Does anyone have anything concrete on the Biden regime aiding, coordinating, or assisting the crackdowns on college campuses in the USA last year?

I'm looking for something to throw at a lib. I'd thought that DC coordinated the crackdowns but I can't find anything at all, all the news sources I can dig up either make vague claims based on Biden's speeches or don't talk about any kind of coordination.

I'd be frankly shocked if the waves of repression across the country weren't coordinated in some fashion by some body. Since US policing has been steamlined and vertically integrated since 9/11 I assumed their would be documents showing it was coordinated by federal authorities through police intelligence fusion centers, national intelligence briefs, things like that but I cannot find anything. Before I eat my crow and admit I was wrong does anyone have anything showing federal coordination and involvement?

Just humor me; Would Europe launch it's whole military at the US if the US invaded Greenland?

Edit: I got a better look at the surveillance video. Looks like what is actually happening is that the guy's gun is under-gassed. The rounds aren't producing enough energy to fully cycle the weapon, resulting in jams or requiring him to manually chamber the next round. There goes the professional international assassin theory, I'd think a professional would test their set up to make sure everything was adjusted to cycle properly.

The way these are set up - When you fire a normal semi-auto pistol the energy from the shot pushes the slide back so the gun can chamber a new round. You can then fire again immediately.

With these things the slide is locked closed when you fire. That means the slide doesn't move, which means it doesn't make noise. All the gas goes out the barrel through the suppressor. The brass stays in the chamber.

All of this combines, with the right silencer and ammo, to make a gun that is ridiculouslly bad action movie quiet. If you're standing right next to it you'll hear something but it's not going to sound like a gunshot.

Idk what the hell is going on here but it sure does look like some cool John Wick level shit.

“I would choose to be shot to death right here, in Kyiv instead of going to the frontline,” Serhiy, a 17-year-old high school graduate, told Al Jazeera. “I wouldn’t be able to raise my hand at the people of my blood.”

He cited the customs of Cossacks, a medieval caste of frontier warriors in what is now central Ukraine who formed quasi-democratic communities and combined nomadic cavalry tactics with firearms.

“Our forefathers, Cossacks, didn’t allow a man who had no children, no heirs, to go to war,” Serhiy said. “I would have done the same. If there are no people, who the hell needs this land?”

Finance capitalism, kid. Finance capitalism wants your land.

Nice that there are kids who haven't bought in to the "russians are orcs" ukronazi bullshit.

There's an uncomfortable comfort in shitposting through the coolzone again after all these years. And yeah, I do kinda want to see some kid micro-ing a few hundred drones through an air-defense network.

This is specific to America bc it looks like there are labor fights going on in Canda, France, Worst Korea, and maybe some other places over rail contracts right now.

Someone was saying "Biden pushed back and blah blah blah railworker contracts" and being the shitty little hate fueled imp I am I went try to find out what happened. Well wouldn't you fucking know it, the rail workers who are most in need of improved working conditions, the people who actually operate the trains, haven't agreed to shit?

It's confusing as fuck trying to sort through shitty Google links and labor hostile/company friendly press. This little tidbit, that the people who absolutely need better working conditions don't have them and don't have an agreement to get them, was hidden in the fine print if it's mentioned at all. If anyone who is more familiar with this can check my work and confirm that my basic thesis;

  • Railway companies gave contracts to the people who are not critical to the operation of each individual train, but have not made a deal with people who must be on the train for the train to operate

is mostly correct?

Funny enough, the Trots at WSWS seem to have the best reporting but I can't really use that with anyone who doesn't already speak Maoist Standard English. The most recent article on the US rail labor contracts I can find dates to ~November 13, where it looks like all the papers bought one AP or Reuters release and each re-formatted it for their own websites. Nothing really since then unless there's a secret labor journal I don't know about.

Some absolutely fucking arcane nonesense made up bullshit that is NOT ACTIONABLE. People can't do shit if the POTUS wants to get information from the fucking FSB. It's not in the scope of their lives.

