the governor of minnesota sent in the national guard. it is kind of irrelevant who was the governor at the time. there isnt a human alive who would have even had the option of doing something different, because the Seat of Power Itself forced his hand
This guy, Soghomon Tehlirian, shot and killed Armenian genocide mastermind Talat Pasha in the streets of Berlin, went on trial and was basically found not guilty by reason of “he had it coming.” The New York Times covered it with the headline “THEY SIMPLY HAD TO LET HIM GO.”

False accusations are far and few between, and the nebulous realm of shadow-wars and shadow-boxing are more effective. Callouts of rape are treated as carceral in some lefty spaces, for Hashem's sake.
So why not believe victims? KYLR. This article was an amazing read!
People online will literally stone each other over CRINGE, accusations of cringe, or passive-aggressive "Oh you hang with them? Oh, wow...", far more easily and aggressively than any accusation of Rape online.
Calling someone a poseur is a more stinging barb than racist in many spaces online.
A common knee-jerk reaction to slogans like Kill Your Local Rapist is "should we believe every accusation?? And follow with lethal force???". Obviously not. I've never had the language to say why not, and it's that there are FAR MORE EFFECTIVE means of calling-out than rape.
Rape culture - I know this term is radioactive, the "background radiation of rape in our society" whatever - is so pervasive that callouts tend to be much more about social capital (and power dynamics) rather than trying to do the right thing.
Long but ultimately rewarding article on Kill Your Local Rapist, and Militant Anarcha-feminism by William. Highly recommend, but here's one of my favorite takeaways.
It's FAR easier to box someone out of a community than a callout of rape.
My comprehensive piece on "Kill Your Local Rapist" is now live.
I held off writing for two years of awful discourse because I didn't want to take credit or central stage. Anything good in this essay should be read as a collective effort. *Every* CW:

1/ I had a friend who grew up in rural Oklahoma in a fundamentalist Christian Evangelical family, and was raised to believe a lot of awful things.
Then he went into the army (9/11 was like Woodstock for these people), and saw some combat overseas, and it blew away his fundamentalist programming.

let us pursue a world where all can be unapologetic in their queerness.
we must acknowledge & embody the truth that queer liberation must include the end of white supremacy, colonialism, & capitalism — in all their insidious & pervasive guises.

Finished The No State Solution by Dr. Boyarin last night and feel its message - it's ethos, it's dream - so powerfully written upon my heart I'll need to reread this book several more times.
One of the first reviews I found online was a r/Jewish thread saying they should send him to Gaza
