Even police officers would benefit from the abolition of police. The chief physical threat to police officers in Los Angeles yesterday was posed by other officers, who persistently tear-gassed them and shot "less lethal" munitions at them. The police state is bad for everyone. crimethinc.com/cops

Five years ago, we posted this: > In the end, the praetorian guard got to determine who ruled the Roman Empire. > > Likewise, in a social order maintained by violent force, the police want to call the shots in courts and government. Look who employs that security guard who killed two politicians.

The military occupations around the country and the parade in DC represent the culmination of a long-term shift from persuasion to coercion as disparities in wealth and power intensify. Autocracy requires mercenaries—despicable scum who sell their capacity to inflict violence to the highest bidder.

In headlines like this, it is clear for all to see that "outside agitators" is simply the term politicians use for "people the police intend to attack." They always harp on their tired rhetoric about "outside agitators" because the thing they fear most is—solidarity. crimethinc.com/texts/agitat...

About "nonviolence"— The definition of "violence" is not neutral. What counts as violence is determined by those who control public discourse. This is why police can terrorize people without it registering as violence, while the slightest act of community defense is framed as "violence." 🧵⬇️

Democrats must understand that they are no longer in a civil dialogue. The Trump administration aims to deal with all opposition by brute force. That’s what all the guns are for—what the police and drones are for—what the FBI and ICE are for. We need to act accordingly. crimethinc.com/notadialogue

While the Trump administration is opening up new battle fronts around the country, we should not lose heart. Some of the fights they picked only three months ago are already going badly for them. They can be beaten. It's a good time to open up new fronts of our own. crimethinc.com/MahmoudKhalil

One reason we argue against vertical leadership in favor of redundancy, horizontality, and decentralization is that our oppressors would love to be able to paralyze us simply by knocking out a few leaders. All of us must be capable of initiating and directing resistance. crimethinc.com/tce#leaders

As we've seen in Los Angeles, any pretense of noncooperation between the police and the federal mercenaries who are terrorizing our communities dissolves as soon as we stand up for each other. They comprise a single apparatus of repression. Police not welcome. store.crimethinc.com/collections/...

ICE raids continue in Los Angeles, now with the backing of the military. Donald Trump's strategy is to channel the rage generated by the failures of capitalism into spectacular violence against the most vulnerable, addicting his followers to vicarious brutality. crimethinc.com/sacrificialv...

Democrats are worried that Donald Trump is intentionally provoking unrest in "blue states" in order to discredit rival politicians. If that is the sort of thing you are concerned about, then you are in luck, because fortunately, there is a very simple solution. Spread the unrest to red states.
