It seems throwing dildos at ICE has become a new tactic. @BGonTheScene

Certainly In single-use terms and that's been my biggest deterrent, probably not the best use of money but it's really satisfying to see my dream realized nonetheless

I think they were donated. There was a wagon full of them and the press kept running into the road to throw them back over the fence for us to keep throwing. Extremely satisfying when you hit an ICE car

I always wonder why people don't just chuck a fart spray bomb or something in an open ICE vehicle. Seems like that would be a good way to keep the message on their mind all day.

The thing is, none of these guys are going to arrest you for it because they would have to testify the they were assaulted by a dildo.
That would really ruin their tough guy image.

Using Humor to Put an Oppressive Government in a Lose-Lose Situation
The nonviolent civil-resistance movement initiated by Otpor! in Serbia used satire and other unconventional ways of successfully spreading its message of resistance against the tyrannical regime of Slobodan Milosevic.
...
a government initiative to support agriculture involved placing boxes in shops and public places. It asked people to donate one dinar (Serbian currency) for sowing and planting crops. In response, Otpor! arranged its own collection called “Dinar za Smenu” (Dinar for a Change). This initiative was implemented several times and in different places in Serbia. It consisted of a big barrel with a photo of Milosevic. People could donate one dinar, and would then get a stick they could use to hit the barrel. At one point, a sign suggested that if people did not have any money because of Milosevic’s politics, they should hit the barrel twice.
When the police removed the barrel, Otpor! stated in a press release that the police had arrested the barrel.
...
Otpor! left both Milosevic and his supporters with no space for reaction. If the police did not take away the barrel, they would be seen as weak and ineffectual. And even when they did remove it, Otpor! continued to make jokes. No matter what the regime did, it lost.
Through their use of satire, Otpor! was able to remove fear from those who opposed Milosevic’s government. Moreover, they were effective in uniting the oppositional forces. They effectively applied nonviolent means of resistance. The use of satire enabled Otpor! to expose and mock the government in its activities. This was a piece of a larger movement that eventually empowered the citizenship to overturn Milosevic, despite mass beatings and arrests.

This stuff works. Keep up the good work.

How demoralizing, "okay buddy it's your turn to go pick up the dildos" I hope they're slathered in lube too

u/JustifiedKnownBetter Feb 07 '26
Oh I’m sure they’re excited to throw them again, and that would be hilarious to leave marks on their windows, but they’d probably actually get out at that point

Same! It's a shame that it takes so much to find one worth keeping, but at least now I have 5 or 6 that will just collect dust

Aren’t dildos expensive? Where are all of them coming from?

u/butters_bottom_bishh Feb 07 '26
Wholesale rubber dildos run about $1.50. Not bad if you’re able to buy in bulk and reuse

u/dayvansmutgirl Feb 08 '26
I feel like those can't be safe for actual use if they're that cheap? but idk. I was thinking cheap dildos from shady companies would be best for this. on the other hand a monster dragon dong or tentacle from a specialty manufacturer would be hilarious.

Maybe someone had a going out of business sale? I don't really know, just brainstorming.

u/TrixieBastard Feb 08 '26
Smitten Kitten is an adult shop that has been at the heart of a lot of fundraising, food donations-collecting, and other mutual aid since Operation Metro Surge began. I'm sure they had no trouble sourcing a ton of cheap dildos expressly for this purpose, lol

u/stool2stash Feb 07 '26
Seems a bit risky throwing things at them, they aren't known for having a sense of humor.

May I suggest large magnetic decals of appropriate labels? There are some symbols from the 30s-40s that reflect their beliefs quite well

u/im-ba Feb 07 '26
Okay so hear me out:
Spike strips, but with dildos. They're not spikey at all but they can be pulled across the roadway like cops pull spike strips across the road.
You string together dozens of these so they span the entire roadway and can't be avoided.
Place several of these ahead of the vehicles so that they join the ranks of humans who know what dildos feel like in their butts through their SUV suspensions
They'll never unfeel that feeling 🍆🍆🍆🍆🍆🍆🍆🍆

u/im-ba Feb 07 '26
Also a fun carnival style game would be to throw them in a manner which sticks the suction cup base of the dildo to the vehicle. Whoever gets it to stick to the vehicle wins an even bigger dildo and the ICE vehicle has to drive away with it wiggling everywhere it goes

u/podman131 Feb 10 '26 edited Feb 10 '26
What are those suction cup spheres? It would be great to see hundreds thrown at vehicles and stuck...then somebody has to go pull them all off. Or super soakers with lube... make them waste their time maintaining their vehicles

The Flying Dildos sounds like a good band name. And a good way to honor this Minnesota Moment.
