Chud the Builder. Maybe you've heard of him. Here we have a man who has built his entire platform off of performing some of the most antisocial behavior possible. A man who is truly antithetical to the type of masculinity we promote here at HOUDINI Magazine.

At HOUDINI Magazine, we promote a masculinity that's about uplifting people, seeing people better than they are, being a pillar of your community, pro-social behavior. It's counterintuitive to this sort of grifter, right-wing, hustle-bro mentality that has been propagandized to the point where we now have men like this who build their entire platform off of hate.

The right will protect this man, and they will fund this man, and they will say they protect him because they value free speech. As we know, if you follow me, the right wing's hypocrisy about free speech has already been exposed. Otherwise I would not be facing fifteen years in a Florida penitentiary for criticizing a right-wing influencer.

So how did Chud the Builder build his platform, you might be wondering. What does he do? Does he do on-the-street interviews? Is he one of those speed runners? Does he play video games? That's what streaming was originally all about, so maybe that's what he does. No. He builds his platform off of agitation and antisocial behavior.

Tennessee is an open carry state, so he open carries. That's his right in this country. Then he goes around, finds Black people, and calls them slurs for the camera. Imagine you are with your family, your child, your wife, your children, going about your day. You stop into a corner store or gas station to get a drink for you and your kids, get a bug juice for the kiddo. And here we have this streamer who's being paid handsomely by his right-wing sycophants, and he walks up to you and calls you the N-word straight to your face, right in front of your children. But if you say anything back, then you're against his free speech.

Is this the type of behavior we want in our society? Do we, the people, really want a man who believes this is the example to set for his own children? Make no mistake: you may have bought a small pittance for your children, but you haven't secured their future.

Your child is what? And I'm addressing you directly, Mr. Chud. Your child is what? Four? Six? Based on her picturesPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

>Artificial scarcity
In the first case, I would use Smith's terminology between "absolute" and "effectual" supply, which is the difference between total goods produced, and goods brought to market, based in "effectual demand" or potential consumers (measured by money). This is obviously expanded on by Keynes, that to increase aggregate demand is to increase aggregate supply, at the threshold of real growth. Thus, giving people "free money" (e.g. redistributed revenue) inherently circulates the social product at a greater capacity.
>Similarly, intellectual property laws can restrict the replication of digital goods that are otherwise infinitely reproducible at near-zero cost.
Yes, especially digital media. Entertainment exclusively deals in protectionism, since a system of competition would dissolve their profits.
>Solving artificial scarcity
Well, some things have a right to be artificially scarce. Our own bodies are monopolies, for example. But this is also interesting, since governments are banning certain representations of persons under the means of intellectual property rights; such that the unauthorised reproduction of one's likeness can be illegal. There are some who then defend IP as essential to personal freedom, since otherwise, your reputation is in danger. But this is the mystery of all representation and idolatry, that at a certain point of mimicry, the map becomes the territory, like the Borges Fable (1946) which Baudrillard discusses, or the Greco-Roman Myth of Pygmalion. Indeed, a person ("persona") is only a mask. A face.
>Necessities
As I have previously devised it, there are 3 types of commodity: (i) necessaries, (ii) consumables and (iii) luxuries. Each are scaled by divsions of labour, between: (i) simple and (ii) complex labour, with the marginal cost being measured according to the constancy of their product (e.g. to the rate of diminishing returns). What concerns necessity should then be conserved by state protections, while what is unnecessary is inherently frivolous and thus subject to the laws of competition. At the same time, if surplus production is frivolous, then surplus consumption is equally frivolous. Thus, money can serve leisure, where it does not serve Post too long.

Anything to reel in the moderates. They're probably trying to use the fact that said moderate will vote for anyone who isn't endorsed by trump in 2026 and 2028 to ratchet right.

The evolution into a war state and war merchant merely repeats the shameful misfortune of the old "Great Japanese Empire."
Japan's dangerous scheme to revive its aggressive state is becoming increasingly blatant day by day.

Recently, Japan's ruling leader convened a "Council of Experts" consisting of former officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Defense, as well as figures and experts from the business, social, and academic sectors, and publicly declared that revising three security-related documents, including the "National Security Strategy," for the "fundamental strengthening of defense capabilities" and the "comprehensive strengthening of national power" would be "an important effort that determines the fate of the nation."

