YouTube Description
as posted by the channelNew Discourses Bullets, Ep. 41
A key tactic in the Woke Marxist activism toolbox is an unconventional warfare technique known as "midlevel violence," or, in other words, strategic provocation. In this strategy, agitators will engage in behavior that, if accepted, moves one of their massline agendas along or that, if resisted, provokes a reaction that can be framed as an unjust overreaction ("wound collecting" or "crybullying"). They are masters at this. In fact, it's Antifa's breadandbutter tactic, and its goal is always to put its target into a dilemma of giving in and demoralizing () themselves or reacting and thus being portrayed as having overreacted (). Join host James Lindsay in this episode of New Discourses Bullets as he explains how this malicious tactic works.
