"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

After a week of grasping at straws, the feds found the PERFECT target for a bipartisan, anti-leftist witch hunt: Ermiya Fanaeian (nypost.com)

The FBI is currently investigating Ermiya Fanaeian for “possible ties” to Tyler Robinson “as the FBI has widened its probe to include a potential ‘extended network’ that could have aided Robinson”.

Ermiya Fanaeian is the founder of Armed Queers SLC (a pro-gun LGBTQ group in Salt Lake City). She’s trans. She’s a revolutionary leftist who openly opposes liberalism. She’s pro-gun, and she recognizes the inevitability of violence amid revolutionary struggle. She’s a “political organizer with ties to communist politics”. Her parents are Iranian immigrants.

In other words, she’s based as fuck, she’s a comrade, and she’s someone conservatives and liberals would both be glad to see persecuted.

If you ask me, I’d say its important that we all pay very close attention to Ermiya Fanaeian and this story as it unfolds.

Call me crazy, but I think the feds are going to make an example out of her, and I think they’re going to use her to ‘test the waters’ and gague whether or not the general public has been adequately primed to accept a significant escalation of anti-leftist persecution under the pretense of “combating left-wing terrorism”.

(Just for fun, type “anti-leftist persecution” into google and see what comes up)

I can’t shake the feeling that American leftists have some seriously bad shit coming our way, and I can’t shake the feeling that we aren’t ready for it.

Oh there is no doubt they are grasping at straws but what they do to her will be a good signpost of how far they are willing to go.
