As Expected, Trantifa Celebrates; UPDATE: Another Trans Shooting

meme

DEI gave us BLM and the 2020 riots. 

Alphabet ideology and the glorification of Antifa are giving us assassinations.

After the tragic death of George Floyd, the left and Antifa went on what amounted to a revenge spree. After October 7th, the left has been engaged in antisemitic pogroms and assassinations of Jews who work for Israel. And in the wake of increasing claims of oppression by Alphabet activists, we are seeing a wave of mass murder attacks by people who identify as transgender.

What unites all this is the cult of victimhood that has become the dominant narrative of the left. False claims of "genocide," "oppression," a delusional sense of being under attack, and a desire for revenge have come to dominate leftist discourse. 

No doubt you have noticed that the groups most attached to the victimhood narrative are deeply invested in committing violence in the name of vengeance. It is hardly limited to the alphabet community--in fact, you have likely noticed the merging of the Hamas/BLM/Antifa/Alphabet movement to the extent that we now have absurdities like "Queers for Palestine."

It is the narrative of victimhood that unites them, and the desire for revenge that motivates them. In a sense, it all falls under the banner of "Queer" because "Queer" means rejection of and destruction of bourgeois society, which they all see as the ultimate evil. It falls under many names, such as "colonialist," but the concept is essentially identical. 

When Luigi Mangione assassinated an innocent man with a shot in the back, the left erupted in solidarity. Taylor Lorenz marveled at how moral he was, and hot to boot. When Audrey Hale shot up a Christian school, her supporters went to the Capitol and declared her to be a victim, along with the people she shot. 

As the country mourns the death of children who were gunned down while praying during Mass, Trantifa activists are celebrating the murders and calling for more.

The focus we are putting on the Trantifa movement is appropriate given the circumstances, but we have to remember it is just one tentacle in the larger Cthulu of left-wing hate groups unified by a desire for violence. 

The people attacking ICE facilities are basically the same, as are the Hamas-loving protesters and BLM-types. They are unified by an ideology based on Critical Theory and a shared sense of victimhood. And that victimhood narrative is a core part of leftist ideology. 

It is a mistake to focus on these groups as individual units, although they do have different stories they tell themselves about how and why they are victimized. They each have a reason in their minds to hate us, but all of them are united in focusing that hate on the larger society for similar reasons. In their minds, all victims are Queer in some way.

It may make little sense for Queer activists in the West to identify with Muslims who throw gay people off roofs, but it makes perfect sense to them because they believe that the root of all evil is Western culture and its oppressive nature. If only Western Liberalism were eliminated--accomplished through vengeance--utopia would arrive. 

It's all the same movement, and they are clear that they are coming for us. 

It's an ideology of hate claiming to be a social justice movement. The call for vengeance is based on that core ideology. Just as most black people aren't BLM, most people with gender dysphoria--at least the genuine kind people have suffered with in the past--aren't "Queer activists." 

But the Critical Theory crowd? They are out for blood, not peace, love, and understanding. 

UPDATE: Another trans shooter, with one victim this time.

Shakur was reportedly spray painting on a local bridge when the victim took a picture of him, which started an altercation. Shakur then allegedly shot the man during the incident.

Shakur was arrested at his home, which was covered in graffiti such as "BLM, Free Palestine, and Defund the Police."

Why does this keep happening???
