The Republican Office of New Mexico’s headquarters in Albuquerque was intentionally set on fire in an act of arson.

If you know something about how this happened, no you don’t.

    Finally, some uplifting news. But knowing Republicans they probably did it themselves to play the victim. They were quoted saying “we will not be silenced”. Lady you won’t even shut the fuck up to hear what people think of you. There’s no bigger hint we can give. These people don’t care about protests we need action.

      Surely they would never do such a thing! What’s next? you’re going to say that people of color DIDN’T do this?

      Yep, these vibes for sure. That’s a fucking nice stencil they got there.

        Spray painting Biden 2020 and BLM with an Anarcy symbol gives it away that this indeed was self started.

          Not only that - who tries to be so neat with an Anarchy symbol? No one who has ever drawn one before.

          The stencil in OP is giving me similar vibes, but WTH do I know?

          “Sir, when you hear the shots, reach up to your ear and squeeze the little packet so the liquid smears on your ear.”

          “Like this?”

          “Please don’t eat it, sir.”

      You guys have to figure out if you think setting fire to your political opponents’ headquarters is a good thing or not. If it helps you, then why care if it’s a false flag operation?

      “The Republicans are trying to paint us as supporting vandalism and arson! Glad to see their stuff get damaged, though.”

        I support it. They can torch everything as far as I care.

        They’re not exactly playing fair with the working class, property destruction gets attention. Fuck em. The time for lovey-dovey liberal bullshit is long gone. Direct action gets the goods.

        They’re going to use every dirty trick they can against us, this is class warfare.

        They are the party that is in power and actively trying to destroy elections. In a state that generally votes VERY blue outside of a few rural counties.

        I’m not going to lose much sleep over watching some nazi buildings burn. But there is a very real argument that “New Mexico is dangerous” and collecting some insurance money is more valuable to the republicans at this point.

          That teeny little stencil looked so huge in their garage. This was done by people who have never done anything like this before. I doubt it was anyone outside of their circle.
