What’s unfolding in Minneapolis right now isn’t “protest.” It’s low-level insurgency infrastructure, built by people who’ve clearly studied the playbook.
Signal groups at 1,000-member cap per zone. Dedicated roles: mobile chasers, plate checkers logging vehicle data into shared databases, 24/7 dispatch nodes vectoring assets, SALUTE-style reporting (Size, Activity, Location, Unit, Time, Equipment) on suspected federal vehicles. Daily chat rotations and timed deletions to frustrate forensic recovery. Vetting processes for new joiners. Mutual aid from sympathetic locals (teachers providing cover, possible PD tip-offs on license plate lookups). Home-base coordination points. Rapid escalation from observation to physical obstruction—or worse.
to us about, or don't bother to find out before they start telling us what to think.
The BBC confirmed the authenticity of the video in their 10 p.m. GMT news broadcast. Reporter Ros Atkins said the man in the video “has the same coat, facial hair and gait as Alex Pretti and a facial recognition tool suggests a 97% match. We see him shouting abuse at the agents.” Separately, a spokesperson for the BBC confirmed to Mediaite that they reviewed the footage and verified its team did use facial recognition technology on the video.
Gee, it's like he's been another leftist agitator who's been working hard to make serous trouble for a while, and not just a pure angel in the wrong place...
and is being used to kick them in the ass. Hard.
People saw a perfect accidental parody of how the establishment treats ordinary dissent:
If you question orthodoxy, you’re not wrong — you’re dangerous.
If you wave a Union Jack, you’re not patriotic — you’re extreme.
If you ask questions, you need monitoring.
So people did what the internet always does when power looks stupid:
They laughed.
They memed.
They stripped the moral panic naked.
Now we’re told there’s a “highly coordinated hate network” behind it all.
Sure. Or maybe — stay with me —
people are done being lectured by institutions that despise them.
And, taking the lesson, there are people in other countries doing the same thing.
And Amelia isn’t limited to the British. Creators from other nations are already generating their own variants. Germany has “Maria, Brazil has Ana, France has Jeanne, and just today The Netherlands gained Emma. Different aesthetics, same function — a feminine symbol of national continuity in a culture that insists such continuity is either imaginary or dangerous.
and a lot of the screaming over- well, anything ICE does.
If you get a bunch of people to mess up legal operations, there will be troubles.
If you take this to the point of assaulting cops(and their 'de-arresting' advice involves exactly that), you're actually demanding people get hurt.
You blow whistles in people's faces and blow horns to complicate and cause more problems, multiply the previous.
You go to one of these armed, and it blows up in your face, you took part in causing the damned mess, and it's stupid to blame everyone else but yourself and your friends for any part in it.
The True Believers, which includes the idiots who bring kids to riots, especially in winter, won't care about anything, including the death of this guy, he's just a Martyr to the Cause and that's the only thing they care about. So is the fact that they're often working to protect rapists and child molesters and murderers from being deported; they don't actually give a damn about them as humans, but as fodder to Advance the Revolution, for that purpose they care. No matter how that looks to so many others in this country.
Throw in that they're actually counting on the cops, and the politicians in question, not being the bastards they keep calling them; the vast majority of the 'revolutionaries', if they actually believed Trump and the cops were the consciousless sorts they call them, would be hiding in their homes because they'd be scared to death of them cutting loose. And lots of other people realize that. Doesn't work well with normies, any more than blocking roads and such to keep people from work/friends/hospitals/schools makes them sympathetic. But the leftists don't care.
You make a point of giving support to Hamas and the Iranian regime and not giving a damn about all those they murder, that doesn't exactly make you look caring and all. Especially when some of you say things that make you seem approving of their murders and tortures.
This is a bloody mess, and it was created as such by idiots who want to use it for politics. And it won't ease off or - preferably- end until a bunch of the people in charge pay a real price.
