very sincerely wondering why we don't just start capping judges and other officials who orchestrate and enable these farces, they have no security, it would be easy
everybody other than the president is easy to kill
Because we all know that taking out the bad judges and bad officers would change everything! It's not like this shit is built into the fabric of the United States
This is the correct take. I'm reminded of that Emma Goldman quote where she opposes assassinating a president because they would simply be replaced with an identical capitalist goon. Removing bad officials (by any means, including peacefully) means nothing without fundamentally changing who is allowed to take up that post.
The last time this happened that group that did proof of the deed got shut down hard and capitalists put an identical if even more cruel person in place to deal with the rising anarchist threat. The correct answer is to build enough power you can tip the scale so when through mass action those people dont have the standing to get back on their feet when power is finally seized.
Because random acts of terror are actively counterproductive and literally the single most effective tactic of police spies in leftist movements is encouraging groups to do violence (or encouraging groups to split over disagreements about whether to do violence or not), thus giving the feds a free casus belli
Because another ghoul would just replace them. For example, assassinating Hendrik Verwoerd was cool and good, but it did basically nothing to stop apartheid in the long run.

This take is fundamentally correct but underestimates the value of instilling fear into the hearts of these goblins

what exactly is that? please provide evidence when you go out and support assassinations
:bugs-no:
disturbing. no irony
I'm not so much wondering why we shouldn't as much as wondering how it hasn't happened more often already. The open spite is incredible.
I think the idea would be to intimidate cops and judges into being less bad, rather than to replace bad people with good people
btw I'm not endorsing anything in this discussion lol, %110 academic here
