I don't know if the whole "political/progressive magic community" has a thread, but it really should for how deluded (and entertaining) these people are.
We have a
Witchblr thread over in the Tumblr subforum. Perhaps that's what you're looking for,
@Caustic Gelatin?
People often use diesel or kerosene in molotovs, and arson in general, or some type of combo with gas because they will burn longer and isn't as explosive as gasoline. Gas is more volatile and thus creates more explosive vapor. There are a lot of things you can add like motor oil to make it burn longer and stick better.
Just be sure to choose a target wisely as these Splatterpunks learned in RoboCop 3 when they unsuccessfully attempted to burn the Cyborg Cop with their own flammable liquid concoction.
If the Splatterpunks are Antifa, Robocop represents the Feds who are far more relentless in pursuing, arresting, and charging violent protestors with crimes than the local, Antifa-sympathetic constabulary is.
Sheboon in Rochester, NY is screaming about how cops make 100k year (only the brass), taking money from the police, giving it to drug addicts and joggers, raising pay for CNAs (glorified maids) and how property crimes and misdemeanors shouldn't be enforced.
TFW these protestors feel normies have distorted worldviews when theirs is just as distorted if not more-so. As others have stated, non-brass cops making $100k/year usually results from overtime that's the byproduct of working in cities where crime and lawlessness are the rule and not the exception.
The demand to let property crimes and misdemeanors go uncharged is the latest example of "rules for thee and not for me."
Ironically, the best CNAs I have dealt with were all men. Guys who maybe weren't the best with bedside manner, but did their job with a mechanical efficiency that ensured their charges were kept clean, well fed, and comfortable.
If these particular CNAs are unionized and members of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), I won't be surprised about the demand for higher pay. SEIU is the union behind the nationwide push for a $15/hour minimum wage and encouraging fast food workers to walk off the job for a day to join their $15/hour picket lines.
I once worked somewhere with CNAs represented by the SEIU. While there were those CNAs that enjoyed the work despite the relatively-low pay and demanding nature of the job, there were also those with the union mentality of doing as little as possible while still being able to collect a full paycheck. Consistent with
@Gehenna's post, there was a male aide there that had one of the more positive reputations of the group.
Given how attitudes have changed since I left that job, it wouldn't surprise me if the union mentality has become more prevalent. I'm not sure how much CNAs make now, but a $15/hour minimum wage could be a financial crunch on those nursing homes that were lucky to break even years ago given the minimal funding received from both federal and state sources that makes up the bulk of their receipts and budgets. As it stands now, smaller nursing homes that don't close down for financial reasons tend to be bought out or absorbed by either larger facilities or corporate chains that care less about individual workers than their predecessors.
Western countries have betrayed their own peoples by spending tax money on groups who will never stop seeing us as oppressors no matter how far we bend over backwards to please them. So fuck them.
Just before the first Democratic debates when there were 20 candidates for the presidency, NBC's Lester Holt asked them to raise their hands if they supported free health care for undocumented people (i.e. illegals). All of them raised their hands. It's difficult for independent-minded normies to support a party and its candidates when they want illegals to receive benefits that the citizens don't have and deserve more than people who willingly enter the country illegally and have zero desire to become legal residents/citizens.
As for deputizing state police, Oregon might be seen as a pilot test to see if it can be used elsewhere and as a way for the Trump administration to tell other areas with violent protestors being allowed to violate the law with impunity to either take care of their messes themselves or the Feds will come there next to take care of it with Federal enforcement. As much as social and mainstream media like to paint Trump as incompetent, he has his moments where there truly is method to his madness.
With this being a holiday weekend, I'm curious whether we'll see any spicy protests, or if the combination of a holiday weekend and Federal arrests continue to gradually demoralize enough people that more of them stay home or off the radar.
