Interesting analysis. Haven’t been paying granular attention; id have hoped that Portland’s climate would’ve been more amenable to some concerted action across communities.
People need to unironically read theory. Basically every significant communist from Lenin to Mao has spoken out against and written about the dangers of adventurism and going ahead of the community/society. Hell, just look at the history of fighting against apartheid. Did the assassination of Hendrik Verwoerd end apartheid in South Africa? No it did not. Apartheid continued for decades afterwards and Dimitri Tsafendas was tortured in prison.
Non-zero chance some fed provocateur seized on the pigmobile arson to try and manifest the “violent Nazi riots” the media has been hysterically screeching about. Real strong blacks rule energy from this “statement”
I’ve also had the displeasure of having to deal with these overwhelmingly white anarchist groups. They’re by and large useless, not to say that anarchists are useless, but these overly sectarian overwhelmingly white jokers completely are.
I assume communists have sagely recommended not firebombing fraternities.

The people who torch police cars, occupy a library, and then say “fuck communists” don’t have a coherent ideology? you don’t say

Anyone can claim responsibility for anything
this is all extremely on brand from anarchists in the PNW, no reason to fedjacket.
Eh, I’ve encountered real life anarchist groups with this rhetoric and tactics. It could just be weird insurrectionist types.

Sounds like these people are trying to get them arrested. If you lose the faith of the community you’re a sitting duck.
Certainly. These kids aren’t guerilla warriors and shouldn’t be expected to be.
PPB got called in first, then they moved into the library after the outdoor encampment got cleared, iirc.
Clearing the outdoor encampment was an unforced error, but the protestors in the library defacing books didn’t make them any friends.
Wow typical tankies 🙄
