"National and racial chauvinism is a vestige of the misanthropic customs characteristic of the period of cannibalism. Anti-semitism, as an extreme form of racial chauvinism, is the most dangerous vestige of cannibalism.
Anti-semitism is of advantage to the exploiters as a lightning conductor that deflects the blows aimed by the working people at capitalism. Anti-semitism is dangerous for the working people as being a false path that leads them off the right road and lands them in the jungle. Hence Communists, as consistent internationalists, cannot but be irreconcilable, sworn enemies of anti-semitism.
In the U.S.S.R. anti-semitism is punishable with the utmost severity of the law as a phenomenon deeply hostile to the Soviet system. Under U.S.S.R. law active anti-semites are liable to the death penalty."
At the time of his death Stalin was in the process of carrying out the doctor's plot which had the goal of moving all the Jews in the USSR to Siberia and that used anti semitic canards to justify it. His writings in 1931 might say that but in practice, the story was much different.
I didn't see reference to this, but update on RiotRibs, they have officially shut down...again. I think? I guess the prior drama wasn't an official shutdown, and they are now officially shutting down.
Some interesting takeaways from both this release and a previous article is that the people running it were either local homeless OR out of state agitators, at least one of which was involved in the Minneapolis riots.
The other is the amount of money raised, which was over $330,000. They proceeded to "redistribute" these funds to a myriad of local shitstirrers: http://archive.md/J6gsi
Except only kind of...this comes out to $111000, and based on the spreadsheet they provide "for transparency" (and yes I did download a local copy as of this afternoon and all available receipt pictures) they only had about $51000 in other expenses: View attachment 1482492
Some notes:
-First off the "EBT reimbursement" line item. I'm 99% sure that giving someone cash for goods purchased on EBT is EBT fraud, so that's fun. It's also a small amount, and you'll noticed they only did it ONCE, implying they knew it was a bad idea.
-Other includes a $30k van purchase
-Note the amounts that came in from both Venmo and Cashapp. Everything else pales in comparison and it is a testament to how convenience breeds just sending randoms money.
-If you peruse the "transactions" tab of spreadsheet you may notice that receipts stopped being uploaded for expenses. IMO something spooked them and they decided that too much transparency is bad opsec.
-There's still a metric assload of money (roughy $169,263) in that account which I've as yet seen no indication of what's happening with it.
These are not tax deductible donations as far as I can tell, which means they are someone, or some organization's, income. I have to wonder how that shit is going to get filed this coming year.
All of this is burying the lede though, because they aren't ACTUALLY shutting down, they are just rebranding. This antifa front organization is officially interstate, as you probably noticed there is mention of "RevRibs" or "Revolution Ribs" which is a van or food truck these guys are using to cross state lines in support of other "protests".
"if you give us too much money we'll shut down donations, just ribs and gas, this is a NEW INDEPENDENT effort"
The emphasis is mine but it's interesting they are going out of their way to distance themselves in the statements regarding money from RiotRibs.
Scroll down a bit and you'll see them mention "actions south of Redding [CA]" and then towards the top pictures from today of them in SF setting up for a demonstration against a Whole Foods of all places (apparently Whole Foods is telling employees not to wear BLM attire, god forbid).
Allow me to suggest that if anyone just happens to be in area and just happens to get pictures of their van(s) or them it might be funny given how tight lipped they are about their actual identities.
Anyway, that's the update on them so far, this post has already gone too long.
My favorite thing about this is seeing the statement "anarcho-communism inevitably leads to a strong man taking over" play out in microcosm. The collective can't even keep a tent serving salmonella from being taken over, what hope does a city or country have?
I remain convinced that most mutual aid networks are deeply corrupt. There is a reason that real charities have oversight and control, and that is because people are shitty and will take some off the top unless you watch them like hawks. Bureaucracy can be a bitch, but sometimes it is better that the alternative.
And they were willing to spend 30k for a van but not a couple hundred for cases of food warmers so they can keep their food at safe temp? They truly are fucking retarded.
Of course Kate Brown is weaselling. She's a shitty person, who shouldn't have been governor in the first place, and is trying to dodge a voter recall.
Fuck that bitch and her predecessor. Both of them set the stage for this bullshit, and I hope the mob searches the biome in Minecraft, finds her house, and in Minecraft burns it down.
I may be misunderstanding your post, however you seem to be covering a different scenario than occurred here.
