Why does it seem like most of the heavy handed police repression and operations in USA that use lethality have been against anarchists? like im talking mass raids in operations, mass arrest sweeps, targeted killings, why did they stop doing that with the more marxist groups like they did in the 80s back and suddenly just seem hyper focused on anarchist. like the cointrlpero of the usa government against them now seems way more harsh than on other lefty groups. anarchists back then basically got to fuck around in communes and get surveilled but not actively destroyed. now fast forward and it's like the opposite. after 9/11 you start seeing way more entrapment cases against anarchists than actual marxist groups, the green scare after was straight up hunting anarchists with cases facing decades, murders by cops, multi-jurisdiction tactical raids on the same day across multiple states, RICOS, and now trump signs a bill naming "anarchist jurisdictions" specifically as the highest lvls of "terror" but the dems been doing the same shit just quieter with biden's and obamas doj still prosecuting 2020 protestors n anarchist being killed by police under biden. meanwhile ml groups mostly just host panels at universities and don't get their doors kicked in at all, they dont have cops visibly come to show force to intimidate them at meetings even but they do all this for anarchist. like why did the state stop caring about leninists who actually wanna seize state power and start obsessing over black blocs who just wanna smash windows. what changed
It's not that deep maoists and anarchists have more violent tendencies so they get targeted with higher levels. even the Marxist Leninists that got repressed back in the day in USA it was nothing, like the cpusa wasn't getting murdered but the maoist panthers were. anarchists and maoists are a potential terror threeat, its ingrained into their ideas but the feds know this is not ingrained into the ideas of all communists.
>>2742803>meanwhile ml groups mostly just host panels at universities I mean that's why.
>like why did the state stop caring about leninists who actually wanna seize state power Have you considered this is more of a Lacanian desire thing than it is based in any empirical facts. That is, those university panels where they imagine themselves as laying the groundwork to seize state power is essentially a justification and explanation of subjective lack (Freudian/Lacanian castration), or put simply it's what they desire to believe rather than anything to do with fact, so yeah, ideologically interpellated the MLs will not do anything and won't change in the face of facts either because they want to preserve what they desire to be true *sniff*
Because they are the closest thing the us has to leftists
Still doesnt prove them right though
