Alexander is an actual community defender. If you don't know what he is referring to, here is a background.

People often say leftists are LARPing online, but Alex walks the walk. His political persecution was undeserved and he's a community hero.

There are very few I admire more.

Forcibly returning a #refugee or #asylum-seeker to a home country where they may face #torture or #persecution will no longer be highlighted, nor will serious #harassment of #HumanRights organizations.

Acc/to an editing memo & other documents…, #State Dept employees are directed to "streamline" the reports by stripping them down to only that which is legally required. The memo says the changes aim to align the reports w/current #US #policy & "recently issued #ExecutiveOrders."

🎺 So he’s actually going for specific lawyers as well as destroying The Rule Of Law. These are the actions of a criminal despot.

—Today, President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order to suspend security clearances held by individuals at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP pending a review of whether such clearances are consistent with the national interest," the White House said in a fact sheet.

ABC News · Trump targets law firm Paul Weiss, restricting government accessBy Kelsey Walsh

"On the morning of March 3rd, I was notified of an online report about me. An obscure AI-powered right-wing Zionist platform called “Jewish Onliner” published a report falsely accusing me of being a “terrorist”. Rather than defend me, the Yale Law School moved within less than 24 hours of learning about the report to place me on leave."

I think we can safely use the term "political persecution" for what is happening in the US.

The #indigenous people 'breathing last breath' in #Putin's war 4,000 miles from home

by Josh Leyton, February 28, 2025

"One of the world’s oldest continuous communities is ‘breathing its last breath’ as some of its few remaining men die fighting for #Russia more than 4,000 miles away in #Ukraine.

"The #Yupik are among the threatened #IndigenousPeoples in the remote far north-east of the federation whose numbers are being further depleted by Vladimir Putin’s war.

[...]

"Recruits from a #ReindeerHerding community around 2,000 miles from the frontline are among those who have been conscripted or promised large payments to join the Kremlin’s war machine.

"The fate of those being mobilised, who are mainly drawn from the north, Siberia and far east, was revealed last week by the testimony of a 19-year-old soldier taken prisoner by Ukraine."

From 2021: #Indigenous Leaders Speak Out About #Criminalization and #Silencing by #Putin Administration

"Indigenous organizations in Russia, allied organizations, and #CulturalSurvival have released an Open Letter to the Putin administration sounding an alarm about the growing intimidations and reprisals against #IndigenousActivists and rights defenders in Russia.

"These attacks are exemplified by the recent illegal detention of activist #AndreiDanilov (#Sámi) in the #Murmansk region. Danilov, Director of the Sámi Heritage and Development Foundation, was detained on August 29, 2021. Andrei Danilov was unlawfully detained by the police after, fearing for his safety, he refused to present his belongings for inspection without witnesses. He was detained for five days, charged with 'failure to comply with the lawful order of a police officer.'

"Danilov’s arrest is just one of the latest incidents in a series of acts of harassment against Indigenous activists and rights defenders in Russia in recent years. Days before, another Indigenous rights defender #StepanPetrov was declared a 'foreign media acting as a foreign agent' in the Republic of #Sakha on August 20, 2021. The 2012 Russian law on foreign agents, originally created to restrict international funding to Russian NGOs, is now being used to target individuals. Stepan Petrov (Sakha) is the first Indigenous person in Russia to receive the 'foreign agent' label. Petrov chairs the nonprofit group #Yakutia – Our Opinion, which is well-known in the region of the Republic of Sakha for their human rights work. The activist submitted numerous appeals to the United Nations calling on the Russian government to adopt the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (#UNDRIP) and to support civil society in Russia."
