Iirc the only person they killed was another roof Korean. They're just used for racist propaganda.
mhmmmmmm but who were they aiming at

um its pretty easy to entirely condemn them given the fact that at the most charitable, theyre willing to shoot people to protect property, even if their property means alot to them...... like lowkey mccloskey hours...but i dont want to derail this general thread for asian solidarity
This is true for basically anyone. Plenty of progressive forces have laid down their lives to protect property. You can make the distinction between personal & private property, native land & stolen land, etc. In this case we are talking about impoverished, nationally oppressed petite bourgeoisie protecting their livelihood.
Riots are the inevitable reaction to dispossession & exploitation under capitalism, and condemning rioters for moral failures is absolutely childish. However, neither rioters nor the petite bourgeoisie's reaction represents a progressive force. A riot is an unfortunate circumstance which leads various sectors of the lower classes to go to war against each other.
Blanket condemnation or support seems really out of place under these circumstances.
i think some of what youre saying is true but i feel as though we're constantly asked to nuance an issue when a black person is on the wrong end of the scope and that is what im responding to / i also think there were more options/ are more options available than holding a gun in fron of your property and pointing it at random black people// i also think the context as to what set off the riots in the first place also kinda factors into my opinion of the roof koreans // i am also considering that family of the people on the roof have since expressed regret and shame about the events and contextualized it within anti blackness. // im also responding to how "roof koreans" seems to be generally misunderstood and celebrated in a very unnuanced positive way thats been picked up by white supremacists but also by lay people
annnnd thats all ill be saying bc again, dont want to derail this thread and theres a time and a place for certain discussion
We basically agree on everything, so I don't want to keep this conversation going.
The problem is when nuance is provided to everyone but the most oppressed. Material reality is most sympathetic to them.
That's good. They share a common, powerful enemy.
Celebrating "rooftop Koreans" is reactionary nonsense

I'm pretty sure that their kill count that year includes that guy and an unarmed black teenager, whom a store owner shot in the back of the head as she was trying to leave the store after being accused of theft (totally not racism btw)
Real laudable group of people (petty bouge storeowners)
