What’s his name? George Floyd!
What do we want? Justice! When do we want it? NOW!
Black Lives Matter!
“I woke up wanting to see the world burn down yesterday because I am TIRED of seeing black men die. He casually put his knee on a human beings neck for 9 minutes as he died, like a zebra in the clutch of a lion’s jaw and we watch it like murder porn over and over again. So that’s why buildings are burning to the ground they don’t know what else to do”

The Constitution says: “That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”

Many will say that these riots is anarchism
That is far from true
Anarchism is not lawless
It is rules without rulers
It is at this point
That I can say with full confidence
That the “united” states are neo-fascist & authoritarian
They are willing to sacrifice lives
While liberals only play a left-wing party on TV
And it all pleases the line
This is the world we live in
It all plays out
This is not anarchism
Rather it is the raw and purest form of Capitalism, The State, & Police
Capitalism
It demands blood sacrifice in order to survive
Both literally & metaphorically
And it will do anything to fulfill such a wish
“Here we see the essence of the state: it can kill, but it cannot give life. As the concentration of political legitimacy and coercive force, it can do harm, but it cannot establish the kind of positive freedom that individuals experience when they are grounded in mutually supportive communities.”

The State
Interconnected to all oppression
making us silent
Because once we speak out
We are its enemies forever
The police
Birthed from the American slave patrol
Then the Border Patrol and its brutality fetishizm
They do not have to protect you
But, rather protect and serve the ruling class
These riots expose the true nature of the power structures we are coerced to trust
As the saying goes: Kill the cop inside your head!
Fight back
Educate
Agitate
Love
& Organize
The Military is going deployed
We are citing a 2-century old law
This is what happens when the mask of ingrained hierarchical institutions finally falls off…
“No great idea in its beginning can ever be within the law. How can it be within the law? The law is stationary. The law is fixed. The law is a chariot wheel which binds us all regardless of conditions or place or time. ”
