  • A police officer received head injuries from a fire extinguisher at the scene of the riot and died some time later. That's enough to show what type of people were there.

  • Not saying that they're not a bunch of violent fuckwits, but beating the crap out of people is not quite the same as actually using and throwing molotov cocktails and using the guns you have brought into the capitol on unarmed people and the police.
    The fervent bravery on social media without the fear of repercussion dissipates in the face of the national guard turning up with shotguns and full body armour. Or maybe even just some mace in the eyes.

    I'm not sure I understand - the things you mentioned actually galvanized BLM and Anti-Fascist forces last summer by validating what they've been saying about state oppression being used as a tool to uphold white supremacy.

    Increased state power will not do anything to fix the issue of white supremacy in America and any systems put into place today by the Biden administration will likely be used by whatever Fascist piece of shit takes office next to crush movements like BLM and Anti-Fascism.
