We're aligned against the rich, the police, the military, the judges, Congress, the president, the (most influential American) priests, and the press. And every major social media platform. And the government is currently shut down.

And they need you to "be violent" so they can justify what comes next? If that's what they need, the violence will occur by hook or crook. Disasters are frequent, and none are being wasted.

It's past time for a prolonged general strike. Short of that, the only hope for a return to norms is a military coup, and even that is only a fool's hope.
