Why has the Peanut the Squirrel thing exploded on here?
Because it's the perfect anarchotyranny tale. The system that refuses to lock up murderers will send a SWAT team to kill your pet for lack of a permit
As the anarchotyranny situation is about to explode, this did too 🧵👇
The anarchotyranny is probably the best example of how America is becoming South Africa
There, employers must follow BEE (affirmative action) legislation to the letter or face government wrath, all while 95% of farm murders go unsolved and entire cities decay
Here, murderers are rarely even given a slap on the wrist if the races are "right" (black murderer, white victim), but the smallest details of tyrannical licensure, permits, and similar sorts of bureaucracy wholly foreign to America until FDR created it and Obama dramatically expanded it.
So, on one side, you get attempted murder suspects and admitted murderers let off the hook because of "mental issues," but the state will seize your children to trans them under the "child protection" framework and ignore anything approaching justice or law while doing so
And New York is the best example of this anarchotyranny problem
On one hand, it has done nothing whatsoever to stop its criminal underclass from ruining NYC. In fact, no cash bail and similar problems have turned the city into Johannesburg
Meanwhile, it's also the state and city of regulatory tyranny. Whether building codes and restrictions, rent controls that are an infringement of property rights, sky-high taxes, regulations of the sort Letitia James has used to squeeze @vdare and Donald Trump, and brutal crackdowns on those who defend themselves from criminals, whether Bernie Goetz or Daniel Penny
And Peanut the Squirrel, of course, was from Pine City, NY. Not in NYC, but the state is about as tyrannical as the city
So, because of a lack of a license, which could have just been easily obtained upon notification, a SWAT team raided a family's house and confiscated a pet, then had it euthanized
All just out of spite. There was no reason for it. They claim "disease" is a problem, but if that was the case they wouldn't have invited tens of millions of unchecked illegal immigrants into the country. They just hate normal people and want to unleash the state on them
That's what the state can do when it wants. When it wants to go after even minor permitting violations, it can do so with a SWAT team armored like it was in Iraq in '07
So, the state does have the capacity to go after the crime problem. It just doesn't want to. It doesn't want to lock up the illegal immigrants that are r*ping and murdering kids, much less keep them from entering the country. It doesn't want to go after the gangbangers, the thugs, the drug dealers, or the prostitutes, all of whom have turned cities like New York and Philadelphia into Third World-style slums.
Thus, your city is a slum purely because the state wants it to be. The streets could be cleansed of homeless drug addicts and devoid of needles. You wouldn't have to give car or home break-ins a thought. Petty crime would be absent from the streets and organized crime gone completely.
All of that could be achieved. They have the resources, as shown by the crackdowns on the J6 protesters and Peanut the Squirrel
But they don't want to
Altogether, that creates a near-perfect state of anarchotyranny
On one hand, it does nothing to stop the crime that matters. The petty crime, the homelessness, the drugs, the murders and chaos, etc
On the other, it has the resources to be fully tyrannical when it so chooses. If you pray outside an abortion clinic or protest outside the Capitol, you can expect the FBI to hunt you down. If you own a pet and don't get your bureaucratic ducks in a row, you can expect the state to raid you with armored vehicles. It reads all your messages, listens to your phone calls, and tracks your online activity
That's anarcho-tyranny
And people are finally waking up to it
It's taken long enough, after a slew of many unpunished murders and cracked down upon misdemeanors, but now everyone who is even a remotely normal or valuable citizen notices that their government hates them for being normal and a contributor to society
It meanwhile loves the thugs, murderers, and so on
That situation is, even more so than the over-taxation we experience or the pointless foreign wars, the situation closest to exploding
Taxes can be paid, if grudgingly. The national debt has been ignored for this long, and so can be ignored for a bit longer. There's no draft, so the same is true of the wars
But the anarcho-tyranny? That impacts everyone. You are ruthlessly punished for even minor infractions and subjected to every sort of bureaucratic tyranny, all while the government aids millions of invaders who illegally cross the border and turns a blind eye to everything from foreign gangsters taking over apartment buildings to black women laughing about stabbing white children to death
That can't be avoided. It can't be ignored. It impacts all of us morally and emotionally, and often leads to the attack upon or death of a loved one that even red states don't punish
