Imagine living to 46 a life not unlike
yours full of joy struggle family love
hate greed and fulfillment. 46 years of
life 46 times 365 almost 17,000 days I
imagine waking up on day 17 thousand and
one and never seeing seventeen thousand
and two. Never seening your family again
your flame extinguished as if you were a
rabid dog, a knee on your neck pressing
down until you can't feel your arms your
legs your torso your heart. Imagine
waking up on a day like any other and
being put down by the very same men who
say they are there to protect you. Your
head swelling on the cold concrete while 
you can't move while you plead for mercy
only to be met by nothing but silence
for those who are doing this to you do
not see you as human in their eyes they
aren't killing a human they are putting
down the personification of what they
hate. You are not only killed you have
your very essence, your humanity taken
from you and you are devolved to a piece
of cold dead meat. When confronted by
such a destiny many of us of all skin
tones religions and ages took to the
streets in the coming days what started
of as a peaceful protest was soon met
with the full force of the American
police state unlike the anti lockdown
protests this was not going to be
tolerated by the system by the state and
most importantly by capital the nature
of the protests slowly evolved and soon
after comrades rushed to support the cause
fully unifying behind the rage the anger
and the utter rejection of double-faced
apologies offered by a system that
chokes you to death at one moment and
offers a fake bow at the other the whole
thing obviously quickly turned violent
while many
understood the justified anger people
felt and chose who supported it, others
retrieved into their sheltered privileged
outlook - that of calling for pacifism and
peace. Suddenly those who fully supported
the cause were disgusted by the
destruction of capital, of targets and
McDonald's alike they were frightened by
how the anger manifested - because no
matter how much they thought they
supported the active combining of
systemic racism they were not ready to
give up their fragile comfort for this
or any movement. These people my friends
, the ones who take the high road are in a
way not all that dissimilar to the
colleague of Mr. Floyd's murderer who
chose to be an onlooker in a very black
and white issue. No pun intended. This
video isn't about analyzing what is
currently going on though because I'm
definitely not an investigative
journalist so I cannot tackle it from
that perspective I'm neither a black
American and it would be incredibly dumb
and silly of me
to go on about a racial injustice
While I sit at an ocean away from you - there's
plenty of other content creators that
can tackle that but I would lie if I
said that the events which have unfolded
haven't been what has inspired me the
bravery of everyone in the American
streets and abroad both those
protesting peacefully but also those
with molotovs in hand have summoned so
much debate and analysis that I
believe staying silent on the topic
would be least to say immoral.
Most people you see criticizing popular
uprisings throughout the world usually
do it from the comfort of their own
couch they see the world in a, how do we
call it,
CINEMATIC manner. When you watch a film
the only context you can get is from
what is shown or implied on screen the
world of the film quite literally is
limited by its running time and what it
insinuates came before and after the
movie. Those among us who genuinely think
that there is such a thing as a passive
non violent existence see life in the
same exact way their experiences what
they see what they feel what they smell
touching live must be the only thing
that exists. Like a film.
therefore if their lives are not
directly threatened and if their
experiences aren't horrific enough they
quite literally cannot wrap their little
jebeni brain around what provokes
violence has the last solution in so
many of us. This might sound like a hell
of a convoluted way to describe
privilege but no my friend - while 
privilege certainly plays its part that
is not what the main point is here. These
people, arguably the majority, have taken
the pacifism pill by genuinely
believing that there is such a thing as
a non-violent state of affairs. That
violence can only be defined as one
person doing physical harm to another
like shooting or punching them. The
experience of violence is both a matter
of privilege but also circumstance. Their
scope does not allow them to fully grasp
the very bloody nature of capitalism
patriarchy and racism - which are all
directly intertwined by you know, keeping
themselves afloat on oceans of blood and
sweat every single day every single hour
every single minute from the factory
worker in in Indonesia to the child
diamond miner in the Congo from the
soldier in Kurdistan to the impoverished
black single mother in Chicago the
violence of the status quo presses it's
cold boot on the neck of the entirety of
the human experience. V*olence against
capitalism which is directed at capital
and the state is self-defense and not
only that but in contrast to the
suffering caused by the status quo every
day the anger displayed on the streets
of the US Paris Chile or Moscow is least
to say bloody merciful. If the working
class was to deal with the 1% the way
they deal with us we would make St*lin
look like a fucking Anarchist. There is no
such thing as genuine peace in
capitalism. I know I'm repeating myself
but this has to be hammered in every
person's head. When your whole system is
based around the idea of moralized
exploitation then how can you tell me
with a straight face that we are living
in a free world that history has ended
as mr. Fukuyama said. Seriously how jebeno dare you? how the fuk you little shit