In this mock meeting to determine the future direction of Japan's military and security policy, responses to "new combat methods" based on lessons learned from the situations in Ukraine and the Middle East, "preparations for a long-term war in times of emergency," and the revitalization of the defense industry were discussed intensively.

At a subsequent Liberal Democratic Party meeting, the current leader justified the revision of the "Three Principles on the Transfer of Defense Equipment" and its operational guidelines, which regulate arms exports, citing reasons such as "we need fellow nations that support each other through the transfer of equipment."

All of this is a blatant challenge to international peace and humanity, as it is a clear manifestation of neo-militarism and vengeance seeking to revive the old imperial era by accelerating the evolution into a war state and war merchant.

In fact, Japan's three security-related documents, which are thoroughly rejected by the international community as war strategies aimed at overseas expansion, have already seen their revision goals realized one by one and have entered full operation even before their revisions were finalized at the end of this year.

As is known, the key contents of the three security-related documents that Japan intends to revise include an increase in "defense spending," the lifting of arms export restrictions, and the massive development of aggressive military power.

>jews in general are the problem, regardless of class
I mean, obviously this isn't the case but something like 50-60% of Jews earn over $100k/yr depending on the poll and iirc 90% of them support Israel. Jews are very much the American upper caste and I think there should be more pressure on Jewish groups and individuals to answer for their support for Israel without hiding behind the "Jewish homeland" crap.

Your post is correct though, it's important to be careful about not accidentally allying with Nazis. I just don't think that seriously requires discussion on leftypol though since the only Nazis we get are quick to go mask off and get themselves banned. Nazis are really bad at hiding their racism.

International May Day Agitation
In preparation for the upcoming May Day, there have been multiple actions and calls internationally, we hereby share some of them. In Turkey, multiple agitation actions have been carried out. In Esenyurt and Okmeydanı, as well as in Şahintepe, Okmeydanı, Avcılar and areas along the Kadıköy-Gebze line, leaflets have been distributed, banners erected, graffiti painted and stickers put up, calling for the participation with Partizan in the May 1st demonstration in Taksim Square, Istanbul. Some of the slogans erected include: “On its 50th Anniversary, Taksim Belongs to the People, From Past to Future!” and “The Land is Ours, the Labor is Ours, the World Will Be Ours!”.

Shoplifting and class struggle
On the evening of 15 December 2025, just before 9:40 PM, a large group of people dressed as Santa Claus and his elves went into a supermarket in Montreal. They moved calmly through the supermarket aisles, filling their sacks with food. Within minutes they left taking thousands of dollars' worth of groceries, none of which was paid for. Santa and his masked elves then went to the Christmas tree in the central square. Underneath the twinkling lights, they laid out the stolen food and attached signs that read ‘Christmas is expensive, free food’. The remaining groceries were distributed to community fridges across Montreal. In a statement released afterwards, the group said they were responding to rising food prices and supermarket profiteering. ‘We work more and more just to be able to buy food from supermarket chains that are using inflation as a pretext to make record profits’, the statement read. ‘A handful of companies are holding our basic needs hostage…. For us, that is theft.’ The Santa Claus stunt in Montreal comes at a moment when shoplifting is once again a central political talking point in the UK. In recent years, shoplifting has skyrocketed.

Nah Japan still has a lot of racism and chuddy beliefs. The only difference is Japan isn't run by Zionists so the chuds are full mask off when it comes to their hatred of Jews and the socialists/woke liberal types in Japan have no ADL controlling them so they aren't afraid to call a spade a spade like American liberals. You see this in a few other conservative countries, the lack of a Zionist presence is a huge factor in how their politics develops.

If you want a good comparison look at Korea: the countries developed somewhat similarly through US military occupation, but because Korea was built by Zionists in the 1960's after Israel bought off the American government while Japan was built in the 1950's before Zionist occupation it makes a huge difference in how Koreans feel about Israel. They're basically identical to the West in being split along partisan lines and yet all their politicians from the left and right worship Israel.

My favorite on this chart is Poland though. A country that actually lived through the Holocaust and has a lot of Jews has only 16% favorability for Israel, and the Polish government has said if Netanyahu steps foot in Poland they will arrest him and deliver him to the Hague. Based Poles.


