In light of recent events it might be worth your while to view the events in America's cities through a different lense. How you view poltical power and its use is very important and is part of how the events will be framed. Framing is a great way to control the narrative
Take the politcal heat or blame the black power and antifa riots on someone else and change the narrative back in your favor ?
The Democrati party political machine will control the narrative aided by their media partners so lets get back to the monopoly on power and political violence. The poltical left has it mastered.
The destruction of businesses we’re witnessing across the US is not mere opportunism by looters. It plays a critical role in antifa and BLM ideology. Their stated goal is to abolish capitalism. To do that, they have to make economic recovery impossible. Antifa sees a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to exploit an economically weakened America during the coronavirus pandemic. It’s Going Down, one of the most popular antifa blogs in North America, tweeted on Friday: ’10 years from now, people won’t look back and ask: “Why did it explode in 2020?” Massive unemployment while the rich rake in billions from tax-cuts + bailouts, the earth on the brink of collapse + police murdering people daily. Instead they’ll ask: “Why didn’t it happen sooner?”‘
There are many questions as to why the Democrat Mayors and Governor didn't push back on their poltical allies / members of their coalition. Questions why the members of the media didn't hold their poltical allies in power accountable. The State has a Monopoly on power so if you want to know who controls that you follow the Monopoly money.
Mark Bray hit the media circuit after the legacy media lionized AntiFa and berated Donald Trump for condemning violence on both sides after the predictable anarchy at the Charlottesville, VA 'rally' that ended with tragic consequences and produced a martyr. just like Maidan in Kiev Violence against the 'alt-right' and everyone they disagree with has long been the acceptable norm for the Democrats and the 'progressives'. Normalizing violence against Trump supporters was easily accomplished with the help of the legacy media. AntiFa is a collective of violent leftists using black bloc tactics to further their agenda by 'any means necessary'. AntiFa's "preemptive self-defense doctrine" means you the left gets to brutalize and terrorize people that disagree with them....
While Fox News reported on Bray's Meet the Pres comments, his appearance on CSPAN caught my attention and the "preemptive self-defense" phrase has stuck with me. Excerpt of the article and his appearance on CSPAN follows . ....
More than 100 Dartmouth College faculty members rushed to support a controversial fellow professor who repeatedly justified Antifa's violent tactics -- despite the Dartmouth president's condemnation of the professor's support for the so-called anti-fascist group.
Mark Bray, the author of "Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook" and visiting professor at the Gender Research Institute at Dartmouth, appeared in dozens of television interviews after the Antifa movement gained national traction following deadly clashes in Charlottesville, Va. earlier in August.
Bray supported Antifa's violence, dubbing it "self-defense" and a "legitimate response" to what he termed white supremacist and neo-Nazi violence "I think that a lot of people recognize that, when pushed, self-defense is a legitimate response to white supremacy and neo-Nazi violence," Bray said on NBC's "Meet the Press" on Aug. 20.
"The lesson of history is you need to take it with the utmost seriousness before it’s too late," Bray continued, adding that demonstrations are necessary to tell neo-Nazis and white supremacists "You can't make this normal."
A day after the controversial interview, Dartmouth President Philip Hanlon, troubled by Bray's support of the violent Antifa protests, condemned the professor's comments, Valley News reported.
"As an institution, we condemn anything but civil discourse in the exchange of opinions and ideas," Hanlon said on Aug. 21. "Dartmouth embraces free speech and open inquiry in all matters, and all on our campus enjoy the freedom to speak, write, listen and debate in pursuit of better learning and understanding; however, the endorsement of violence in any form is contrary to Dartmouth values."
Bray and more than 100 university faculty members took issue with Hanlon's condemnation and accused him of limiting free speech, Valley News reported.....
Excusing AntFa's violence was a specialty of the anti-Trump media ....
After being called out on their bias and hypocrisy, the media could no longer cover for their comrades in black ...
A few politicians as well as a few members of the pres have finally called out AntiFa for their premeditated violence, but how long until the Democrats, establishment Republicans and the media apologize for aiding and abetting AntiFa's reign of terror in their campaign to delegitimize the Trump presidency. Even today, Dartmouth backs their professors speech rights which are a call to terrorize their fellow Americans to SILENCE them .
The author of “Antifa: the Anti-Fascist Handbook” and Occupy supporter Mark Bray talks about Antifa’s role in protests today. He addresses attacking Americans under the guise of 'preemptive self-defense' and explains that AntiFa targets more than Nazis. In fact, AntiFa's willingness to attack the 'right wing' and silence them is celebrated by the left and their allies in the media. The legacy media that uses AntiFa in a campaign to paint Donald Trump and his supporters as white supremacists, even going as far as depicting AntiFa as peaceful protesters. The same protesters smirk when they say by 'any means necessary' while viciously assaulting and silencing those who they disagree with. First a definition of self defense ....
and the legacy media's coverage of their peaceful darlings AntiFa ....
Who could have possibly thrown that 'mud' Katie?
AntiFa violence is okay as long as they don't hurt their allies in the media ......
And now Mark Bray, Dartmouth professor rationalizes AntiFa and their preemptive use of force ..
Remember, black bloc is a tactic, globalism by any means necessary is the strategy.
Once upon a time during the Barack Obama administration there were some Ukrainian Svoboda Nazis that Hillary Clinton's State Department backed during the 2013 coup in Ukraine. They liked parade by torch light and chanting 'blood and soil'. In fact, their red and black flag means just that.
