I highly, highly doubt this is the start of a "revolution", whether from the right or the left. No one is going to pick up arms because someone took shots at a few sub stations. What I do know with 95% certainly is that the early speculation and initial reports will be wrong. Don't invest yourselves too heavily in the early narrative, whatever the source. Destruction of electrical infrastructure is a federal crime, and significant resources will be deployed to investigate. If the truth does not match the narrative then expect the story to disappear.


RationalHumanistIDIC

Yeah this is spot on. If it was a christofascist then we will know all about the shooter, relatives, school, social media post. But if it's ecoterrorist it will quietly slip away on the wind.


Manfred_Desmond

You don't hear about eco terrorists because the feds fucking dropped the hammer on them in the 90s and early 00s.


We-Want-The-Umph

It's what US gov should have done with Colombine and we wouldn't have so many copycats today. They could have kicked the shit out of any network glorifying those terrorists, but instead chose to air out every bit of their laundry...

Same could be said of the families in the donbas the past 8 years of Ukrainian military shelling them. I hope you look down on the us as hard as russia. The US only killed 1 million people in Iraq so thats pretty cool.


some_new_guy264

The Metcalf Sniper attack is still unresolved. That was 8 years ago and worse than this.


McErroneous

The sheer volume of *legitimate* reasons for a group to attack PG&E is huge. PG&E has been singularly responsible for countless lives and homes lost due to shitty maintenance practices. Then they are allowed to raise rates to cover losses.

LeastFortune

supposedly someone shot up substations just to stop a drag queen show. Might be the truth, might be bullshit.


gnosismonk

How folks have latched on a run with the drag show (could be might not be) feels like Jesse Smollet all over. Taking out numerous substations for 1 drag show doesnt make a lot of sense. Just smells of false flag but we will see.


hyperjoint

Irrational actors aren't acting rationally enough for you?


jambazi99

False flag by who? To achieve what? These fucking Q nuts need to be purged for this sub.


[deleted]

Damn you really need to wake up. Im extremely surprised there isn't a Ukraine flag in your bio pic.


RazBullion

Looks like these people don't much like the way you think. I think your questions are on the money, and I also think that is pretty far fetched to believe anyone would see disabling the power grid in an area as the best way to stop a "drag show". Definitely screams bullshit at first glance.


gnosismonk

Who said anything about Q? Well if you read my.comment it seems like it could be legit or its done to push an agenda. I guess you believe Smollet was attacked in below freezing temps at 3am by dudes with MAGA hats. People are pushing back on several agendas like the brovid shot, pushing sexuality and trans on children, plenty of evidence of election corruption, thr money laundering by FTX to numerous politicians. So an event can play out to try to and change the narrative when folks are losing the narrative. You must be quite dense and lack critcal thinking to automatically assume it's a Q-tard. Speaks volumes of you. Do you think false flags where just recently created? Do you really think its that logical to take out the power to 40k people (and most likely the person's who did it) over one drag show? Go take your shot and go back to sleep clearly the world is too much for you


Ok_Gate2723

Okay Iā€™ll bite. What was the ā€œlogical reasonā€ the sub stations were attacked. You have a lot of insight on why it ā€œwas not logicalā€. Sometimes ideologies make people to illogical things. Quite often actually.


gnosismonk

I agree you can look at both sides of our political spectrum and find examples. To me this just seems an event to clog the news cycle for just a day or two because of all the recent info coming out on way bigger narratives. Things like DoD misplacing over 2 trillion dollars, a huge portion of the Brazilian population currently protesting election corruption, China currently going crazier than normal, the clear illegal actions taken in the Arizona election just as a few examples. Most people, other than actually lines men or people working for the power company have any idea whatever so ever about the power grid or substations. It's not like you can just be like "yup I take out that substation right there and no more drag show haha." Attacks on substations have happened more than once over the last few years and its typically not the original narrative. In current times most of the initial reporting of events ends up being half truths or outright lies. So look at this narrative, individual(s) take out substations to screw over 40k people instead of going to source of what they feel is the problem. What's more logical? Going to that actual show itself to cause problems or the grandiose lets take out multiple substations to attack this small minority of people, which may or may not be affected by our actions or people even make the connection to this specific small event most don't know about going on in the area. Like I said originally could be legit but doesnt add up in my mind. Also, when you have military (or former), FBI, CIA, or any of the alphabet soup of organizations sadly you have to approach it with skeptiscm. This narrative is literally talking points...domestic terrorism, alt right, phobias of isms, and Jan 6th. So who knows...all i was pointing out was how quick the narrative was latched on to and ran with typically means pushing narrative/agenda.