 

Memetic warfare is an effective means of strategy. Like, we're seeing memetic warfare being used at a scale that is quite frankly never been seen before, you know. It's really ridiculous.
There was a story that broke a few weeks ago. Something like 60 million visits a month to this porn site called Motherless, which is one of the skeezier porn sites. It doesn't have a VPN, which is probably why they're… It doesn't have age restriction by state. Like, Pornhub — I live in Florida. I can't go on Pornhub because it's blocked unless I use a VPN. But I can go on Xvideos. Pornhub has a lot more professional content. It's a lot more curated. Xvideos, they don't give a fuck. You can just post whatever you want. They don't have age verification, though, which is probably why they don't give a fuck, right? Motherless is the same way.
And so from what I can gather about this story, there are some pretty egregious videos on this service, right? Because it's unregulated and anyone can post anything. And it's clearly a company that doesn't give a shit about following the law because they're not following the age verification protocol, right? And so they're saying 60 million men go online to a rape academy, is what they're calling this porn website.
But in reality, what the actual story is that, yes, there are some pretty egregious videos. And if you interact with those videos, which are a specific niche of videos of people who are asleep. Yeah, you see how this is egregious, right? You see how this is bad? You see how this is unacceptable? If you interact with those videos, you could be invited to a private Discord server and get a whole bunch of tips on how to engage in such behaviors.
The problem is, instead of going, "oh, okay, that's what's happening, that's fucked up, that's awful," the narrative got spun. 60 million men a month go to this. Like, dude, men are just fucking sick in their fucking heads. This is crazy, right?
But that wasn't an organic story. That story was a psy-op. The narrative, the way it was pushed out, the misinformation around the statistics that paint an image of particular groups of people engaging in particular activities that are horrifying.
Pair this, then, with people like Nick Fuentes on their live streams praising Jeffrey Epstein, praising Jeffrey Epstein, talking about what he did — any man would want to do what he did.

There is no pendulum swing, that’s not how political progress works. When people say ‘woke is dead,’ what they really mean is objective diffrent, no one is talking about things like CRT or masks anymore. People just don’t seem to care about it now. Even many young feminists, who once tried to create made up terms they thought wouldn’t offend anyone to callout are now openly using slurs against people they dislike without worrying about who it offends.


Mandelson, May elections, and the markets: Pressures pile up for Starmer
In these troubled times, spare a thought for poor old Keir Starmer. Britain’s hapless Prime Minister can’t catch a break Everyone – and everything – seems to be lining up against him. And events, at home and abroad, are unlikely to offer any respite. Amongst voters, Starmer is the most unpopular PM in recent history – as will no doubt be seen in the upcoming May elections. The Labour leader and his party are on course to receive a drubbing in contests for the Scottish and Welsh devolved parliaments, and in local councils. But it is not only the electorate who, rightly, despise Starmer. Nobody is happy with the current occupant of Number 10. Across the pond, Donald Trump is also fuming about the uselessness of his British counterpart. Angered by the UK government’s refusal to join his disastrous war on Iran, the American President has repeatedly lashed out at Starmer: remarking that the Labour Prime Minister is “no Winston Churchill”, and threatening to tear up Britain’s trade deal with the USA, if Washington’s normally obedient poodle does not yield to his master’s call. Of course, Starmer’s stance towards Trump’s war has nothing to do with political principles, and everything to do with political expediency. The Labour leader has repeatedly demonstrated that he is happy to grovel and fawn before his boss in the White House. But with the British public in no mood for an Iraq 2.0, Zack Polanski’s Greens breathing down his neck, and elections approaching, Starmer is calculating that a few anti-Trump noises and a dash of feigned defiance might play well with voters and backbench MPs alike.

The Israel Clause: The Sentence System A Has Wanted for 47 Years

What follows is the deepest layer Western analysts have not seen in the Islamabad negotiation. It is not about Israel. It is about a new form of transaction — and Israel is just the first, and most dramatic, case of that form.

In Iran’s 10-point plan there is something mentioned but not seriously analyzed: Iran’s wording contains no “destruction of Israel”. And the United States expects Iran, in the final agreement, to “abandon the threat to destroy Israel” in some form.

This looks like an ordinary diplomatic detail.

<It is not. It is the thing System A has wanted most for 47 years.


Since the 1979 Iranian Revolution, “Death to Israel” has been the core narrative of the Iranian revolutionary regime. Camp David did not make it disappear. Oslo did not. The Abraham Accords did not. The real origin of this war was Israel’s fear that it might be annihilated. And Islamabad may be giving System A the sentence it has been unable to obtain for 47 years.

