This is un fuking precedented. It got very little media. The movement is growing and they're trying not to amplify it.

    It got a lot of coverage on Fox News to make false equivalence as a “left wing insurrection”

      Fuck, so they just figured they'd try to sterilize some antifas before their guy left office?

        So you think you got the right to protest against kids in cages? Separated from their parents?

        We're just gonna douse the entire block in tear gas, which is banned during wartime. Deal.

          We don't actually know if it was teargas on In the fog machines. Knowing their eugenecist proclivities, it very well could be actual pesticides.

            It's probably HC gas. https://theintercept.com/2020/10/10/portland-tear-gas-chemical-grenades-protests/

            That's what they used before, it's a vomiting agent and whoever authorized it deserves to die in a windowless cell.

              Any comrades in the Portland area should definitely be investing in proper-good quality gas masks, this is seriously nasty stuff.

            Doen't seem likely that they'd use pesticides in that protest scenario tbh, to put it politely.

              I saw an AMA with an arms contractor who talked about turning on radioactive shit when anarchists showed up to sabotage, so it's always on my mind as a possibility, y'know?

    This is amazing. I hope all the comrades involved keep up the pressure, and keep on campaigning.
