I mean hopefully it can be delayed by a year or two until I can get SRS and move to Seattle and integrate into some leftist networks. But we're all just stuck in this limbo of waiting for the evil empire to implode and it's still tottering along, smashing thousands of lives daily. I'm not romanticizing the Cool Zone, I'm just tired of being kept on the edge - waiting, waiting. Let's just get it the fuck over with

    My theory is capital will realize it is too risky to turn violence outwards and we are about to see a ratcheting of violence internally.

    I think we're already seeing the foreshocks of that. The militarized internal police were designed to keep ethnic minorities down, and that original mission has been expanding for awhile. To be honest, a huge part of the drive to get everyone back to work during 2020 was a terror of the George Floyd summer. Everyone was fired or furloughed or otherwise out of work, so a ton of people were protesting and shit did get violent. The resultant desperation to get everyone back into their jobs has an obvious motive there. If that didn't work, you can bet the state violence in response would be increased severely.
