If the riots and Chaz/Chop bullshit was anything to go by it was a little sample of what 'the revolution' would be like. "Even X the bullet!" just like the Bolsheviks and the Red Guard did to everyone else. Over the course of last year I could believe that all the chaos and destruction was allowed to happen, and that did make it frightening to go out anywhere once restrictions started being lifted.especially once they realized that the riots made everyone fair game and that they would be eaten by the very machine they once somewhat supported.
The thing I'll remember the most was how the Feds just stood in a skirmish line for weeks on end outside the Portland Federal Courthouse. They just started taking the fences down today. I wondered why they let that go on for so long, but they probably allowed it. After the response to Jan 6 the Feds suddenly pulled out all the facial recognition and phone tracking and APBs to round up whoever the fuck was in the building or area.
I think it was just about Feds using the tech and tools to defend themselves. Fuck the law abiding citizenry. Maybe they just want everyone to live in fear.
