    I would call it neither nonviolent nor anarchist. The protests were partially funded & organized by the US spook-industrial complex, including USAID, and NATO bombed the city of Belgrade and other civilian targets for 78 straight days, a war crime. The International Center on Nonviolent Conflict is a US security state regime change color revolution cut-out.

      This is some great feedback. I got a hunch something was off about this video, but I posted it anyway. At least now I learned something.

        None of this is to defend of Milošević’s corruption, neoliberal “reforms,” or other very real crimes, but Western propaganda has lain more blame on the Serbs than is warranted while whitewashing its own crimes.

          Sure, I think the Chomsky article you cited clears things up.

Are you an Anarchist? The answer might surprise you!

Rules: 0. Post content that is thoughtful and relevant to social liberation from an anarchist, autonomous, antifascist perspective.

  1. Be respectful
  2. Don’t be a nazi
  3. Argue about the point and not the person
  4. This is not the place to debate the merits of anarchism itself. While discussion is encouraged, getting in your “epic dunks on the anarkiddies” is not. As a result of the instance’s poor moderation policies and hostility toward anarchists by default, lemmygrad users are encouraged not to post here, though not explicitly disallowed if they aren’t just looking to start a fight.
