European eco-crazies encourage recruiting 'arrestable' members for planned mayhem campaign in the states
American Thinker ^ | 6 Jun, 2023 | Monica Showalter

They saw what happened (or didn't happen) when antifa made American cities unliveable. Now it's their turn.

Election time is on, so what better than for Europe's eco fanatics, the toddler-like people who have been blocking highways and throwing their food on Europe's art masterpieces, to take their show on the road to the states come summer?

According to the Daily Mail:

Europe's top climate activists are planning a 'large-scale civil disobedience campaign' of highway blockages, hunger strikes and disruption at 'federal properties' in the US in August, DailyMail.com can reveal.

Leaders from Extinction Rebellion (XR) and other European groups known for their large-scale disturbances are rapidly expanding their US-based franchise, Declare Emergency, to create mayhem on this side of the Atlantic.

In a videoconference, which DailyMail.com attended, the Europeans taught their US allies how to raise money, boost membership and recruit scores of 'arrestable' members to spearhead the most aggressive protests.

"Arrestable" members? One can just imagine.

What we have here is a group with money that's planning in advance to shut the U.S. economy down through its odious road protests in the name of going green. They'll call it "peaceful" protests, but they're exactly the opposite of that in that the highway blockages will be done through force. Thousands of workers -- the ones who don't make enough money to afford city rents or homes, and who must live on the outskirts of the cities -- will be kept from their jobs, costing companies millions of hours of productivity, at a time when they're desperately trying to get workers back to the office.

Perhaps responsible workers should all go on strike until the government violently suppresses these peaceful protests. “Couldn’t work today. I heard the highway was blocked.”

Cui bono (whom does it benefit)?

The New World Order doesn’t “benefit” anyone but does weaken nearly everyone. (Except China-CCP and the very wealthy ruling classes.

I would be willing to bet that this group’s experience in the USA may be met with a more violent public reaction than how it was in Europe.

From the point-of-view of social and organizational patterns, the idea by am "elite" to recruit others to be foot soldiers and fodder is quite akin to the Islamic elite recruit suicide bombers, and of course before that, the Japanese kamikaze. Other historical examples abound.

These people may be idiots, but they aren’t stupid. Their highly covered events will be exclusively performed in deep blue areas with total inaction by the local democrat officials.

They know not to venture outside of that safe zone until they need to provoke a reaction to get more press.

They can have LA, San Fran, Chicago, Seattle, St. Louis, NYC, and DC for all I care.

I’m waiting for the first pregnant woman or medical emergency person to sue the crap out of them individually and collectively. Time to remove their mask.

‘Throat punch’.

Learn it, practice it (to prevent death), apply it when encountering these bastages when they block the road.

Quick & effective.

Then a peroneal nerve strike if they try to get up.

I would rather have proper law enforcement than death squads, but it looks like we’re going to have death squads.

That's espionage, sabotage, insurrection -- and any Demagogic Party supporter is a co-conspirator.

I thought astroturf was bad for the environment?

I like Monica Showalter’s work. But this article is quite inconclusive, highly speculative — such as we see daily on the networks, e.g., “so-and-so said such-and-such: what do YOU make of it?”

I didn’t get what the headline’s “arrestable” meant; but maybe it meant “expendable”? What do YOU make of it?

Germany has just shut down their monies to stop them from attacking them.

"Arrestable" members? One can just imagine.

Recruit some homeless addicts, offer them some cash, arrest would be meaningless to them.

I think “arrestable” means people who won’t balk at pulling stunts that will inevitably get them arrested. That’s kind of XR’s stock in trade.
