A long May Day statement by the East Bay Syndicalists Group
(California, USA)
“Since Trump was inaugurated and brought in billionaire oligarch Elon Musk and his hacker team to do a wrecking operation on many programs and agencies of the federal government, Trump and his team have moved in a rapid-fire way to disorient the opposition with a continuous stream of outrageous statements, illegal executive orders, firings of thousands of federal government workers and slashing of funding for services. The regime is pursuing a “flood the zone” strategy — shock-and-awe to distract, disorient and overwhelm the media and the opposition. Threats and intimidation tactics aim to paralyze with fear. This makes it ever more important to emphasize that organizing and collective action give us the power to fight back.”
