LINK Forget "Looting." Capitalism Is the Real Robbery.

"This morning [ 05/29/2020 ] the president of the United States threatened state-sanctioned murder in response to “looting,” laying bare the way in which white supremacy, capitalism and the state work together to violently repress people who defend Black life."


Question: Is it or isn't it okay if we give a pass to looters who do so to protest rampant killing of non-violent black citizens, and to protest the US financial system that mercilessly continues to cheat all of the marginalized in America?

Ever since it was disclosed that the most violent Vietnam protesters were in fact undercover law enforcement, I have looked at the violence with a lot of skepticism.

Yes, I feel it is wise to keep skeptical about what is reported or omitted by US media sources.

@MissKathleen You know that right..

I read your comment to my housemate, who laughed about everything you said here.

@AnonySchmoose as in she agreed or thought it was way off? Just curious..

@Charlene
.... As in he agreed with everything you said.
He's from Cuba, and was there during the Castro Revolution, also in favor of that, until everything got extremely violent, repressive, and punishment-oriented, because of secret police, gossipers, and tattletales. Before Castro (BC) and immediately after (AC i.e. after Castro took over) were both dehumanizing. Cuba has achieved a lot of good since that era, i.e. trained and shared some of the best doctors in the world for humanitarian efforts; protected its ecosystems, including the ocean; allowed afro-cuban musicians to tour the world and collaborate with American musicians; allowed artists to exhibit in other countries, including US.

@AnonySchmoose please give him a hug from me..

There are chaos agents of the alt right coming in from outside breaking windows, spraying graffiti and setting fires.

Alt-right rioters create chaos to spread hatred against Blacks and Browns by influencing the narrative. Chaos breeds distrust, which is exactly how they will pigeon-hole people of color, unfortunately.

Yes it is. Burn the banks.

Banks, definitely yes, I feel it's okay for marginalized to loot too.
