is a minor detail. What does matter morally is that the rave would tend to spread Covid-19. It therefore threatened harm to people in general. For public safety, raves can't be allowed until the Covid-19 problem is licked.
