Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Finally, some uplifting news. But knowing Republicans they probably did it themselves to play the victim. They were quoted saying "we will not be silenced". Lady you won't even shut the fuck up to hear what people think of you. There's no bigger hint we can give. These people don't care about protests we need action.
Yep, these vibes for sure. That's a fucking nice stencil they got there.

This one has pics of the "vandalism":

Spray painting Biden 2020 and BLM with an Anarcy symbol gives it away that this indeed was self started.
It's so funny when they think Biden has a cult of rabid supporters.
Not only that - who tries to be so neat with an Anarchy symbol? No one who has ever drawn one before.
The stencil in OP is giving me similar vibes, but WTH do I know?
Or these vibes...
"Sir, when you hear the shots, reach up to your ear and squeeze the little packet so the liquid smears on your ear."
"Like this?"
"Please don't eat it, sir."
Surely they would never do such a thing! What's next? you're going to say that people of color DIDN'T do this?
You guys have to figure out if you think setting fire to your political opponents' headquarters is a good thing or not. If it helps you, then why care if it's a false flag operation?
"The Republicans are trying to paint us as supporting vandalism and arson! Glad to see their stuff get damaged, though."
They are the party that is in power and actively trying to destroy elections. In a state that generally votes VERY blue outside of a few rural counties.
I'm not going to lose much sleep over watching some nazi buildings burn. But there is a very real argument that "New Mexico is dangerous" and collecting some insurance money is more valuable to the republicans at this point.
That teeny little stencil looked so huge in their garage. This was done by people who have never done anything like this before. I doubt it was anyone outside of their circle.
I support it. They can torch everything as far as I care.
They're not exactly playing fair with the working class, property destruction gets attention. Fuck em. The time for lovey-dovey liberal bullshit is long gone. Direct action gets the goods.
They're going to use every dirty trick they can against us, this is class warfare.