"do not obey in advance" do not fucking obey what? Do not obey the president called Vlad to get drinks? How do you do not obey that? Fuck this fucker.

She's so cool.

Even if you're a committed pacifist you should know how to check if a gun is loaded, remove the magazine, remove a loaded round from the chamber, and activate the safety.

I am declaring unlimited vendetta on anyone who starts boosting Walz. I will fight you. I will bite. I have 20 years of rage built up from living with those racist passive aggressive backstabbing jackasses, I lived under a year of police terror under the Walz regime, I am not letting anyone lesser evil that fuck. Tim Walz sent the US FUCKING ARMY to crush an anti-cop PoC uprising. That's who he is, that's what he did. He's not a nice old man, he's not a "progressive", he's not going to save Palestine, he's not going to fix anything. He's the competent fascist we believed was going to follow Trump and that's why he's being picked. They didn't pick him for his progressive ideals, they picked him because he proved he'd be willing to send armed soldiers in to America's streets to ruthlessly crush dissent Because he actually did that.

"Don't date in the organization" should be at least the first hour of any orgs on-boarding meeting.

It's really good though but you have to be able to take the specific cases Sun Tzu is talking about and apply them to conflict more generally. Like the "look for different kinds of dust clouds to figure out what your enemy is doing" bit doesn't apply much today, but you can look for tell tale signals that offer insight on the actions of your enemies. Are the pigs on foot or in cars? What kinds of weapons are they carrying? Are they in regular uniforms or riot gear. It sounds obvious, but most people have the same understanding of conflict as those ancient noble failsons

Y'all massively overestimate how much the average person understands about conflict and struggle. Sun Tzu has an important place and doesn't deserve all this scoffing.

I firmly maintain that phones are a symptom and not a cause. The cost of going outside is much. Many third places have collapsed under the crushing weight of austerity. Our time is ruthlessly regulated. Transport is expensive. Everyone is tired and sick.

Phones, social media, are what's left.

Yeah so European Ashkenazi Israeli's dominate politics and the economy in Israel and systematically racialize and discriminate against African and Middle Eastern Jews of Magrehbi, Middle Eastern, Yemeni, Beta Israel, and Sephardic heritage. The degree of discrimination has varied over time but intra-Jewish racism has been a fact of Israeli life since the declaration of the state. Zionism is fundamentally a European settler-colonial fascist ideology, a european or white supremacist ideology, and that continues to be reflected in the racialization of brown Jewish people in Israel.

Recognizing and learning about this history of intra-Jewish racism and discrimination is important because it directly strikes against Zionism's claim that Israel is a Jewish that that represents all Jewish people and is the only authentic voice of Jewish people. In reality Israel is not monolithic.

Hundreds of Chinese laundrymen have worked on Britain’s warships since the 1930s, with most hired from Hong Kong to wash and press sailor’s uniforms and officers’ white tablecloths.

Nepalese Gurkhas will replace them due to fears that Beijing could threaten the servants’ families in China to make those on board ships pass on Royal Navy secrets, The Sun has reported.

It is the 21st fuckiung century what in the absolute fuck is this?!

God I hate this shit. Ffs Amy it is LITERALLY A CRIME TO VOICE SUPPORT FOR PALESTINIANS IN SEVERAL EUROPEAN COUNTRIES. THERE ARE TWO FUCKING CARRIER BATTLE GROUPS ON THEIR WAY TO GAZA AND THE US IS EMPTYING IT'S STORES SO ISRAEL CAN KEEP DOING GENOCIDE. SHUT THE ENTIRE FUCK UP.

Just so everyone knows, they did lead a peaceful march a few years back and the Israelis shot thousands and thousands of them.

I was just thinking about how many lins are 100% convinced that if you try to provide universal public housing to everyone you must also do a bunch of genocides and have one spy per person in your society and have no food.
