I've stayed up all night three nights in a row tracking the riots to see if they come my way or not. I watched the destruction happen. What follows is no lie.

This is not protesting. This is insurgency. Taken from the chans:
Insurgency is the organized use of subversion and violence to seize, nullify or challenge political control of a region. As such, it is primarily a political struggle, in which both sides use armed force to create space for their political, economic and influence activities to be effective. Insurgency is not always conducted by a single group with a centralized, military-style command structure, but may involve a complex matrix of different actors with various aims, loosely connected in dynamic and non-hierarchical networks. To be successful, insurgencies require charismatic leadership, supporters, recruits, supplies, safe havens and funding (often from illicit activities). They only need the active support of a few enabling individuals, but the passive acquiescence of a large proportion of the contested population will give a higher probability of success. This is best achieved when the political cause of the insurgency has strong appeal, manipulating religious, tribal or local identity to exploit common societal grievances or needs. Insurgents seek to gain control of populations through a combination of persuasion, subversion and coercion while using guerrilla tactics to offset the strengths of government security forces. Their intent is usually to protract the struggle, exhaust the government and win sufficient popular support to force capitulation or political accommodation. Consequently, insurgencies evolve through a series of stages, though the progression and outcome will be different in almost every case.
Insurgency is seditious and treasonous. That alone makes it Federal, but that is not necessary. As the God-Emperor points out, organizing these terror operations requires inter-state travel of operatives and inter-state commercial activity of finance and capital using the postal system. That's three crystal-clear trigger clauses for Federal intervention and as the entire country remains under a State of Emergency the G-E has broad powers to unilaterally act. Given the G-E's mindset, he's gearing up quietly while letting the state and local authorities expose their incompetence and political treachery before making his move.
And this narrative shift out of Minnesota this morning, when Governor Walz claimed this was Muh White Supremasists--y'know, the cohort of morons that can't stop doxing themselves on Discord--shows that the meme went out while he was doing the Mea Culpa Move of admitting he's an incompetent, impotent cuck (along with Minneapolis mayor and Russian Small Hat Virginian carpetbagging faggot Jacob Frey) unfit for command and wholly deserving of the scorn and derision he's getting. Now it's all over the Fake News, and with that shift everyone I know around here has bought into it because otherwise the CogDis would be too much to bear.
And this is despite the riots taking out a well-loved institution of local science fiction fandom: Uncle Hugo's.

What's certain is that this op glows in the dark. Already caught staging shit.

And this narrative shift is more of the same. The governor of Minnesota did his shift live on the air. Everyone else with Cognitive Dissonance to resolve went with it, along with officials trying to cover their asses. With these developments we'll see tonight if my takes last night on the focus of Minneapolis terror ops on target-rich areas full of very soft and politically-acceptable targets around police precinct buildings (to provide narrative cover) hold or not. The 3rd and 5th precincts are full of soft acceptable targets. 1st is downtown, so the targets are hard. 2nd and 4th lack or are void of them, so terror ops have to go elsewhere to operate.
The protests are going on, but that's daytime ops for MSM-friendly optics and narrative reinforcement--the carrot--and the nighttime terror ops are punishment (the stick), all to force government to comply with political demands. It's literal extortion, a violent take on SJW point-and-shirek swarm attacks to do the Cancel Culture thing, because it's the same scheme to the same end with a scaled-up take and different means. If they intend to use this narrative shift to justify a tactical shift away from precints to terror ops on soft targets, we'll know after sundown.
And if this then shifts into ranging into residences and the suburbs, that will be a serious escalation. In any event, this is also a show of desperation; you don't execute like this unless you're on the backfoot. Cold comfort, but comfort nonetheless.
Theory: The narrative to date surround "Justice for Floyd", so the frame has to be anti-cop in focus. This is why they target police precints. In fact the terror ops are meant to do massive economic damage, which is why they always turn to looting and burning soft targets within a short radius of the precinct. It makes the local government look weak and amenable authorities within it can use it to wield state power on the terrorists' behalf to advance the agenda; it's the scaled-up form of SJW Cancel Culture ops and it works.
ReplyDeleteMinneapolis has five precints. 1st is downtown; downtown is a hard target. 2nd and 4th are northside and lack acceptable soft targets; 2nd has few, 4th has none. That leaves the known targets, so I say ops will be confined to the southside UNLESS A NARRATIVE SHIFT HAPPENS.
It has. Now it's "White Supremacists".
Which live in the suburbs, Because Reasons. And the rich neighborhoods (which are far easier to reach), in both Minneapolis and St. Paul, as well as the college campuses- and there are a LOT of them here, all of which are VERY soft targets.
If this narrative shift allows the Hard Lefties running these terror ops to perform a targetting shift, then we'll see a tactical shift as the mob moves out of hitting precincts and the surrounding blocks to soft targets elsewhere in the Twin Cities area- including the suburbs.
And with news of a massive mobilization from across the state, using that tactical shift to start a massive Cat-and-Mouse game, where they rely on speed to hit and run faster than government forces can counter, then we're in for some serious shit (and I could be in danger).
We'll see after sundown tonight.