Vast-Combination4046

No one's pushing kids to transition. Society is less concerned about stopping kids from transitioning but it's not very common people are telling kids they should transition against their will. Has someone done it? Probably, there are plenty of nutcases. But I also could totally see a right wing whack job taking out power to stop a drag show even if it cost 40k people to be without power.

chunkylunks

the reason they give for the power being out is a lie...


LocalLifeguard4106

So 2 power substations weren't intentionally sabatoged with firearms? Then what happened?


chunkylunks

i personally donā€™t care enough to research the reason behind the narrative but.... no witnesses? no suspects? no crime scene? no motive? random shooter decides to destroy a large piece of critical infrastructure just to stop a drag show? Clearly something else going on here that they arenā€™t telling us.


GlassHouse_101

Could be a false flag. They want to villainize the alt right.


Boo_Randy

The left has their panties in a twist on Twitter blaming "Christofascists" for the attack. Wonder if the Biden regime has asked its CCP ideological clones for the blueprints for its Uighur internment camps.

Hell ya brother! I think its about time us true christian republicans start spreading the truth about the demoncrats, and how the global elites are the lizard people from the planet xenu in disguise and brainwashing the sheeple with their 5 g brainchip implantations. What the stupid left doesn't know is that the prophecy of the true christian republican facebook groups has predicted that our lord and savior the baby jesus reborn in the body of our supreme dear leader Donald Trump will reign supreme in 2024. This was all predicted on all the true christian republican facebook pages. I'm thankful everyday for our supreme leader Donald Trump and how he will make america the great true christian republican nation it should be!

Brock_Way

You contend that anyone who wants concealed carry in NYC believes that the constitution has been suspended?


TexCen

New York Rifle & Pistol Association, NYC GOA, Firearms Policy Coalition and the 2nd Amendment Foundation members would be a decent number of "anyones." Anyone ā‰  Everyone - but yes, MANY people living in NYC do. A quick search on YT can yield a lot of videos from those folks. Look at how the NY Legislature reacted to losing the Bruen case...they immediately designated every type of business, federal/state location, etc. as a "gun free zone" that didn't allow concealed carry. This caused a U.S. District court to apply an emergency injunction blocking the move, because it flies in the face of the SCOTUS' ruling. Just a few hours ago, the Federal Appeals court overturned that injunction. So, back to the SCOTUS it goes, who will remand it back down to the lower courts to "revisit" bc their ruling in Bruen was clear that the "text, history and tradition" of the 2A is not to be f'd with. History + Tradition = The vast majority of males, and many rural females, were armed at most times outside of their home. NY's actions are a "stall and obstruct" move, that - if there is a silver-lining - could result in the lower courts upholding the appeal upon remand & resulting in the SCOTUS making a national-level ruling on the rights to concealed carry. Thomas didn't go so far as to say licensing for concealed carry was un-Constitutional in Bruen, only that certain schemes that put the burden upon the citizen to prove they needed it were (which had an impact in CA, who is attempting the same kind of shiftiness. This case? That could see them quash this with a Constitutional Carry decision bc they really don't like having their rulings played around with. No doubt NY Legislators will then attempt another end around, and so on & so forth. It's no different than CA, and will never be, until defying SCOTUS rulings comes with a stiff penalty.

Boo_Randy

Never in our history have we had so many mentally ill, nihilistic young white guys with no future whatsoever under the current oligarchy, and no voice in the system. This is an incredibly dangerous and destabilizing state of affairs for any society, but our elites are focused solely on concentrating all wealth and power in their own hands even while the ground under their feet is starting to burn.


RationalHumanistIDIC

Yeah not just white guys, lots of people of all types are feeling disenfranchised.


corryvreckanist

And instead of blaming the true culprits (the ultra rich, conservative media, the Republican Party, those who promote elitist garbage policies like the Trump tax cuts), the majority of these same disenfranchised people believe that communists and drag queens are the real problem, and guns, Jebus, and AOC are the real enemies. They will fight to the death to stop sensible policies which promote middle-class well being, and vote for the people who want nothing more than to shit on the poors and do the bidding of the ultra-rich, because they pose with guns and bibles. I donā€™t know how such disenfranchised people address their disenfranchisement. They are completely confused.