So, that's why people online care about a pet squirrel in New York
It's not really the squirrel that matters. It's the anarcho-tyranny, a problem that's been around for decades but exploded as an issue since Floyd overdosed on fentanyl
That is slowly turning into a critical issue in which normal people, valuable citizens, are firmly opposed to nearly all of the governments across the union. The above story of Ohio's Timmeka Eggleton murdering a 3-year-old and getting away with it, occurred in a deep red state, after all. Same with the murderers of Ethan Liming
That's a huge issue, and government officials, particularly in red states and cities, who don't get onboard with the sentiment that wants bureaucracy/administrative requirements reduced and mercilessly punished are going to face the fire
Not everywhere, of course. Sadly this isn't the America of the Sons of Liberty anymore. But it will start to happen in some places and, as always, grow as a fiery issue once some places start to crack down on crime Singapore/@nayibbukele-style or ignore their constituents and start to face massive disorder
Incredibly, it's the squirrel that's drawn attention to this, but that squirrel is just a minor symptom, not the root of the matter
Indeed other words, in executing peanut and leaving alive the worst humans in the country, our anarchotyrannic overlords have set a standard quite unfair to squirrels
NYC's communist is quoting Nelson Mandela, a communist terrorist known for murdering white civilians
As a reminder: Nelson Mandela was not a kindly leader as presented in Invictus. He did not want peace; he explicitly rejected it
A short 🧵on Mandela's terror campaign👇
For one, Mandela was in prison because he created a civilian-bombing terror group called "Spear of the Nation," and premised it on the success of Fidel Castro and Che Guevara in Cuba
He then carried out dozens of bombings on civilian farms and infrastructure
MK was backed by the Soviet Union, co-led by a Lithuanian communist named Joe Slovo, and the Mandela-era leadership was convicted of trying to violently overthrow the state
This was after Mandela convinced the ANC, in the '50s, to request arms and support from the People's Republic of China
Once in prison, Mandela refused to renounce violence
In fact, the South African government offered to release him from prison if he would simply pledge to not engage in terrorism anymore. He refused
He then smuggled messages to MK's new leadership through his murderous wife Winnie, and those messages helped them plan their attacks and tactics in the terror bombing campaign of the '70s and '80s, which led to hundreds of white civilians killed and thousands wounded
*I typed this incorrectly. It was this percentage per generation, not per year. However, the same study estimates that around the same percentage died at the scene of the crime, in some form or another, or while awaiting trial, which would boost it to 1-2% per generation
So yes, not per year, per generation. Still a lot of people and enough for a eugenic effect over time
All you think you know about King Leopold II and the Belgian Congo is wrong
You were told it was a hellish land of cruel exploitation. That's a lie
In reality, Congo was a colonial jewel, the atrocities didn't occur, and the Belgian years were the only good rule it's had🧵👇
First, it's important to note what state of things existed in what became the Belgian Congo before King Leopold II became its ruler
That tale is best told by Henry Stanley in his book, How I Found Livingstone, his tale of searching for Dr. Livingstone in the heart of Darkness
In it, he describes hell on a grand scale. Arab slavers from Zanzibar pillaged the anarchic territory, taking gangs of fettered slaves back with them to be castrated and sold to the Arab slave market
The interior, when not being raided by Arabs, was in a state of horrid chaos. Random violence, cannibals, the ever-present threat of famine, and all the rest we think of when we think of pre-colonial Africa is what life was like in the Congo. Rotting vegetation, insect-infested huts, farms barely maintaining subsistence, and tribes raiding each other and explorers were the basic aspects of life in the pre-Belgian world
In short, life before the Belgians was like life in the Stone Age: nasty, brutish, and short, with the only law being the law of the jungle
Stanley and Livingstone did much to expose this state of things, and it was the greedy, exploitative traders who followed in their wake, before Leopold and the Belgians, that are recorded by Conrad in his The Heart of Darkness
It was about a decade and a half later that, during the Berlin Conference, King Leopold II was granted control of the area now knows as the Democratic Republic of the Congo
He controlled it through the Congo Free State, a private attempt he founded and fully owned, with the goal of colonizing and bring order to the anarchic territory
