The video is alright, if somewhat haphazardly edited it actually resolves the question of what to put up on a landscape screen at an exhibit on this war.
The music choices are what actually give me PTSD skimming over this.
You just need to be in a constant process of contextualizing what you're seeing as something more than a demonstration of power by le coalition of the willing. Never stopping and asking yourself if "this is all there is" in this world. For some people, pointing out the hypocrisy and historical parallels allows them to deal with this material. There are probably thousands better than my version of that.
We should all be holocaust historians for this event. You know, we are going to have to compete with the Zionists and Banderites for the rest of our lives. It will be fun if we make it right every time we get the chance. Like reminding white South Africans about Angola and instantly triggering a cutscene where they rant about Castro.
I apologize for being terse and negative before but I already have misgivings about most nonviolent protest tactics. To me, Occupy while a critical ideological juncture was also the farce-nephew event to Cold War civil disobedience tactics. There needs to be somewhere for the pressure to be felt, or the sacrifice (of people's time, energy, incarceration, and lives (if they are in a 3rd world country like Philippines or Argentina that gets more kicks to the head instead of the ass)) is just done as part of going through the motions. Meaning if you are not at a stage where there is somewhere for the pressure to be felt, do not sacrifice critical resources.
"Just throw shit and piss and itching powder and hmm spicy stuff on the cops." blurs the lines enough to be a gun-level escalation in part due to the confusion allowing misinformation about what the protestors are doing.
I would also want to rub peppers and itching powder all over someone telling me this a few years ago so please don't take what I am saying as Trojan horse liberalism sneaking in to turn everything into toothless crap.
This is like suggesting home alone style traps if you are going to get swatted. Not to be glib
Those irritants are deployed by gas and the police wear protection against them, for one. "Why has nobody thought of this wacky scheme" is always shit that will be met by disproportionate escalation as well, both violently and legally. These are cops we are talking about here. They are going to claim you sprayed sarin and fentanyl on them.
but specifically what of the idpol
lol this guy is here for one post and you still want to get him
Actually ActivityPub (Mastodon) is in the glossy advertising copy of the private intel firms and they talk specifically about how they catch federated or rarely frequented/obscure platforms. If I were on my other account I would be on PC and would have the photo to show you. This community exists specifically because of the CIA banhammer being thrown at certain Reddit communities. Don't get confused.
It's called intimidation. You are being intimidated. It's aggression.
This is exactly what I would expect out of a dialogue between protestors in the global south and westoids. Literal pranks. They're going to be clubbed, and you're talking about crickets and stink bombs tier solutions.
