How long do they think they can keep up that pretense?
I like Soymalia
The Domestic Terrorists that have taken over aren’t armed? Then why aren’t police excoriation them to jail to await trial for insurrection?

Tucker’s show on Chaz this past Thursday was excellent.
On Reddit there’s a video in which a woman makes an announcement over a loudspeaker.
She announces that armed security is being provided by the John Brown Gun Club, and tells the Chazians “they’re on our side.”
The JBGC is the armed faction of revcom, the Revolutionary Communist Party. They’re Maoists.
Kind of like the peace in Poland after the Nazis and Soviets finished taking over?
There was an old Maoist front for the RCP or more likely the Communist Workers Party (CWP) in the 80’s called the John Brown Anti-Klan Network (if my memory is accurate). Perhaps this is the precursor organization.
Someone else is working on a report on the JBAKN but I don’t remember. Might be a thesis. Will try to find out who it was and if it is being published.
Remind me on occasion about this request.
There’s a lot of overlap & commingling between Antifa & RCP. Nothing stopping anyone from participating in both groups. RCP has long history of hijacking other groups & starting numerous front groups.
Antifa is a confabulation of Maoism & Anarchism.
The Antifa in the US isn’t really an offshoot of the old European resistance group dating back to WWII.
Although it has borrowed somewhat from the Euro Antifascists— & some members may have travelled & met up with European leftists-— the American Antifa are in fact west coast anarchists who have merged with the old RCYB, the RCP’s youth group.
Although the RCYB seems to have disappeared, in fact theyre just wearing the black ninja suits now instead of the silly RCYB t-shirts. Their Maoist political line is embedded deep behind the useful idiocy of Antifa’s window-smashing nihilism. The RCYB was doing EXACTLY what we’re seeing Antifa doing now— smashing windows, burning cop cars, 40 years ago and only around Berkeley.
And 40 years ago, the Anarchists were comparatively docile in their little Bay Area collectives & communes & only *talking* about smashing capitalism, in meetings with RCP.
The new costumes & branding of the RCYB & merger with Anarchists as Antifascists has occurred in the last 10 years. Antifa emerged out of Occupy.
By branding themselves Antifascist and coopting the European logo theyve succeeded in painting themselves as a noble resistance to a perceived Hitler, and making themselves very popular among the generation that grew up playing with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figures & watching the tv show.
It’s all packaging & marketing.
But the nihilism has Maoist Red Guards at its core.
MadMax, you may be correct about the link to the John Brown Anti-Klan Network. That name rings a bell— was that the group involved in a shootout in Greensboro?
Seems like there was a lot of rivalry between CWP & RCP back in the day, and the Anti-Klan Network was indeed a thing in one or the other of those groups.
The John Brown Anti-Klan Committee wishes to criticize Frontline for printing the letter by Ted Grounds (March 19, 1984) which promotes the view that revolutionaries bring the state’s repression down on themselves and others by being revolutionary. Grounds attacks the Communist Workers Party (CWP) for raising the slogan “Death to the Klan!” and blames them for the murder of five of their members by the Ku Klux Klan. Grounds’ letter echoes the line of the KKK and the Nazis–that they were responding to the provocations of the “commies.” The truth is that these murders were organized by the U.S. government as an act of terrorism and a bloody message to all who would dare support the Black liberation struggle, oppose the growing armed white supremacist right, or call themselves communists. In raising the slogan “Death to the Klan!” the CWP and other anti-Klan forces join the entire Black Nation which has raised and fought for this slogan for years. It is not empty bravado. It is a political demand that says the Klan has no right to exist, this is not a “free speech” issue or a question of bourgeois democracy. “Death to the Klan!” is a mass demand that has been raised and should be raised by all people who hate racism and violence. Prior to the consolidation of fascism and seizure of state power by the Nazis, ordinary people and the German labor movement broke up any Nazi meeting they could find using baseball bats and other weapons. It was not those who opposed Hitler who brought him to power, but the people who did nothing (except bad-mouth the resistance) that later became known as ’good Germans.’ –Lisa Roth, John Brown Anti-Klan Committee
The CWP/RCP rivalry might relate to the WUO/RCP's rivlary from their Bay Area days. They seem to have worked out their differences recently for purposes of opposing Trump.
