FYSA: The history of color revolutions and warning signs to recognize today in the United States. THE HISTORY-Serbia in 2000. Georgia in 2003. Ukraine in 2004. Kyrgyzstan in 2005. All these uprisings and movements were textbook “color revolutions.” In each, a color or a symbol unified protestors and gave the movement a brand that could be recognized around the world.

The Intercept published a story yesterday titled “Left-Wing Voices Are Silenced on Twitter as Far-Right Trolls Advise Elon Musk.” Like the article itself the headline is a bit vague on what is happening and why. What is clear is that over the past few days a bunch of well-known anti-fascist accounts have been suspended.