This sentence will be packaged by System A as a historic victory. Trump will post on Truth Social: “I MADE IRAN RECOGNIZE ISRAEL — NO PRESIDENT BEFORE ME COULD DO THIS.” Israel’s new government will call it the greatest accomplishment of 47 years of diplomacy.

>And System B does not care at all.

Leo is kind of continuing the restoration of The Church's image that Francis started.

During the Gazan Genocide, he was pretty outspoken in terms of asking for peace, I believe even saying that Netanyahu should be investigated for crimes against humanity. There are photos of him praying outside security checkpoints in the West Bank. He also directed Vatican Intelligence (called "The Entity" and may or may not officially exist) to work towards thawing relations between the U.S. and Cuba and push for peace negotiations between FARC and Colombia IIRC.

Thing is, most of Francis' tenure came after the controversial reign of Pope Benedict XVI, who was hard right (I believe he earned the nickname "God's Mastiff") and so people were already more wary of The Church at that time. He also reigned during a comparatively less insane time in geopolitics.

Leo is taking over in the midst of pretty much unrestrained Trumpian psychosis. The chaos Trump brings to both domestic politics and international relations is way harder to ignore. And if you look at the "leaders" to be found in Europe, most give the impression of kind of tacit silence even as Trump's policies directly fuck them and the world at large over. At least in the Biden and Obama years there was a fig leaf of norms and liberal morals. Trump is mask off fascism. He'll say shit like "We're going to kill every Iranian and take their oil" and Europeans who'd spent years by now frothing at the mouth about "Russia's unjustified invasion of Ukraine" were mum, or they'd make mealy mouthed expressions of "concern", and with tears in their eyes they'd ruthlessly purge anyone from their parties that think what Israel is doing constitutes a Genocide.

Against that backdrop, The Catholic Church is arguably one of the only major institutions in the Western World to say "No no no, hold on, this is morally bankrupt and wrong. Stop it." Like liberals and SocDems often give a performance about caring about rights and freedom and shit, but most of them retreated to vague exclamations that the situation in Gaza is "complex" and how we can spend years talking about it and never get anywhere so let's just all be quietPost too long.

And here we arrive at the confusion of critical theory. The reification of ideology. Let's pull up "vulgar" Karl Marx for reference, to set the record straight (bolded emphasis is mine):

The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte, Chapter 1
>Men make their own history, but they do not make it as they please; they do not make it under self-selected circumstances, but under circumstances existing already, given and transmitted from the past. The tradition of all dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brains of the living. And just as they seem to be occupied with revolutionizing themselves and things, creating something that did not exist before, precisely in such epochs of revolutionary crisis they anxiously conjure up the spirits of the past to their service, borrowing from them names, battle slogans, and costumes in order to present this new scene in world history in time-honored disguise and borrowed language. Thus Luther put on the mask of the Apostle Paul, the Revolution of 1789-1814 draped itself alternately in the guise of the Roman Republic and the Roman Empire, and the Revolution of 1848 knew nothing better to do than to parody, now 1789, now the revolutionary tradition of 1793-95.
[…]
>When we think about this conjuring up of the dead of world history, a salient difference reveals itself. Camille Desmoulins, Danton, Robespierre, St. Just, Napoleon, the heroes as well as the parties and the masses of the old French Revolution, performed the task of their time – that of unchaining and establishing modern bourgeois society – in Roman costumes and with Roman phrases.

>But unheroic though bourgeois society is, it nevertheless needed heroism, sacrifice, terror, civil war, and national wars to bring it into being.

It's really simple, it's not about stopping anything, it's about engaging in an incessant jihad against the imperialist bourgeois state. Activism is not "struggle". If the state attempts to violently thwart what you're doing, that means it's working. If your pathetic leftist organizations are planning logistics with the state, it's not a contribution of struggle, but the negation of said struggle. Overall it's not simply about stopping what goes on in Palestine, but fanning the flames of the incessant jihad. The Leftists in the USA just want to vote, not become an enemy of the bourgeois, so most them are bent on making sure this never happens, and they need to be removed, physically if need be. Violence and force is the language of political power. Have any of you ever read Mao? Marx is useless if you're not going to read the red book or the coming insurrection. If you're going to have parades for Palestine, you'd be better off just sitting home and fucking your waifu pillows. Any actual anti-imperialist demonstration looks like a low-scale war, not a parade. The American left actively attempts to de-mask agitators, and they should be confronted, they are zionist operatives. It's like people forgot historically, anarchists and maoists come for the heads of social democrats too, why, because they need to. Don't believe me go read up on the years of lead italy. Also go look at palestine's early liberation movement, before they could expand their struggle they targeted and removed non-militant Palestinian voices who stood for compromise with the colonial state. They hit more Palestinian collaborators than they did Israelis. Food for thought.

