There are a few hard core LARPers in the left, but most don't think the average normie Trump voter is the enemy. Resist capitalism and the state by any means necessary but don't fetishise violence for violence sake. It's not about getting rid of 'bad people', but about destroying the system which makes oppression possible. I believe most people can be persuaded by a positive vision of the future.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around the use of violence against Trump supporters...
None, if it doesn't do any of that. The violent protest only brought up about one good meme, and a bunch of liberals hating us. It should more organized, or not even done, IMO. Also, dialectics might play into it a little, but then again, I don't think Americans are running out of food yet.
No, bet the former makes less sense than the latter, since the Republicans seems to be cozying up more in rhetoric at least to nationalism, even though they are still continuing more of the neoliberal policies that's been fucking everything up so far. If anything, it just shows that trump is a conman, although he isn't the main problem, the system is.
Nothing, since I'm no in America, and no one really pays attention to politics except me.
This.
This as well.
I forgot to add.
What would be the purpose of inciting violence rather than striking? If the amount of people who showed up to protest just didn't show up to work and boycotted a bunch of shit I think that would have a very significant influence instead. That's my take, but why the resort to violence?
This is why people hate anarkids, they'd rather rebel than do anything meaningful.
I'm Australian user, the most you run into here is the occasional Holla Forums shitposter who loves to yell memes and talk about how great trump is, but other than that nobody gives a shit about him.
Ignore these answers, /leftypol is made up primarily of edgy liberal armchair LARPers who dont represent the views of most radical leftists

Protests and violence perpetrated against proles are simply just another case of labour under capitalism.
They do it for the grades or money, or if they are more stupid, for the fame or thrills.
If anything you should be happier there are more cell phones around to photo and video their ugly obedient faces.
I'm Burgerstani so everything outside of America confuses me :^)
But seriously, with all due respect, I was not expecting sensible answers from an Ancom. I lurk Holla Forums as well, and every time an Ancom tries to argue they go on a full meltdown because everyone assumes they just want to kill everybody they dislike. Is it safe to assume Anarkids are a vocal minority?
No board is compromised of one person
There is no real purpose; pointless activism just makes anarkids feel important.
To be honest I couldn't say, I fucking hope they are but it's hard to gauge when they're so intent on being as vocal as possible even if there's no reason behind it
