ABE GREENWALD: The Riot Coalition.
The term “omnicause” entered the lexicon only in 2023. But the blueprint for omnicause rioting was already operative 15 years ago. In fact, it was already supplanting realistic plans for left-leaning governance. As I wrote: “Without a viable leftist blueprint for actual political progress, you riot incoherently, collaboratively, and opportunistically. The abandoned orphans of the left are taking Britain by storm.”
It’s been a long storm, growing and intensifying all these years. Each new eruption contributes something to it, whether an additional grievance or a destructive tactic. And the new elements live on. In the years since 2011, the storm has been fueled by Black Lives Matter, Antifa, gender radicalism, anti-Israel mania, and jihad fandom. After the George Floyd summer, all rioters would forever wear masks. With the campus tentifada, they added keffiyehs, terrorist flags, and genocidal rhetoric. The riots in France will add something new, too. Perhaps American high schoolers will soon take to the streets pretending to demand better education, though I somehow doubt it.
Whether this will stop, or at least ebb, depends foremost on the education of Western leaders. Will they learn the “real cause” of all this violence and instability? They’ve had a decade and a half to figure it out. And the answer is this: Leftist governance has failed their countries while radical ideas have transformed their peoples into mobs.
Well, of course it failed –leftist governance is designed to fail:
It's not that hard. The left lets institutions and communities break down to a point of total degradation to prove why more government and non profits are the answer. The goal is to purposely not solve problems and make life and safety worse. See the entire defund the police… https://t.co/emoIbBFjVa

See the entire defund the police movement and homelessness nonprofits in California. Gavin Newsom promised to end homelessness and instead it ballooned on purpose.
This is why there was such enormous flip out over Trump renovating the reflecting pool or Spencer Pratt’s campaign.
Once people realize that things can be improved a lot of nonprofits and public union/money dries up. There is a reason why cities like Chicago, Los Angeles, Portland, Seattle, and now Denver all look the same because they are all run by the same people running the exact same scam.
Why would “Progressives” in Europe govern any differently?
