I don't know where you were in the last two weeks but you absolutely don't have to torch cop cars in order to get thrown in jails.
Yeah but you'll probably get out of jail quicker if you get arrested for protesting rather than domestic terrorism. Also the pool of people willing to do domestic terrorism is way smaller than the pool of people willing to attend a march or encampment so you're gonna burn through that population a lot quicker.
You're acting as if it would become a serious threat the state wouldn't just make it "domestic terrorism" to participate even peaceful pro-palestine rallies.
If things got to that point I'd assume there'd be a left movement well organized enough to mount some kind of coordinated armed struggle, at which point I think burning cop cars would be a more viable tactic. It's the fact this was some isolated rando doing this that I take issue with, not the action itself.
Just going by the historical examples the state will preemptively do it. Hope i will be wrong.
You can't type out a comment and put "disengage" at the end. You either just say "disengage" and leave it or you say your peace and leave the conversation open.
