Yeah, this is why I think this would likely have happened under Biden or Harris too. This is us nearing an inflection point in US hegemony. The robber barons won’t go down without a fight.

It was Crassus (the third wheel of the first triumvirate) that may have been killed by molten gold. Cicero was killed on the orders of Mark Antony, 21 months after the assassination of Julius Caesar. His head and hands were nailed to the senate doors.

Which is instructive and ironic that they choose Loyalists. Ulster is a mature settler colonial project where their intention was to supplant the indigenous population. That is what these far right twats fear most happening to them. The fact that it is not the essence of the act but that the subject of the act potentially being themselves that defines the act as evil in their eyes reveals their untrustworthy shallow parasitic self interest.

In northern ireland, they’d paint the kerb stones red, white and blue as well as putting up the flags and bunting in areas where there was a working class protestant majority. They couldn’t enact pogroms like they did in the 1920’s with impunity so this slowly strangling intimidation became the vogue for the capture of territory and constant enforcement of sectarianism on the entirety of both communities. As a catholic growing up there, those areas did not feel like public space but pits of self harming fear and rage.