I've watched members of the CPUSA dive onto an American flag to smother the flame with their own bodies. Then I watched those same CPUSA members along with the whole alphabet soup of socialist federal‑agent orgs start violently pushing back Maoists and Anarchists, screaming, "NONVIOLENT! YOU'LL ISOLATE THE WORKERS! DON'T TOUCH THE FLAG, YOU FUCKING IDIOTS!". Be real brother, the Amerikkkan left would be the first to extinguish the flames and remove the barricades the moment things got serious for Palestine. They'd be shouting, "AGITATORS RIGHT HERE, OFFICER!" In fact, that's exactly how it's played out over the years. People occupied schools, bolted doors shut, masked up, clashed and then the Leftist NGOs showed up to kick the Anarchists and Maoists out and do the feds' counter‑insurgency for them. And you watched the Palestine movement get reduced to another DSA platform as a result, another anti-imperialist struggle that was reduced to bourgeoisie avenues of criticism and protest. This is what these people do. Pretty soon they'll be campaigning for Gavin's presidency, calling us wreckers and unrealistic for critiquing this.

<Tell us about Valerie Solanas, who you were close to and wrote a defense of following her murder attempt on Andy Warhol in 1968. There was a deafening silence in the underground press around her ideas and actions following the shooting. This seems a little odd given the fact that by this point the New Left had begun to increasingly glorify political violence.
>Ben: Valerie used to stay with me quite a bit as she was fairly homeless and always on the move. There was a lot of parody and irony in her writing, but she was also, and I don't mean this in a bad sense, a fairly crazy person. She saw a need to raise a lot of issues around what happens to women and the SCUM Manifesto was the best way she could express herself. I always loved people who were loose cannons, who didn't fit the mould.
>Sometime later when Black Mask had wrapped up and The Family had started we were involved in the occupation of Columbia University [1968]. Valerie came up there and found me and asked "What would happen if I shot somebody?" I said "It depends on two things - who you shoot and whether they die or not." A week later she shot Andy Warhol.
>After she shot him I wrote a pamphlet supporting her. I may have been the only person who did that publicly. I went up to MOMA and handed it out there. Everybody I met was very negative about it, but, hey, I disliked Andy Warhol immensely and I loved Valerie. I felt she was right in her anger and that he was way more destructive than she was because he was helping to destroy the whole idea of creativity in art. Some people dislike the term, but I feel that creativity is a kind of spiritual act, a profound thing for people to do. Warhol was the exact opposite, he tried to deny and purge the core of creativity and put it on a commercial basis. As a person he was really despicable, as well, and that's why Valerie hated him. He used and manipulated people.
>The attack on Andy was met with silence on the Left and I think that was because it raised issues that no one could deal with. This wasn't violence occurring in some far off place.

Speech on the Peasant Women Day, 15th October, 2025.
Comrades, sisters, and fellow workers!
Today, the representatives of global capital in their glass palace tells us to celebrate. The United Nations, that grand committee for managing the common affairs of the global bourgeoisie, has declared this day the “International Day of the Rural Woman.”

They will speak of our “resilience.”
They will praise our “vital role in the economy.”
They will hand microphones to a few so-called “successful” women and
They will distribute branded T-shirts, buckets, and packets of hybrid seeds.
But we say: No!

We will not be pacified with platitudes and trinkets.
We reject this celebration that masks our exploitation.

Nesrin Abdullah: The Kurdish people have decided to resist in Kobani.
Nesrin Abdullah, commander of the Women's Defense Units (YPJ), held a press conference via Zoom with international press and journalists to assess the latest situation in Kobani. Participating from Kobani, Nesrin Abdullah evaluated the increasing attacks in Kobani and Rojava, the severity of the humanitarian situation, and the risks of potential new interventions.

