Another Antifa Call for Violence

The fact that they're anarcho-communists suggests that a large degree of centralised organisation is not the likeliest of options.
Years ago I watched a documentary about the Findhorn commune. All their decisions were supposed to be communal. It was full of hippie types who didn't want to impose their decisions on others or take responsibility, and would talk and talk without deciding anything. At the end of the day everything ended up being decided in practice by this one decisive woman. She never presented what she was doing in this way, so everybody got to pretend/not realize that she was really their boss.

Just because Antifa claim to be/believe themselves to be/mostly are anarcho-communists doesn't mean that in practice a relatively small number of people aren't making the important decisions. Who knows? Not us. Presumably the FBI have a pretty good idea.
 
They aren't generally intended to be long range ballistic projectiles.

True, they are intended for construction. They are useless as projectiles and unnecessary as window-breaking materials. Which is probably why the pictures of them we've seen so far have always been next to construction sites (an unpaved part of the sidewalk and a building reconstructions site for the two pictures I've seen so far).
 
The latest fake antifa account was an obvious fraud to anyone with even a cursory knowledge of the activist left in this country, but that's not really relevant. These false flag operations exist so that dimwits and bad-faith propagandists in the media can spread a false narrative.

That is correct. The fake antifa account wasn't intended to fool "actual" supposed antifa people into doing anything; it was intended to be pointed at by those opposed to the BLM protests to say "look what antifa just said, look what they're going to do now".
 
But if you don't have anything on you and there's one nearby, you can certainly use it.

And you don't need a gun to kill someone. But if that's your goal, they're useful tools for each.

Breaking windows is trivial, there's always something around to do it with. A chair, a dustbin, some rocks or sticks lying around, someone who brought a hammer or some other objects, ... Of all the windows that have been broken during these events, I'm sure you'd be hard pressed to find one that was broken with a brick.

This is definitely true. In some cases, lefty jokes in the style of "Conservatives would actually believe something this stupid," inadvertently wind up actually tricking conservatives into believing it. The modern American right is beyond parody.

Is there a central committee that funds and organizes all neighborhood watches globally?
You really seem to have no idea what Antifa is.
 
It is a common bourgeois error to assume that only intact bricks may be used as missiles. The half-brick is much to be preferred.

The only difficulty lies in obtaining a sufficient quantity of half-bricks at the correct time (immediately before the planned civic action) and without the need to transport and, critically, to distribute them to the civic actors. The solution is to create them on-site, and I cannot over-stress the necessity of training brick-breakers, preferably teams of three comrades, to carry out this task.

A stockpile of bricks (preferably loose, but pallets are acceptable) provides everything needed. Position two bricks on pavement or hard earth, parallel and a little less than a brick-length apart. Lay the brick to be broken across them, broad side uppermost. Strike the midpoint of this with the end of an intact brick; strike hard, as if at the thick skull of a boss or one of his goons. The target brick will break into approximately equal pieces which can be thrown as far as as a police grenade. When a few arm- or pack-loads of missiles have been accumulated, two workers can begin running them to the front line while a single breaker produces more. Team members should alternate tasks, to avoid fatigue and to hinder identification by establishment spies.

Practice these simple and effective tactics, comrades! Shatter their bricks tonight, and tomorrow we shall shatter their state!

In a later post, I will discuss slings, staff-slings, and, time permitting, trebuchets. Solidarity.

If they can back-trace Covid, they can back trace violent demonstrators. Find the first one to call his buddies, and prosecute him, for ALL damages. Including murder if anybody died.

But he prepared to hear the Left howl if Trump does it.

Didn't somebody organise buses for the "peaceful demonstrators" re: Michael Brown?

You know, those peaceful demonstrators that brought along gas masks, clubs, and spray cans to commit property damage? Those kind of peaceniks.

Globally probably not. Relatively few things are organized globally. Nationally, probably in some countries, and not in others. Internationally, sure, somewhat... there is a European Neighbourhood Watch organization for example. In the UK Neighbourhood Watch is funded by government and is absolutely centrally coordinated. This seems like a pointless train of thought. The domain it is helpful to coordinate over kind of depends on the domain over which you need coordinated action.

Upthread people are defining antifa as anybody who is against fascists and also as anarcho-communists. That sounds like an outer ring of hangers on, and an inner more committed core. Perhaps there are other people even closer to the centre. Unless we are close to the centre of it, we can't know to what extent the various groups calling themselves antifa are organized. How could we possibly know?

If Trump does what exactly?
Apparently nobody on the Right are upset about Donald Trump Jr. retweeting the white supremacists' tweet as proof that antifa is a terrorist organization.
This is absolutely despicable, and it doesn't bother you at all, does it?!

What we can know is that this tweet was sent by white supremacists, not by antifa.

Here is a video showing people breaking second-story windows with bricks, over and over and over. So, not hard-pressed in the least.


Your discussion makes almost as much sense as the discussions of calibers, types of ammo and other gun technicalities every time there's been a new school shooting.

I don't think anybody is claiming that this has been centrally organized, by what ever that group is behind that Tweet, publicly via Twitter. It has no relevance to what I was saying.
 
And what you are saying has no relevance to this thread, which is about white nationalists posing as antifas. At least, we do know who was behind that tweet.
