    And I think things like swat would be substantially deterred by going after pigs at their dens in retaliation for every act of violence

    MOVE bombing?

    LA riots crushed in blood?

    Waco obliterated?

    Modern states don’t get deterred when you attack their symbols of power. They reply in kind with overwhelming force. SWAT isn’t scared of retaliation, they exist for this exact purpose.

    You are LARPing your own suicide.

      I don’t mean symbols and I don’t mean the whole state.

      Doing nothing is also larping my own suicide, and it should be noted that I have no friends+am bad at violence. Really just trying to make outcomes where I might not die palatable to others. Thanks for helping BTW.

        To be clear, just because I’m rough in my disagreement doesn’t mean I dislike you.

        I have friendly feelings towards most people who decide to engage in lefty communities (some exceptions apply).

        Even towards that other person who’s feeling overconfident about geopolitics and made my blood boil a little… in the end we’re all on the same side of the class war and I strongly believe in empathy, mutualism, togetherness. Whatever happens in the world, you have communities of people all around the world who would let you join them and consider you their friend without a second thought.

        We’re all tired of capitalism and violence.

        Peace.
