My archive and research skills I’ve gained came in handy. I wrote a lot of stuff last year about Cold War interventions by the CIA in Central America so finding this manual made me feel like I was back in school. — PolitiTweet.org

I just read a story in WaPo where an expert on civil wars was talked about why they think the US is on a dangerous path. They mentioned a CIA manual on the steps of insurgency. I found it (link below) here’s part of it- Reading it gave me chills and not in a good way. https://t.co/EZ6tUjfeTo — PolitiTweet.org

These mass shootings may appear unconnected but increasingly they have the same motivations. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

The final stage is guerrilla warfare and your classic methods of insurgent terrorism. Which it seems like we are increasingly getting closer to. Don’t take my word for it though read the CIA manual on insurgency yourself https://t.co/1rU0ULA0Bo https://t.co/rEul7entBl — PolitiTweet.org

And as I mention in part 1 of this thread all these mass shootings are being written off as “lone wolves” when they often have very similar white nationalist motives — PolitiTweet.org

There’s been an explosion in gun sales and many of these groups arming themselves even more heavily. Don’t know what I’m taking about just ask @ryandbusse (former gun industry exec about who’s really buy guns right now and why) — PolitiTweet.org

And because they’re not connecting the dots, the movement is allowed to grow until you have open insurgency, when you start to have a series of consistent attacks, and it becomes impossible to ignore” — PolitiTweet.org

“And the second stage, you start to have a few isolated attacks. And in the manual, it says, really the danger in this stage is that governments and citizens aren’t aware that this is happening. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

“The second stage is called the incipient conflict stage. And that’s when these groups begin to build a military arm. Usually a militia. And they’d start to obtain weapons, and they’d start to get training. And they’ll start to recruit from the ex-military or military and from — PolitiTweet.org

“ 1st is pre-insurgency. that’s when you start to have groups beginning to mobilize around a particular grievance. And it’s oftentimes just a handful of individuals who are just deeply unhappy about something. And they begin to articulate those grievances. [growing membership]” — PolitiTweet.org

The article then goes and breaks down the three stages as follows- — PolitiTweet.org

“The CIA also has a manual on insurgency. You can Google it and find it online. Most of it is not redacted. And it’s absolutely fascinating to read. It’s not a big manual. And it was written, I’m sure, to help the U.S. government identify very, very early stages of insurgency.” — PolitiTweet.org

I can not think of a better example of how bad gerrymandering has got in our country than the fact Congresswoman Greene genuinely thinks mass shootings and school shootings aren’t real but that Jewish space lasers are AND- despite all of that she’s going to get re-elected. — PolitiTweet.org

@ninaturner My god- what’s next outlawing private prisons that profit off the criminalization of major gaps in our social safety net like making it a felony to sleep outside in public? Careful there next you’ll tell me you think no American should be hungry. — PolitiTweet.org