Nesrin Abdullah, referring to the difficult period the people of Rojava and Kobani are going through, said:
“I am in Kobani. Everyone knows, we are going through a difficult period. Rojava and the Kurdish people are going through a very difficult time. A difficult period is being experienced throughout Syria. These attacks are not only directed at the Kurdish people, but also at the dreams of democracy, justice, and freedom of all the people of Syria. Now we are facing an even more serious situation. A very difficult period is being experienced in Rojava, Cizîr, and Kobani. Afrin and Serêkaniyê are already under Turkish occupation, and the situation there is even worse. In this process, as the Kurdish people, we are under political, military, and moral attacks. These attacks have deeply affected the hope for a common life in Syria. The struggle we have been waging since 2011 has been for a dignified life in Syria where everyone can live, where democracy is established, and where all differences coexist peacefully with their identities, beliefs, and histories. A dirty political game is being played. Our friends are defending our people in every field.”

<A HUMANITARIAN DISASTER COULD OCCUR IN KOBANÊ.

Nesrin Abdullah, reporting that attacks have intensified via Kobanê, said:
“Kobanê is a small geographical area. Geographically, it is isolated from Cizîr. That's why they are attacking it, basing their calculations on this. This city, which is not receiving support, is seen as an opportunity by the enemy and has become a target for attacks. The front is currently in Sirrîn, and the clashes are very intense. The distance between Sirrîn and Kobanê is 30 kilometers. There are many villages along this line. The people, fearing a massacre, have abandoned their villages and taken refuge in the center of Kobanê. This influx will lead to serious humanitarian problems.”

Abdullah stated that the clashes were continuing intensely and thaPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Availing myself of this opportunity, I am going to make our stand towards the relations with the ROK clearer.

We have no reason to sit together with it and will do nothing together with it.

I make clear that we will not deal with it at all.

In fact, we and the ROK have existed in the international community as two states over the last scores of years.

It is a stark reality that the two most hostile states on earth, two belligerent states, have been in acute confrontation on the Korean peninsula.

It was Syngman Rhee, the first president of the ROK, and his clique that rigged up a separate government on one half of the Korean peninsula in stubborn opposition to the aspirations of all the fellow countrymen to get rid of the tragedy of division imposed by foreign forces and live and develop independently on one territory.

In the first Constitution of the ROK fabricated and promulgated in July 1948, Syngman Rhee stipulated that “the territory of the ROK covers the Korean peninsula and its attached islands,” thus codifying its inborn nature which is the most hostile to our state.

So the guy from that video who was shot in the head just died his family have announced.

Boniface Kariuki: Nairobi hawker who was shot in the head by police is dead
Boniface Kariuki, the hawker who was shot by police in the head in Nairobi during protests on June 17, 2025, is dead, the family has said.

The family spokesperson Emily Wanjira confirmed to NTV that Kariuki died on Monday.

Kariuki, a mask vendor, was shot in the head at point-blank range by a police officer during the protests that turned violent as the protesters engaged police officers in day-long running battles.

The demonstration was part of a growing call for justice for Albert Ojwang, the teacher and blogger who was taken from his home in Homa Bay and killed in police custody in Nairobi.

Kariuki has undergone two surgeries at Kenyatta National Hospital where he is admitted in ICU.


Protests are heating up in Kenya. a shooting yesterday and roaming armed gangs:
Kenya protesters clash with men wielding clubs
Kenyan protesters have clashed with club-carrying young men, believed to be loyal to the government, in the centre of the capital, Nairobi.
The demonstration, held in the wake of the death in custody 10 days ago of blogger and teacher Albert Ojwang, was called to demand the sacking of a top police officer.
Police initially said that Mr Ojwang died of self-inflicted wounds, but were forced to retract the statement after an autopsy found that it was likely he died after being assaulted. Two policemen have been arrested in connection with the death.

The protest comes amid simmering tension ahead of next week's first anniversary of the storming of parliament by demonstrators.
Earlier on Tuesday, there were pockets of violence in the capital's central business district when groups of young men riding motorbikes, armed with whips and clubs, attacked protesters.
Videos show the men - described locally as "goons" - seemingly working side-by-side with police, who fired teargas to try and disrupt the demonstrations.
The police have denied any link saying that it has "noted a group of goons armed with crude weapons, in today's protests… The service takes great exception and does not condone such unlawful groupings."

>Why the death of a blogger has put Kenya's police on trial

A vendor was shot during Tuesday's demonstration, sparking renewed outrage from Kenyans who accuse police of using excessive force against protesters.
Boniface Kariuki was reportedly selling masks when a uniformed police officer fired a bullet at close range, critically injuring him.
His father, John Kariuki, told local media that the bullet went through his head, just above the ear.
