      Guns, mostly.

      What makes you think that the weapon manufacturers would sell anarchists useful weapons if you’re against them?

          And the FBI is renowned for imprisoning traitors. So talking about this on the open internet is likely a dumbass move if you’re actually serious.

          Which is why I’m calling your bluff. If you’re serious about this, you wouldn’t have told me about it.

              Correct me if I’m wrong, but you were just now threatening to sabotage weapon shipments to Israel, were you not?

              Or were you just bluffing? But yes, opposing the foreign policy goals of our country through the use of sabotage is a traitorous act and calling the cops on this would be the appropriate thing to do.

              As I said. I know you’re bluffing. I’m just seeing how far you’ve thought about this issue. And as expected, you haven’t thought it through at all.

                  Calm down. I’m not filing anything. I’m simply pointing out that you’re a dumbass if you talk like that in public. So its an easy bluff for me to call.

                  The simple matter is, even just talking about plans to sabotage stuff on a detailed level is literally the crime of conspiracy and 100% in the perview of FBI investigations. (IE: Much like how Donald Trump “only” talked about how they were going to steal votes on Jan 6th, that’s enough for the FBI to have nabbed him on conspiracy).

                  And that’s the nature of our world. I have confidence in my worldview, because that’s actually how the world works. Yours is just kinda… an empty threat that’s full of pretty straightforward misunderstandings.


                  Like I said: guns. Violence. The use of force. I don’t really have much confidence in anarchists actually accomplishing much in our setting or political system (or the political system of Israel for that matter). But in contrast, I have confidence in the current powers that be and their ability to use force. Especially with regards to matters of say… criminal conspiracy of sabotage.

                  And anarchists otherwise aren’t a very powerful political group or in the mainstream, so yeah… a lot of yelling at clouds.

                    ianal, but i’m pretty sure crimes require means and opportunity and motive (unless it’s statutory). so, no, it’s not “only” talking.

                    you’re not filing anything because you know only the most intellectually dishonest reading of my comments can be interpreted as a crime, and you don’t want to go to jail for lying to the feds.

                    i’m aware, but i can’t in good conscience choose to support oppression and genocide, so it’s the only political system i can support.
