ACAB in Minnesota

By Comrade Pete

Today, the Department of Homeland Security, in conjunction with the President of the United States and his cabinet, told the American people not to believe their eyes. This is not the first time

this has happened, and if we don’t take serious action, it won’t be the last. Four blocks from where a widowed mother of three was murdered in cold blood, a man named George Floyd had the life choked out of him by the knee of a known white supremacist. When that happened, just a little over five years ago, the city of Minneapolis, and cities all over the country, erupted in the streets to protest and express their rage. During this time, the Democrats in power spent days apologizing for the actions of their storm troopers, but they followed that up with months of pushing a narrative of needing more money and training for all forms of law enforcement in the US, not the abolition of the institution as it exists today. The righteously indignant liberals quietly went back to work, spread ice cream memes, and pretended that everything was going to be okay. It wasn’t.

The American people only show their anger when there’s undeniable murder in play, and are all too willing to go back to “normal” whenever they are told that they’ve been given enough time to rage, mourn, protest, what have you. Then, law enforcement thanks these liberals for not destroying property and listening to their orders. This, if you ever needed one, is a clear sign that your protest did not have any real effect on anything or anyone. So, what is to be done? Start by reading that exact work, by Vladimir Lenin. Follow that up with Ho Chi Minh, Mao, George Jackson, Huey P. Newton, and other revolutionaries that really went out there and tried to make the change they wanted to see.

We have to wake up and realize that there is no “back to normal” for a vast majority of people in this country. Whether you’re poor and living on the streets, of a color that attracts police brutality, are a woman that attracts the worst kind of violence, or a single mother of three, there’s a good chance your world is fucked and isn’t likely to get unfucked any time soon by going “back to normal”. It is beyond time for change. What change you ask? I’m glad you did. Let’s talk in broad strokes.

First, remove all elected officials and anyone connected to the current government in power. Remove high ranking officials of all stripes and hold them accountable for the many crimes they’ve likely committed. This will be done in tandem with the abolition of the police, military and all other tools of oppression that were once controlled by the now toppled government. Take back all privately owned land and business and return it to the people, see Mao for my personal favourite methods.

Before we can do this, however, we have to organize. We have to come to terms with the fact that everything from our jobs to our institutions are a complete scam being run by an elite that only wants your surplus labor value and that of your future generations of offspring. Organize at work and show the capitalists you’re awake. Take those organizations and start forming militias of well educated and well trained people ready to take the power back. Then, follow the previous paragraph, using guidance from Che Guevara, George Jackson, and other revolutionaries who have been in the shit.

Stop going back to work, pretending like things will be okay. They won’t, not if we don’t do something.
