i used to live a few blocks from that place and my dad called me today to say i bet that hits a bit close to home and i didnt have the heart to tell him that i was rooting for the shooters because anyone working in that building is complicit in the coordinated murder of thousands upon thousands of people whose only crime is being born in a country that is strategically relevant to the amurrcan sphere of influence

what these person/people did is not something to root for. the only thing they did is help justify the perpetual state of exception that much more. if it had come out that they had radicalized a bunch of other soldiers and performed a massive act of sabotage, or even if they had picked a high value target, ok, yes root. but so what if this coincides with the indigenous anti-troop position, that shouldnt make it "de facto" (that's latin) praiseworthy to the tribe.

i am just not sure what sort of revolution you see happening with massive amounts of military or police defection to the revolutionary cause. probably the really bad kind of revolution that has lots of warlords and violent repression.



why do you believe americans and especially soldiers are the target audience here? far more likely is the oppressed masses of the third world who don't even get the pleasure of seeing the american military man's face anymore as he blows them up from a drone or the people of syria who wait in silence as Obama hovers his hand on the button which will rain down bombs and faceless death on civilians.

that revolutionary defeatism or mutiny is impossible here shows that America is not revolutionary. also funny to think that all the posts we make are recorded somewhere by the NSA.

Your problem is that you think this is about doing something productive. It isn't. Its about revenge upon the guilty.

i still don't understand how some of you seem to think there's enough worth or dignity in the average american to justify fighting on their behalf, yes they're victims of things far beyond their control but they're self-defeating unthinking ghouls all the same and would kill for the chance to the be the ones inflicting the same torture on some other lower-runged non-entity. whether they ever had a chance to actually be a decent person is immaterial, we all know what they would have done with that chance



i sure know what I would have done with it

"There exists poor, sick, miserable people in this world treated like animals, left to rot in their own refuse and -- No! We should not help them, we should exterminate them."

this is literally the position of capital and capitalists fwiw. ironically, for all the criticisms of obama and the military, you all see eye to eye ideologically
