Another very common tactic, which is illegal but it's done more often than not - with impunity - targeting physically strong folks, who are consistently on frontlines - to break their knees/arms/ankles/wrist - by stomping on joints repeatedly. This brutal tactic is focused on physically disabling people who usually volunteer as supplies sherpas & take higher personal risks of civilian resistance - like doing tree-sits or locking down on a bridge cantilever.

RCMP CIRG does training with #Israeli #IDF. The above are just some of the many harmful/violent/illegal tactics taught to our #Canadian corporate mercenaries. Many police departments across #Canada have also sent their staff to train with IDF. It's super corrupt & sick as fuck.

I recognize so many of the 'break activists' down tactics being deployed by ICE terrorists because they're eerily similar to my lived experiences with RCMP CIRG in Canada.

Some of those tactics are:

- smashing car windows & purposely damaging personal property
- unfettered use of tear gas/flash bangs
- violently assaulting legal observers & first aid volunteers
- threatening & assaulting journalists/media
- targeting physically weaker people first
- grabbing volunteers doing jail support & illegally detaining them
- threatening to rape & kill protestors
- pointing loaded firearms directly at unarmed citizens
- telling citizens they don't care about the law because they're in charge now
- using drones & helicopters to do surveillance & intimidation
- sleep deprivation raids
- telling citizens that we deserve getting beat up
- not arresting violent thugs from industry even when provided clear evidence of crimes committed (like how MAGA gets excused for crimes)

That's only a tiny fraction of similarities with ICE terrorists in USA & RCMP CIRG in Canada.

I know because I lived it.

We need mandatory bodycams for these muthafuckers.

...to half of #Ukraine, let alone all of it. That might not be what's required.

I've long held the view, though, that a scorched-earth strategy for #UKR would be sufficient as a minimal strategic goal for the #Russian #stateterrorists: the ethnic #Finnish #KievanRus 5) are, IMO, THE heartland of Russia (I'm a #Normanist, btw ;)). The #Ukrainian population was seen as of the same blood, as brothers,...
