"While the explicit formula for staving off an impending “socialist utopia,” as Tim Scott phrased it, is to win the election, the RNC, many Trump supporters, and their far right and fascist fellow travelers are simultaneously engaging in racist rhetoric about the need for a militant defense of “quiet neighborhoods” from mobs of immigrants and “radical leftists,” hellbent on “replacing” America (reminiscent of the Charlottesville chant “Jews will not replace us”).

The paradoxical call to subvert the law in order to uphold the law is quintessentially fascist. It’s a fascistic worldview that is apparent in the police embrace of the logo of the Marvel superhero The Punisher: a strongman unconstrained by the “weak” and “effeminate” limits of bourgeois legalism in his pursuit of transcendent justice."

Footage from around midnight last night

"From what we know so far, though the boy who was apprehended didn’t have ties to extremist movements, he was a wannabe police officer. Besides a Facebook page littered with pro-police words and images, he had been part of his local police department’s “Explorer” program, which trains teens and young adults in policing activities like traffic stops, domestic disputes, and firearm use, with the aim of eventually piping them into a law enforcement career. [...] One video shows officers passing water out to armed men, including the eventual shooter, and telling the group that “we appreciate you guys.”"

"All over the country, armed far-right and/or police-supporting groups have similarly been encouraged, protected, and even collaborated with by the same police who have driven cars into unarmed protesters and taken their eyes out with rubber bullets."
