To think the priests were assaulting and murdering those children to teach them stories like Sodom and Gomorrah and now they're being purged by flame with god's apparent approval.

:sicko-beaming:
Honestly a very small price to pay for all they put those kids through.
It's an interesting escalation. I'm curious to find out more details about it, specifically whether it's coordinated or 15~ separate lone wolves. If it points to a wider insurrection then it's more stating that there is a price rather than charging one. If it's only lone wolves, it will probably game out like arson during the BLM protests which radicalised the opposition without achieving anything concrete. I can only imagine how rabid Canadian chuds are right now and they can already torched both a totem pole recently and that fishery last year.
Edit: Don't name any names.
The chuds are absolutely frothing mad - at least online (hell, there are 800 comments right on this article if you want to take their temperature). Regardless of whether this is the coordinated action of some vanguard, or the spontaneous action of a bunch of lone wolves, I think these acts have a value. When the state is forced to answer for its atrocious policies of colonialism and genocide, it immediately begins making hollow gestures towards reconciliation. When the state does this, the only dignified response is to spit right in its eye.
Raising the temperature like this is undoubtedly a dangerous move. Burning a handful of churches and toppling a handful of statues gives the reactionaries an infinitesimal taste of the cultural erasure they've waged on colonized people for centuries. It is just a drop in the ocean, but they react to it with the acuteness of sharks to blood. This in turn undermines the state's false attempts at reconciliation. As the notion of simply paving over unspeakable injustice dwindles, people are forced to choose sides. Particularly, people who play institutional roles in the state, media, and public life.
It makes it very clear where individuals and organizations stand on the issue. People who normally would be able to slip by making vague gestures towards justice are forced to take sides either with the oppressed or the oppressors. Even for BLM, while the riots and arsons may not have abolished or defunded the police, they made it crystal clear where people stand on the issue, down from your shithead neighbors to the highest ranks of the "woke" Liberal elite. Don't underestimate the value of that clarification. It will prove very useful as the movement advances forward.
Edit:
Reading through these comments actually makes this patently clear. Many people are referring to this as "hate crimes," "pogroms," "(white) genocide," "terrorism," "persecution," "Kristallnacht," "book burning," etc. etc. I don't think even a single person has been killed, but they're prepared to compare this to the Holocaust.
Lol that edit stuff made me laugh. A fucking pogrom? :lmayo:
I know right? These fucking people. It's not like Amerikkka and Klanada waged pogroms for centuries. The real pogrom is the survivors reminding them about it. It would hilarious if these people weren't so terrifying.
That reminds me how during the BLM protests there was a poll that showed an overwhelming percent of Americans supported the burning of that one Minneapolis police precinct building.
It was after that poll was published that the majority of national coverage of the protests all but vanished.
Over 60% of the country was thinking, "This is a good start."
All I can really say here is, they've just started finding bodies and there's been tensions already. Either way this isn't even close to the end for sure.
Also the fishery thing ended kinda weird where the tribe bought out the company that was fucking with them.
I'm sure there have to be some copycats by now. There are bound to be more people who are angry about Canada's genocide, but who did not know how to express themselves until they started hearing about churches going up in flame
In the 19th century they called it "propaganda by the deed"
