Public DAs (which is a contentious term in its own right) aren& #39;t really being appreciated for what they illustrate. True, they get folx out there, shit get smashed, maybe the police respond with violence, people become radicalized, that& #39;s fine.
But aren& #39;t you frustrated?

Isn& #39;t the action itself somewhat performative?
What& #39;s your goal? Is visibility something that would aid your interests? Is it a liability?

Weren& #39;t you at one point upset with the Libs & their pointless marches to nowhere? Do you think you& #39;re functionally all that different when you stand around police precincts, doing nothing but waiting for your beatings?

You will become old, before that feeling does.

Cultivating autonomy & self determination is what defines anarchist praxis.
There& #39;s no need for a flyer to tell you what to do.
There is targets everywhere. They are vulnerable.
All you need to do
Is strike.
