the idea we are in a particularly extreme era of protest is fucking hilarious
in the 1600s, we beheaded our own monarch
in the 1920s, revolutionary unionists were derailing scab trains
in the 1990s, there was mass non-payment of poll tax
we're in a very meek era, if anything
We have entered a new era of extreme protest in the UK that demands a renewed commitment to uphold and defend democratic norms from our political leaders to re-establish deterrence against this political vandalism

Boris Johnson welcomes fighters from Ukraine’s neo-Nazi Azov Battalion to the UK parliament.
The battalion’s founder Andriy Biletsky said Ukraine should “lead the white races of the world in a final crusade…against Semite-led Untermenschen.”

we really need to kill this idea that small businesses are inherently good, when many of them actually have even worse exploitation than larger companies
this is the issue with vague internet "leftism" rather than practical class analysis rooted in real-life workplace organising
shoplifting is based but if you're shoplifting from small business/black owned business/native owned business/etc you're missing the entire point of shoplifting. don't steal from the poor. take back from the rich. pirate disney movies, hack your 3DS. make your own fucking coffee.

even as an anarchist myself, I have often wondered whether all the "cover your face at all times"/"don't wear distinctive clothing"/etc. pieces of advice were overkill but tbh this is a vindication of that approach and we should take notes
Remember this: Hind's Hall defendants had their charges dismissed and got away with no felonies because they carefully obstructed all the security cameras in the building and were masked/blocked up. NY mask bans are a direct repressive response.
