I’m a retired LEO with too many experiences with criminally destructive, hostile, violent, and hateful agitators. It’s amazing that the instigators appear to be the same no matter the cause at the moment: Black-Blok, Antifa, Occupy, BLM associated rioting, and now pro-Hamas appear to share an eerily similar core group of masked cosplay youth who are a small percent of persons present yet responsible for all of the non-peaceful and non-lawful destruction. Their true cause is never fully advertised; their true cause is anarchy and/or a complete overthrow of the status quo so that society can be molded into a socialist/communist “utopia” and - ultimately - an authoritarian system to ensure the outcomes they desire.
They are the proverbial useful idiots. The Nazis relied on the Brownshirts to take power and, as soon as they did, held the Night of the Long Knives because the once-useful malcontents had become a threat to their control. The fascists incorporated their Blackshirts into their official structure, pandering to their lack of principle.
Marxism is not an economic model but a system of social upheaval - once the status quo has been changed, future upheaval must be nipped in the bud. Schadenfreude is not justice, but it can be cathartic. They’ll eat their own, soon enough.
