Hedge Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 Bravo! Looks like this was a private citizen sting operation. The DSA Orange County account is "Democratic Socialists of America of Orange County". Twitter, of course, suspended the OCAntifa account. 5 1 1 5
Nelius Posted June 1, 2020 Posted June 1, 2020 (edited) So, uh, no way in hell we're having a season now, right? Regardless of your politics this is all incredibly serious. Denver's like guerilla warfare right now - cops and protesters just going at in alley ways all night, for three nights in a row. Businesses are boarded up. Been on curfew all weekend which I anticipate will be stretched throughout the week considering tear gas is still going off. Minneapolis is dead. 20% of us don't have a job anyway and rent's due tomorrow. 2020 sucks. Edited June 1, 2020 by Nelius

It’s the logistics that’s the giveaway — the organizing, travel, and “material support” given in such a short time frame is not something that happens organically or through grassroots activism. It’s too sophisticated. It's really not, man. I know the conspiracy theory is easy, but if you've been following antifa/BLM/etc. for the last decade, you'd know that the network is huge, and that it's all largely just a nebulous definition for left-wing protesters in general. The very boring common denominator here is that most of the people out there are young, and they're either mad, or bored, or dumb, or yes influenced, or some combination of. There are protests/riots currently in Petal, Mississippi, Fayettevile, NC, and Santa Rosa, CA. Relatively small towns, in addition to every major city where this is going off. This is not being funded by some all-seeing, all-powerful group (if it is, we're in trouble). This is unfortunately very organic. Edited June 1, 2020 by Nelius

That sucks to hear man, and is surprising. I feel like this would be worse in a rural town since the police ratio would be way off, and any available resources would likely be assisting the nearby largest city. But to the theme of the thread for the last few pages, is that also being funded and organized by some main organization? I say it's impossible. I can't fully articulate the reasoning for why everybody's joining in, but I think it's some combination of genuine anger, and the fact that instagram influencers are an actual thing in our society right now. And probably a good dose of what Big Blitz posted a couple posts back. Edited June 1, 2020 by Nelius 1

For their own sake, the "protesters" probably should tread lightly outside of their turf.

Attacking armed red staters is a whole other ballgame. 1

Don’t want to offend their base by denouncing the “ protests”. Cuomo made sure to lecture NYers about their racism yesterday. POS 1

That’s all they care about. They couldn’t care less how many people’s businesses and/or lives are ruined. Disgusting 3

Great question. Historically, I wonder how communists have handled the subject of gender equality. They are at their core amoral hypocrites. 1
