    I love how the article seems to equate “failure of the state” with police running out of ammo and not ending the violence quickly enough. Not the decades of policies that led to thousands of people feeling like they need to destroy infrastructure.

      The government is openly blaming “the radical left” when it’s clearly a much broader protest by now.

      Not sure leftists are the ones breaking into tobacconists, stealing cigarettes and selling them on the street outside. That’s a little bit too enterprising no? lol
