We’ve just barely had time to hose down our street from that rank-assed “No Kings” shitfest before we get the news that these assholes are rolling into town on the 22nd of November — a quite apropos date for this shindig as I’ve often found myself wishing for a cheap Italian rifle and a school book depository lately.
This is from the same blast of inspiration which coughed up the “No Kings” flyer parody, and my disgust/amusement at the continuous parade of half-assed Democratic astroturf “Potemkin Revolutions” through my city, such as the latest partisan bitchfest headed our way next week.
Caitlin Johnstone published an excellent Substack piece recently about the flood of fake movements – mostly Democratic Party front groups – hitting us one after the other this year. It’s not just the shallow fakery that’s got me pondering, but how this strikes me as some kind of “domestic ‘color revolution'” blitz by the Democrats. Like US-backed “color revolutions” in Hong Kong or Ukraine, the DNC’s domestic version functions much the same way — divert and waste attention, time and energy and promote US capitalist interests.
It’s not enough for the DNC to suppress our voices in their media and their phony “democracy”; they have to add insult to injury by flooding the public protest space with these inane fake “movements” which cause no trouble, make no demands and constitute no threat to the State or to Capital – and so are ultimately useless.