Two things: "Oh, this is so important I need my kid to see it!"
combined with the standard leftist thing: "This isn't important, the IMPORTANT thing is the revolution!" And they're willing to put their kids at risk for it.
if this were a regular thing here(happily, it's not) or if I had to move someplace where it was, I'd have a snowblower. I can't do this shovel & sweep it the way I used to.
Hands especially. The shoulder was giving me some crap, but the hands, this is the first time of this since my arthritis got this bad, and they really hated it. In part because the weather before this was nice enough there was enough residual heat in the pavement that the snow in contact was melting a bit. Which meant whether I was using the broom to push some or the shovel to lift and move, it kept freezing on them and I'd have to shake/beat them off. That got old real fast.
So this morning everything that had some slight melting when the sun came out yesterday refroze, and it's like a skating rink out there on the streets. I'd go out for an emergency, but that's it. It's supposed to get to the low 20's today, and that and traffic will help.
Now the anti-gun idiots are saying that the 2A is irrelevant because gun owners won’t rise up and fight the very policies they voted for.
Americans who own the 400,000,000 guns in order to protect the rest of us from governmental tyranny, it’s your time to shine!!! https://t.co/0yCUA5D5y8
Hypothetical Liberal "Ally" Who Lives in the Suburbs Which Aren't On Fire - "Hey, gun owners! Here is some civil unrest! Why won't you come and help us?"
Snort. Fuck off.
"Pussies! Why not?"
Well, every single gun nut in America has spent their entire adult life being continually mocked, insulted, and belittled by the left. You've done nothing but paint us as the bad guys.
In Hollywood, we're always evil, stupid, violent, malicious, redneck, racist, murderers. That's so ingrained in the liberal religion that when "ally" Harvey Weinstein was trying to get out of being a sleazy rapist, his repentance consisted of promising to make more movies about how the NRA is bad.
In the news, everything is always our fault. If there is a mass murder, we can always count on the vultures to swoop in and blame America's gun culture. They flog it for weeks on end, 24/7 coverage, hoping for gun control. And if the identity of the shooter doesn't fit the narrative, it drops off the news in mere hours.
And then at the local, state, and federal level, legally speaking, the left fucks us at every opportunity. You ban everything you can get away with. You ban things that literally make no sense. You ban shit just out of spite.
When we fight back against gun control laws, you declare we are stupid because only the police should have guns (hey, aren't those the guys you are protesting right now?)
"Stupid racist rednecks! We live in a civilized society! Don't you realize the police will protect us?" until when your democrat cities are on fire, and you call 911 and the operator tells you sorry, the police can't come to your house right now, please try not to get murdered... How is that strict gun control working out for you?
Then you did everything in your power to chase gun owners out of your sainted liberal strongholds. You passed laws. You banned everything we like. Forced all the shooting ranges to close. Forced most of the gun stores to close. And just generally let us know that our kind is not welcome there.
But now you've started some shit, YOU want US to go into democrat cities, with democrat mayors, and democrat police chiefs enforcing democrat policies which cause strife among democrats, in order to get into gun fights on your behalf?
How fucking gullible do you think we are? Like holy shit. Damn dude!
Because we all know that literally 30 seconds after a gun nut blows away a government employee on your behalf, then all the national media coverage of the riots will instantly cease (sorta like the Corona Virus coverage did) and it'll be back to the news breathlessly reporting about right wing extremist gun nuts, and all you useless fucks would go back to whining for more dumb ass gun control.
You've already thrown the black community under the bus, cheering as their neighborhoods get burned and yours are safe. Seriously, white liberals are the shittiest "allies" in history, and your moral foundation has the consistency of Play-Doh. Your moral compass is a wind sock.
*When you're trying to burn buidings with people inside, sometimes blocking the doors first, you're trying to commit mass murder by arson, and you damn well are a rioter asking to be shot, not just arrested and turned loose by idiot prosecutors and other politicians.
