Shine said:Jesus. they are well organised (these maoists!). Looks fucking amazing. Black bloc scares the hell outa me and maybe yes its day has passed (or not come yet)? Just ends up looking like thuggery... message gets lost. Think some people if they saw something like that bowing protest might be a tiny bit more inclined to say what's their story... In combination with the direct resistance and other tactics of course. I'm all for all forms of protest and would never knock any1 for being black bloc - it's just not for me. And blah blah this been said before. Saw the indymedia article too tnx.
btw la la - was there a huge media hype up about evil disruptors coming to disrupt your world? it's to the people that listen to and believe that stuff that i mean black bloc has no power to impact.
La La said:it takes a helluva lot more determination to do this for the distance they did it than fighting with cops
weeler said:True, but south koreans are far more obsessed with fighting cops than most of the blackblocs you'll ever see. I don't understand why people are comparing the two, it's about a diversity of tactics.
La La said:the hype was always about the korean farmers; we never expected m/any anarchist organisations to come over if thats what you mean.
honestly today's 3 step one bow was increcibly moving; bystanders had tears in their eyes an all. had to be there to really understand i guess. these people's livelihoods are in the balance in the impregnable Convention Centre - it's pretty full on.
i have to say that witnessing this has changed my views on black bloc a bit - it's been nice to see the way they voice their issues with the talks.![]()
haha yeah the media will always fearmonger with the words evil and stuff.Shine said:yeah - but disruptors are disruptors as far as most of the masses are concerned - not knowing or caring about the difference between anarchists and maoists (now- i could be way off - i dunno what hong kong thinks or knows!). Sorry weeler was just putting in my 2 cents about black bloc cos someone else brought it up... shuda quoted... and the other stuff cos i read on indymedia about hong kong and he was comparing the build up there to the build up here for maydays here - as i say - eeevil disruptors all...
Anyway - good stuff la la - thankyew bye bye
weeler said:was watching it on euronews, nice to get half the "black bloc" eejits to be that disciplined.
