“Effective immediately, disaster wide – cease inspections today and return to your hotels,” an alert from Vanguard Inspection Services read on Saturday. “FEMA received news that the Title 10 (active military unit deployed to NC) came across some trucks of militia units who said they were out hunting FEMA personnel.”

Vanguard was not immediately available for comment.

    I remember listening to a podcast about this. How right wing chuds are looking to take the place of fema when disaster strikes and already have. Can’t remember which podcast, maybe trillbillies

      The west, the imperial core in particular feels so doomed.

      It won’t be leftist groups that do mutual aid but a bunch of reactionary militia maniacs who between handing out aid to “the good ones” will murder and lynch a few POC and queer folk, and do some gender-violence on women and use their hero status to obfuscate their misdeeds and growing power.

      It seems too convenient too, like something the bourgeoisie or the nat-sec state planned as a way to prevent the rise of organic left mutual aid groups who would spread class awareness and threaten the existence of the US and capitalism itself. They can also use the existence of these to claim government is inefficient and they should just give money (and legal murder powers) to these groups instead because they do it better. And when a communist mutual aid org is found all murdered in an area where these people are operating it will be obvious what happened but uncle Sam wanted them dead anyways so you know they’ll probably just hand out more guns to them in return and they’ll become more popular with cops.
