I think that lady is saying you can't just approach big loving crime networks that are actually doing poo poo like this directly like this because they are broad, decentralized and very rich.

You have to look at what can be effectively done, not just pipe dreams. Like even if you get hard proof, these people are so powerful they can buy government officials and rewrite laws to protect their activities.

And I think it's pretty loving clear to see what needs to be done about pedophiles AND billionaires but they effectively own the surveillance apparatus of the world, so it will take some serious direct action by organized groups of hardcore dudes with beards and Oakley's than internet posters stringing yarn around cork boards.

maybe the democratic primary is controlled, but the last 6 months has pretty firmly demonstrated that there's no firm center controlling US policy internally or externally.

Only if you're not a completely amoral psychopath, but that's my point. From the point of view of any state or non-state actors with genuine power and any shot of changing the balance of power, it's half flex, half veiled threat. I read it primarily aimed at the EU/UK.

The idea that a decentralized opposition movement can topple a state and usher in a future of more freedom and less corruption is literal State Department propaganda.

Gene Sharp gets identified as a leading figure of non-violent thought, but I think a lot of the ideas about decentralized resistance also rely upon his writings too. The man was literally paid to write his political works by the US State Department, and it's been deployed overseas to destroy governments that oppose the US. A lot of these groups get identified as "non-violent" in the US, but in reality there often is violent and even armed element. Like, Sharp gets brought up as an inspiration for stuff like the Euromaidan protests in Ukraine, the Arab Spring, and reactionary protests in Venezuela, and all of those contained both peaceful protest and armed struggle against the state. The reason these movements get pitched as "leaderless" is because the real funders and decision makers in DC, Brussels, and the Gulf states don't want to be identified. When these "revolutions" succeed, its almost always the working class that loses the most.

This first article really gets into how Sharp was funded by the US government and how his theories were utilized around the world in the service of the US empire.
https://nonsite.org/article/change-agent-gene-sharps-neoliberal-nonviolence-part-one

This second one get's more into critiquing the idea of non-violence, so isn't as directly applicable. The first few paragraphs summarize the previous article though so if don't want to read it all just check out the beginning of this.

Do you know why we are unsuccessful in asymmetrical and guerrilla warfare in CENTCOM theatre of operations? I’ll tell you. It’s not the inefficiency of our combatant commanders, planning, readiness or training of troops. Much like the Vietnam war, ACM, AAF, foreign fighters, Jihadist, and JAM have nothing to lose. They embrace death as it is a way of life. I simply don’t fear it. I am the walking exigent circumstance you created.

The Violence of action will be HIGH. I am the reason TAC alert was established. I will bring unconventional and asymmetrical warfare to those in LAPD uniform whether on or off duty. ISR is my strength and your weakness. You will now live the life of the prey. Your RD’s and homes away from work will be my AO and battle space. I will utilize every tool within INT collections that I learned from NMITC in Dam Neck. You have misjudged a sleeping giant. There is no conventional threat assessment for me. JAM, New Ba’ath party, 1920 rev BGE, ACM, AAF, AQAP, AQIM and AQIZ have nothing on me. Do not deploy airships or gunships. SA-7 Manpads will be waiting. As you know I also own Barrett .50′s so your APC are defunct and futile.

these actually describe a series of events fairly similar to the current Cool Zone. large protests, state asserts outside agitators, sends in heavy duty forces w riot equipment.

there's no reports of open fire into the crowd, but there's several reports of people getting killed by military vehicles. all labeled "unconfirmed" though.

there's no relevant cables from after the day the military got sent in. I guess they weren't all in the leaks?

Max Abram's recent book Rules for Rebels, which is a quantitative study of rebel movements across history, basically came to the conclusion that violence against civilians is hugely detrimental to rebel movements' "success" (defined as, getting concessions from or overthrowing the regime.) But violence against regime targets isn't harmful, as long as rebel movements can make it clear that's what they're doing. (iirc, I haven't read the book in a while.)

that level of narrative control is impossible for a lone wolf

It's pretty much this. I can't find it but IIRC there's some wonk's analysis out there about how terrorism works* (but usually fails disastrously) and when it works it's only when they're *1. armed wings of an organized political movement and *2. Highly disciplined - restraint achieves goals more effectively than going for the highest body count or causing the most disruption. Lone wolf poo poo is absolutely a useless & often counterproductive fizzer when it comes to terrorism in pursuit of a goal.

whoah, I just meant that he's a neckbeard and his appearance got him so owned by public opinion after, i think, the aoc netflix doc, that he had to have a makeover. A goon

e: about AOC herself, it's tough to know much outside of the money links posted earlier in the thread. I always thought there was a pretty open casting call, audition, and grooming process by the justice democrats that selected her, but I don't think that has to mean much and is probably pretty standard for any smaller movement looking for new candidates.

back in my goony single years my housemates got me a makeover of sorts, something like that should be mandatory every 5 years for people of all genders, colors, creeds and relationship status, or at least do it every time your driver's license needs a new photo.