do you look at a world built on the
bones of millions and look into the eyes
of the grandchildren of the North
Atlantic slave trade and have the actual
unironic audacity to say they should
just get over it. The question of whether
using violence to fight violence is an
unending cycle of life and death is a
circle-jerk petty intellectuals like to
engage in. But the working class
minorities LGBTQ and trans people don't
have the privilege to LARP these
ideological mannerisms. Liberation is not
achieved or granted it's not gifted or
earned. Liberation is taken. Throughout
history the working class had conceded
hundreds of times all over the world to
reformist offerings of capitalist
governments and leadership's their
silence was bought with different
trinkets like the welfare state wider
civil liberties and so on while these
were great successes in the short run
and while I do not want to undermined
them in any way they were at the end of
the day capitalism's approach to
postponing popular revolt you don't
starve your pigs you don't overfeed them
give them enough and they'll stay calm
until butcher day in the same way we've
been fed just enough given just enough
not to revolt but as history has proven
it - revolt and the pursuit of genuine
liberation cannot be
weld and reforms can only do so much
before the entirety of the system
reveals itself is what it is - a fraud
so when mainstream ideas of how we can
enact change when material stability and
monetary success is only achievable
through radical competition and the
abandonment of your community as you
strive to the top then violence my tovarischi 
is not only the only choice but
the preferred one in Minecraft of course
I don't want to LARP here like half of
Twitter and tell you how pretty much any
meaningful societal change is
inextricably linked to the public
expression of violence but what can't be
denied is one simple truth the powerful
only give when they fear they only step
back when they cannot step ahead it is a
duty not only to ourselves but to our
children who are far more likely to see
the world we want to live in than we are
to never question our resolve to never
give in to the liberal idea that passive
and active violence are not
interchangeable don't let them tell us
what civility is don't let them tell you
what is acceptable than what is not the
time for negotiation has passed a long
time ago we have tried it for
generations we have trusted for
generations but the working people can
and will not tolerate broken promises
anymore maybe it's not today and maybe
these protests won't do anything or
maybe they'll do in a week what
otherwise takes years I don't know when
neither do you but they have shown the
most oppressed people in the richest
country in the world that you can burn
down a police station that you can
create autonomous zones in the middle of
massive sprawling cities , that you can
push back in the most highly budgeted
violent police force with a bunch of
rocks and protest signs it has shown us
that they trulym really, will stop at
nothing to denigrate and silence the
voice of progress it has shown us that
our ideas aren't a
simple daydream but something would be
materially manifest in the world around
us BLM and all other groups currently
showing the middle finger to power have
reminded all of us outside of theory
that we that we are what makes this
fucking boat run so how do we react to
violence? We seize it
it is neither good or evil it is a tool
stop moralizing and theorizing around it
just look at it as a hammer and
understand that in order to build
something with it you unfortunately have
to tear down what's currently occupying
its space there are times for building
and there are times for breaking it's
pretty evident we live in the ladder
now I'm not going to sit here pretend
like I know what the right move is or
isn't these are very decentralized
movements with very broad sets of
demands and even if the most radical
demands are met they will unfortunately
still be inside of the spectrum of
capitalism I only hope that the reforms
which do come ahead end up helping some
people but I'm afraid there'll only be
smoke screens used to de-radicalize and quell current or future
protests. Still but we should take out of
this as the most important lesson is
that we have shown ourselves and power
that we cannot and will not be taken for
granted. The degeneracy of the Republican
and Democratic Party has peaked one is
ruled by a quasi fascistic autocratic
egomaniac and the other by an apolitical
professional politician virtue signaller
the Dems kneeling while wearing African
scarves is the perfect metaphor
depicting the impotent nature of non
democratically ran societies. Most of
these people don't want to help or
instill genuine change because it would
hurt their place in what we like to call
class hierarchy but even if some of them
would like to stand up and maybe even
introduce a new pair of words you know
meaningful change  they would immediately risk being
defunded by every single special
interest group paying for their next
re-election. Mainstream politics is over
the US will last for a while longer but
in the wider geopolitical sense its
position as the only world power is
coming to an end with the incoming
economic crisis political diffusion and
gradual radicalization of the working
and oppressed peoples of the world
the only thing that can stop us in the
coming decades is ourselves. We must not
fall for the liberal illusion that
fighting back against fascism whatever
way you can makes you the same as the
fascists use every means you have from
the streets to using your own capital
because the alternative to socialism is
barbarism plain and simple. Read theory
organize and support and don't worry
tovarischi in the end they will either
surrender or sell us the very Rope we
hang them with