In this the receipt was from a grocery store where someone used EBT to buy supplies for RiotRibs, and then RiotRibs "reimbursed" them for less than the cost of what they bought. Nobody actually paid RiotRibs for any services as far as I can tell. Just "donations". View attachment 1482674
It's generally illegal to sell food stamps. Selling them for less than what they're worth is a habit mainly associated with drug purchasers and dealers.
There is a reason that real charities have oversight and control, and that is because people are shitty and will take some off the top unless you watch them like hawks.
also because they are legally obliged to have it, cause without oversight and bureaucracy it would be really fucking easy to sneak a ton of money laundering in there
>Atlanta Black Star
Lmao. The one thing I remember them for is some article claiming Hannibal Barca as an Afrikan Kang who outwitted the Roman white devils.
So scrolling on the Nexus I saw this mod View attachment 1482532
and I wonder how hard could it be to mod all the Raiders into wearing Black Bloc/BLM outfits by default so Liberty Prime can stomp them to death.

I know that's your friend and all but literally everything they were saying and everyone who believes that sortof bullshit word salad is the reason why I now utterly despise the LGBTWTFOMGBBQPEEEEEEDO movement.
Her and Apollodown. In fact I was expecting it to be Apollo first (though Elianora is completely unsurprising) since this is the guy who briefly locked all his mods in an Orange Man Bad fueled tantrum in November 2016.

The American Civil Liberties Union of Oregon on Wednesday filed a lawsuit against the Portland Police Bureau, challenging its livestreaming of protests.
The ACLU contends the bureau’s practice of filming and broadcasting protesters violates state law that prohibits police from collecting or maintaining information about the political, religious or social views, associations or activities of people who are not suspected of criminal activity.
The police livestream zooms in on individual faces, making protesters vulnerable to face surveillance technology, the civil rights agency contends.
The livestream has been one of dozens of livestreams of nightly demonstrations in Portland. The Police Bureau put a link to its livestream on its Twitter feed three times this month.
“Unlawful police surveillance threatens our First Amendment rights,” said Jann Carson, interim executive director of the ACLU of Oregon. “The Portland Police Bureau has no constitutional reason to train its video cameras on demonstrators — or to broadcast those images publicly on the internet, where federal agents and others can analyze them.”
City Attorney Tracy Reeve said she couldn’t comment on the pending litigation.
Federal officers who have been stationed in an incident command center in the Mark O. Hatfield United States Courthouse have been monitoring livestream footage shared on social media of the demonstrations. Portland police and federal officers have made arrests after reviewing video footage to identify people accused of committing violence or property damage.
The ACLU of Oregon filed its lawsuit in Multnomah County Circuit Court, the latest legal action stemming from the nightly demonstrations and officers’ use of force.
The suit also is on behalf of an unidentified protester who was caught on the police streaming footage while demonstrating outside the police union office in North Portland on July 13, according to the suit.
“Many of the other protesters whose likenesses and voices have appeared on PPB’s videos also want not to be recorded. Several have shouted as much at PPB’s cameraperson; others have shone bright lights at its camera in attempts to obscure the camera’s view of the crowds; still others have used squeakers to obscure PPB’s audio recording,” the suit said.
This was a statement delivered by the Police Chief of Richmond, VA on May 31st, after rioters had intentionally set fire to a home with a child inside of it. The rioters used vehicles to block firefighters from reaching the home, although they didn't succeed and the family managed to make it out alive. I tend to have a pretty good memory but I have no fucking recollection of this story at all.
Apparently major news sources hardly even covered this story, it's all local news, and even then just barely, with Snopes shoved way up to the top of the list, trying to do its usual snake-tongued horseshit and calling it "unproven." It's actually very creepy that something like this could happen and every single outlet just more or less ignores the story and spends the next two months calling them peaceful protests.
The Tranny got vanned yesterday is now 25k richer! For a bunch of people that complain they have no money and can't even afford rent, the far left has a ton of money to throw to every random piece of shit cause they see.
What happened to these fucks being part of the "working class"? These are the same people who complain about rent. I'm genuinely upset that these fuckers dumped $25,000 onto someone just for being arrested. There are people all across the country starving, homeless, freezing to death but because this one happened to be committing federal crime, she's worthy of all of these donations. Don't get me wrong, I was homeless myself once. It's not glamorous and the kindness of strangers is always a plus for us in the community, but this is beyond ridiculous.
I'm betting this bitch will use all of this money on drugs instead of giving back to her community.
Possible major escalation: There was a train fire in Tempe, Arizona. Anonymous randoms are accusing Antifa and BLM, which supposedly had a rally nearby two days ago. Looking for more, but not seeing anything confirming one way or the other; probably still under investigation.