To do so, he started sending to the state Belgian officers and administrators. They, along with a bevy of monks, nuns, and traders, were the ones who set out to turn the anarchic Congo into a well-administered area that turned from animist paganism to Christianity while becoming prosperous and stable
The military/police arm of that rule was the Force Publique, which was mainly officered by Belgians but otherwise consisted of natives allied with the Congo Free State. They protected the nuns, protected the traders, kept out the Arab slavers from Zanzibar, and generally tried to first impose and then maintain order
South Africa is back in the news because of its anarcho-tyranny and Mugabe-style land expropriation
Missed is that this is Mandela's vision
The ANC's "National Democratic Revolution" concept—using liberalism to establish communism—is going exactly as he planned & hoped for🧵👇
"National Democratic Revolution" (NDR), is originally a Soviet concept that was adopted and built upon by the South African communists, particularly the ruling ANC regime, to suit their unique situation and goal
Their goal, as one might expect of an anti-colonial communist group, is race communism of the sort seen in Zimbabwe under Mugabe
Their unique situation, however, was that they had the world's sympathy and were expected to create the "Rainbow Nation" rather than just another nominally democratic hellhole
Hence, the NDR concept. By slowly boiling the frog, they could use the slogans and methods of liberalism to first establish socialism, and then, from ther,e move to communism
It's that final step we're seeing now, and they might not have boiled the frog slowly enough, as they're getting more resistance than was expected
Still, it's gotten them this far, so it's worth reviewing
The American left is embracing race communism of the sort that destroyed South Africa + Rhodesia
Here, e.g., the Chicago mayor admits to anti-white racism in permitting: “Every dime [blacks] were robbed of, I’ll make sure is returned two- or threefold”
Here's what's coming🧵👇
Mayor Johnson's spewed absurdities are, essentially, the same inane nonsense the African communists pushed before destroying their countries
In South Africa, Mandela's ANC has long insisted that the white farmers "stole" the land from blacks, and thus it needs to be "returned" to them
Much the same was true of Mugabe's thuggery in Zimbabwe, where he and his cronies insisted that "land reform" (farmland expropriation) was a necessity because the white farmers had "stolen" the land when they founded Rhodesia
In every case, it was absurd: the supposed "thieves" built everything that existed, they didn't steal it
South Africa is a great example. When the progenitors of the Afrikaners arrived in 1654, they found a nearly uninhabited land, and those few Khoisan there were roving pastoralists who had settled nothing. The Afrikaners then built South Africa from the ground up, turning an untamed wilderness into a thriving colony with hugely successful farms. They gradually marched to the north and west, settling the land as they went and eventually finding the Xhosa and Zulu, both of whom arrived in what's now South Africa from the north well after the Afrikaners did. Once again, it was the Afrikaners who built civilization, with their labor and hands, in that mostly untamed land. Over the mid-19th to mid-20th century, Anglo settlers and capital poured in as well, helping build civilization where none had formerly existed in South Africa
Rhodesia was much the same thing. The British South Africa Company did, admittedly, find the Matabele and Shona in what became Rhodesia when settling the territory began. But agriculture was limited. No cities, roads, railroads, or the like existed. Populations were limited and sparse. Anglos then poured in and settled it, turning veldt into farms, building cities on open land, and gradually raising civilization on land where little formerly existed. Further, what land the BSAC obtained, the land on which civilization was built, was bought from the Matabele, not "stolen."
Well, here's what prominent SA politicians say: "We will k*ll white women, we will k*ll white children, and we will even k*ll your pets"
Importantly, this violence is part of Mandela's legacy and happened because of American policy 🧵👇
This should be quite clear as the Afrikaner refugee situation heats up
For example, an ANC (Mandela's party, long aided by the Soviets) hack calling himself "Staling" released this statement about Trump's refugee program and demanded the Afrikaners stay so that they can face "accountability" for "historic privilege"
What does "accountablity" mean in this situation?
It means he wants them to be slain in some of the sickest, most horrific ways imaginable
This is what the farm murders and home invasions across South Africa are: aided by the government (the military, for example, provides them with signal jammers), thugs r*pe, m*rder, and k!ll Boers in their homes
The farm attacks are almost always black on white, almost always involve sexual assault, and frequently involve murder. The same is true of home invasions in urban zones, what few are left in the years after Mandela