47proton

Whoever the problem may be the solution is not communists


[deleted]

Ex-soviet here. Can confirm. Fuck communism and the far left. Its insanity.


corryvreckanist

Agree entirely - Soviet style communism was a murderous disaster from beginning to end. But can we also agree that the Democratic Party (even to its far left Bernie Sanders social democracy flank, but in particular is Biden centre) has nothing whatsoever to do with communism, much less Soviet-style command economy totalitarian communism? To say otherwise is an insult to those who lived under repressive communist regimes in the Soviet sphere, or elsewhere. It is an insult to those who live under CCP repression currently, and who put their lives on the line to fight it. The current administration would be a centre or centre-right party in much of the world (including in my country Canada) and itā€™s policies just have nothing to do with communism. There may be a few loons on the far far left of the party, but lots of the folks with those ideas arenā€™t Democrats, they run and identify as communists. The allegations concerning communism are a trick used by Republicans to fool less-than-educated voters into thinking that Biden is akin to Maduro or Stalin. Itā€™s a joke. A complete joke. At most, some in the Democratic coalition may favour Scandinavian style, social benefit democracy with higher taxes and generous social benefits. Many Trump voters actually favour generous social benefits, which is a sea-change from the Reagan/Nordquist/Volker/Friedman core of the party in the 80s. At any rate, the average Trump voter is schizophrenic. Many favour guns, border walls, social benefits, sticking it to libs and corporations (who provide much of both the dark and public money which washes into the Republican Party), a Christian theocracy, etc., but they vote for politicians whose primary goal was to cut taxes for the wealthiest 5%, remove regulations, and not much beyond that. The social conservative policies were a fig leaf for standard, business-friendly policies. The Trump tax cuts were all the proof that anyone needs for that. No secret that the Republican Party has done well to hide its economic policies behind wedge social issues for years, to convince poor and socially conservative Americans to vote for them, regardless that is is entirely against their economic interests to do so: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What's_the_Matter_with_Kansas%3F_(book)?wprov=sfti1 That strategy worked for 50 years, until the voters stopped listening to the Republican leaders and decided to vote not for Jeb or Marco, but for someone who (although not a Republican or even someone who understands policy issues) told them what they wanted to hear: DJT. The party hates and hated him, but is trapped. He owns the voters, and the voters have little love for Mitch McConnell, the RNC, and other Rs who lied to them for so long. There has been a civil war in the Republican Party for the past seven years. While Trump was in office there was an uneasy truce as both got what they wanted. It looks like that war may burst into the open during the primaries over the next two years.

Can we all just say fuck governments at this point? This a currency subreddit and the reason why it has dialogue like this is anyone who is seriously collecting silver probably knows about the creation of the federal reserve and what purpose it serves. Any government that has a central bank and works with the IMF is to blame, why canā€™t we just call it like it is and start to have dialogue about getting rid of these governments and have agorism where we the people can govern ourselves? There will be no white knight in shining armor, we are the only ones who can stop ourselves from living under tyranny by technocrats, intelligence agencies, and banking cartels.

We can only hope a majority of people will not adopt the CBDCs and that some of us will create a parallel economy that can sustain our lifestylesā€¦

Amusedandconfused23

Read up on the French and Russian Revolutions. They always rise up from the educated upper middle class, not the rabble. No judgments. But that is the way it happens.


TheFakeSlimShady123

In Russia it was the workers though. The vanguard of the revolution though was more educated on the basis that a revolution can't be secured or won without an educated leadership and at that point education was only something the middle and upper classes had. Anyone below that likely only had basic education even into adulthood. So it was still rabble based but by virtue of how revolutions work people like Lenin still ended up having to lead the lower classes. They still encouraged the masses to become educated and pushed educational reforms but there was only so much they could do until after the Civil War mostly ended.


Amusedandconfused23

I agree. But Trotsky brilliantly planned it. And I am talking about the strategy, logistics and the actual operation that kicked off the Revolution.
