I believe this is turning into what Trump wanted to occur during the George Floyd protests.

The instigators breaking shit were trying to start a riot to give him pretext to federalize the National Guard.

Only, nobody bought into it.

Instead, this time, he's taking smaller protests and escalating them by using military intimidation, which, as the regime hoped, infuriated large swaths of Americans. Once these continue to grow, instigators will become present. It takes one, hidden somewhere, to shoot an agent or guardsman, and shit flys off the walls.

Unfortunately, the path forward is bleak. Protests must continue. And they must grow. People dying is out of the question at this point.

The regime is betting that a few instances of massacres will give him enough power to quell 358,000,000 Americans into accepting a totalitarian regime. Every dictator in modern history has done this in one way, shape, or form.

I keep saying this but it falls on deaf ears. A resistance must not resist in a theater of the Regime's choosing. It won't work.

Blue states have a powerful weapon at their disposal. They need not instruct citizens to withold federal taxes. They need to instruct employers and self employed to cease all federal witholding. If they fail to do so, cut off the resources an employer needs. When tax season comes around, how many Americans will willingly pay the 12-35% of their income they now owe? None. The federal government now has lost significant portions of revenue. Americans won't work without pay. Not for long.

The time for the most powerful form of warfare has arrived. Economic warfare.
