A resolution of support for those organizing against the DNC
from the Twin Cities’ RNC Welcoming Committee
Many people believe that we should protest the RNC because the Republican Party is the party of warmongers and CEOs. But as we prepare our resistance, we do so against all government. We would resist just the same if the Democrats were planning to use our city to scheme and push their agenda. As anarchists and anti-authoritarians, we recognize that representative politics, and therefore all politicians, undermine the ability of people to organize their own lives. This is true whether they are outright fascist, or if they preach a “liberation” that only they can provide. The false opposition that the Democrats espouse against war, poverty, environmental destruction and corporate domination- the realities of capitalism- only makes them more dangerous than the Republicans. Politicians talk of hopes and dreams, using our desires for a better world as a means to control and pacify us. We see through them all- there is nothing that they can give us that they haven't already taken away. So as we make plans to show the Republicans just how welcome they are in Minnesota, we act in solidarity with those doing the same to the Democrats in Denver, for no politician can give us our freedom.
