I heard from some buddies who’ve been closely following developments that the shooter was not only aided by the pigs, but thanked too. Which, paints a really grim picture. The pigs understand that they do not possess the power or ability to put uprisings down, and are instead empowering literal fascist militias to do their work for them. Or in other words, the state is complicit in allowing terrorist groups to carry out the wills of the state.
People talk of America descending into fascism but it already is a fascist state and has been since at least ever since I learned what fascism is. This is just another example of that but I think the comrades here know that already.
Its definitely a scary situation. A comrade of mine at a protest a few years back, doing some recon by staying close to one of the patriot militias we opposing, saw cops giving a manila file folder to one of the patriot militia leaders, probably a “face sheet” pointing out who the cops considered their main targets. They have and def will continue to outsource assassinations if they can get anyone “patriotic enough” to do it.
I do not know the rules on here when it comes to advocating for certain responses so I won’t say anything yet but what I want to ask is what the hell are we doing? The fascists have the upper hand here, and those “silent majority” simply think that all uprisings are bad and should only be peaceful. Because workers definitely didn’t shed blood for the 8 hour working day, because they didn’t shed blood for maternity leave or to remove underage children from factories. The fascists know exactly what they’re doing and what do we do? The Black Panther Party had the right idea of how to “respond” and all the leftists, all of us could only sit by while our brothers and sisters get murdered in vain without the proper response. The state won’t do it so it’s up to us.
I hope that was vague enough but it probably wasn’t, if it was too much to get eyes on this site then I’ll delete my post but till then that’s as much as I could vent.
This should surprise no one. In every imperialist intervention going back to at least Vietnam (when it was announced as stated policy) that the US would wind down it’s front facing role and begin the ‘Vietnamization’ of the Vietnam War, thereby using the Vietnamese themselves as the counter insurgency force. What are we currently living through other than an insurgency by BLM/Left/Anarchist groups joining forces to make the empire bleed?
