re: #170 goddamnedfrank
Basically it was a pogrom. The only argument against it being a pogrom is that the protestors don’t have a unifying racial or religious component but were instead attacked over ideology.
I’d call it a White Terror, just like Patriot Prayer in Portland. It has less semantic load but captures how we’re looking at another aspect of Foucault’s Boomerang: contras who view all their actions as self defense and preservation of peace while escalating violence, allowed to operate by law enforcement or even functioning as irregulars.
