No I don't think so. The debate over more over whether or when extralegal political violence becomes justified. I don't think the particulars of this specific case were very important to anyone.

That point was "literal domestic concentration camps for forcefully orphaned children" and we flew right on past it with less fuss/disruption than Occupy Wall Street caused.

Y'all don't need to worry about some vast violent leftist uprising because it just ain't happening. Not on any real scale that could make a difference. The kinds of relationships and communication networks and community infrastructure and mainstream media figures that would need to exist for any real leftist uprising to occur, simply just don't exist anymore. Not in any appreciable sense anyways.

We really are too atomized at this point and that is not going to change soon. We leftists have too fully/quitely accepted that the government is monitoring literally every communication; and as a result no one is willing to have the kinds of discussions that would need to be happening right about now if there was some real potential for a violent leftist uprising. And to be honest, where exactly would this uprising be coordinated without it being discovered and squash long before anything more than a couple of Starbucks Windows get kicked in? You can't have so much as a half-dozen old ladies baking cookies and talking about how awesome pacifism is without the intelligence Services being aware of you and possibly putting a mold and monitor your group.

The intelligence services and law enforcement apparatus in this country would absolutely smash any fledgling leftist uprising long before it posed any significant threat to the established order. As blind as they are to the threat posed by right-wing terrorism, they are as a group hyper focused in on any political organization to the left of Pinochet in this country.

I am glad for all the local and state level races we won in the recent midterms, that is a very good thing and I hope we can build from there. Because there is no violent uprising option- the left in this country by and large just doesn't have the stomach for it and the vast vast vast vast majority won't even contemplate takeing that risk until it is long past entirely too late.

I don't think anyone was worried about a massive wide-scale leftist uprising so much as random people doing things like targeting the families of Fox News hosts. The meaningful takeaway of the past 2 years is that you don't need a widespread coordinated network to wreak political violence, you just need a crowded room and access to a gun.

I don't entirely disagree but I'll point out two things:
  • The sort of top-down organization that you're talking about isn't strictly necessary and it's especially not necessary at this stage.
  • The right-wingers we have in America talk an awful lot of poo poo but they are cowards, even by right-wing standards historically.

Next time a brilliant NPC cosplayer shows up to a lefty protest, be sure to tell him to stick around til the end of the event for his Soros check. You don't even have to do anything after that, the idiot's incoming disappointment will be enough.

I have heard a lot of talk of splitting the threads again, but we just need to run this like The City and the City. USPOL regulars put all the Trump regulars on ignore and vice versa. We'll have two threads, two thread cultures, in the same place and I will be the poo poo poster that disappears by blending into both.
