Occupy Related...don't let this happen to the occupy protests...know your protest buddies.

I heard this being discussed on Democracy Now this morning. Protesters identifying as Black Block, and wearing masks, are allowing for federal agents to dress in black and wear masks to provoke violence and discredit the occupy movement. The best way to be sure the occupy movement gains no traction, is to make it seem like it is violent and pro-anarchy...whatever the heel that means. Stop wearing masks folks...they already know who we are...do we know who they are?

Anyhow, then there was this today...Anarchists in Cleveland plot to blow a bridge...but have been under FBI control the whole time.


The problem with anonymous political or anti-political movements, is that the government can seize control of the group in a heart beat. These dudes were controled by an FBI agent the whole time. Derrrrrr

some people are just idiots

imagine if that shit wouldve went down.

i wonder their motivation for this particular spot...a bridge? odd.

militancy in occupy off shoot collectives strengthening this summer?

expect violent reactions to domestic occupy encampments. legislation.

chris hedges really put his foot in his mouth when he started talking that shit. there are undercovers everywhere, im more worried about people i trust snitching on our actions and getting people in trouble (which has happened a lot). it is the nature of an open movement, its wide open to infiltration, they dont need to wear masks.

here is a rebuttal to hedges, by david graeber... one of the original organizers of OWS and the dude who thought up the 99% meme.

it's "strategy" the "does it" for hedges as he said that he is not anarchist...

so i guess anarchists have no strategy...at least thats the way i took what he said on democracy now..

gotta love graeber...

obsession with transparency is just another way to throw those without privilege under the bus

ok

Not OCCUPY related but a similar story-

Misfits T-Shirt

Misfits news coverage is spot on...
"suspect 3 said he had asked his mommy if he could go out and kill tonight. To which she replied 'I ain't no god damned son of a bitch, you better think about it my little angel fuck.' The suspect commented further that he was frustrated with the Obama administration's policy on Brains for dinner, Brains for lunch, Brains for breakfast , Brains for brunch, Brains at every single meal. The suspect followed up his remarks with the question, 'why can't we have some guts?' It is believed that the suspect was further motivated by the fear that 'When new creatures rape your face, hybrids open up the door.' In hybrid moments, give him a moment. Reporting live from the dungeons of Danzig at the Horror Hotel, we are 138."

Cops are crafty. Why would you need to outsource molatov cocktails?

I was finna get angry but I am glad you understand that. It is a incredibly weak argument to say that violent/property damage tactics directly result in greater repression...a threatened power structure directly results in greater repression... any tactic that is actually effective or threatening is going to be met with greater repression. We should understand that and be prepared for them to hit back hard. Chris Hedges is a fuckin liberal tool.

As always, FUCK SNITCHES...they're fuckin everywhere...

Those who choose to not use violence and anonymity should at least support those who do...not fucking bash them...

Also ima take this as sarcasm...

No

That's the same backward-ass logic that people try to sell by saying it's okay to not support the wars (and every other one of America's foreign military excursions), but you still have to approach every soldier you see and tell them how much their actions make them heroes. Fuck that.

If I disagree with your choice, there is no reason for me to pretend to support it. It would be a lie. It's your choice, though. Just don't act like my personal integrity is less important than getting your ego stroked.

No, that is some liberal ass bougie bullshit...I think I like it here so until I know that this place won't kick me out just for expressing my views I don't wanna get into it. I AM NOT HERE TO SPAM!!! I've already been kicked off 2 message boards just for expressing anti civilization/green anarchist and non technological neutrality views... But seriously why not support those that use different tactics then your self???

On rereading your post I have come to the conclusion that you have totally missed my point... I was talking about tactics of resistance...we're fighting the same enemy just with different means, the totality needs to be resisted in ALL aspects... I am honestly completely unsure what you are talking about...I am NOT AT ALL talking about justifying the actions of soldiers... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWO4tVZPybQ Of course veterans have the highest suicide rates and very inadequate access to much needed services, so I 'm gonna support the veterans against the war.

What you said literally has NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING THAT I SAID though...

one of the first things that occupy denver did was to endorse the st. paul's principles... which called for a "diversity of tactics"
we have a very radical legal team which was basically trained and set up by our local ABC chapter (anarchist black cross), so if you were arrested for anything that your typical non violent* liberal doesn't feel comfortable with; occupy denver supports you... you get bailed out and NLG legal support... innocent until proven guilty...

if you really wanna talk about why non violent strategies will probably not work long term i suggest watching this video, i've used it to advance discussion alot with folks who are strict pacifists, usually to positive effect but almost always to greater respect and understanding of more radical elements.... .



i always use the argument that civil rights movement would not have adanced as well were it not for the militant black nationalist movement... a peace movement combined with a more radical offshoot to me seems the most likely chance of success...

people need time to let new ideas/paradigms sink in... the key to observing a "diversity of tactics" is to respect the time and space of everyone involved, so people who want to be involved in radical activity can and those who don't want to aren't put in arrestible situations under the cover of those who don't give a fuck. we always separate direct actions from marches, civil disobedience with rallies, etc.

after a few of these run in with the states you begin to applaud any form of resistance beyond just laying down and saying "arrest me."

* non violent as described as ANYTHING other than laying down and saying "arrest me im protesting"
