I found the Facebook profile of this guy (“Peter Karasev”) who was just charged with bombing a power substation in San Jose. According to his profile, he is a software engineer with a PhD. And he’s from Moscow, Russia. (Follow along for screenshots from his profile). 1/ https://www.mercurynews.com/2023/03/03/authorities-man-bombed-pge-transformers-in-south-san-jose

This is definitely him, based on the photos. His profile says he is from Moscow and he has several photos with firearms and/or energy infrastructure in the background. His children (whom I’ve scribbled over in photos) have Russian names, and he occasionally uses Russian language in his posts. 2/

These are a few more pictures from the Facebook page of the Russian-born suspect in a bombing targeting the power grid in San Jose. As you can see, he frequently posts pictures of energy infrastructure, raising the question of whether he was scouting out these areas for a while. He also had an “inactive” meth lab in his home, apparently. 3/

The targeting of energy infrastructure is a tactic that has been used widely by Russia in Ukraine, so it’s not a huge stretch to imagine the same tactics being used here. These attacks had a devastating impact on civilians in Ukraine. 4/https://www.hrw.org/news/2022/12/06/ukraine-russian-attacks-energy-grid-threaten-civilians

In the US, attacks on the power grid have typically been associated with neo-Nazi accelerationists, who have explicitly advocated for this style of attack. Russia has been known to provide support for accelerationist movements in the West.The idea behind such attacks on the power grid is to cause massive power outages across large swaths of the country, leading to civil unrest — which extremists hope to exploit for the purpose of inciting a race war. 5/

An “accelerationist handbook” circulating on extremist Telegram channels last summer explicitly called for potential attackers to bypass mass shootings in favor of causing chaotic blackouts by attacking the power grid (a “sitting duck”). The power grid is seen as a soft target, & we haven’t put the necessary resources into hardening & modernizing our critical infrastructure to protect against such attacks.Attacking just 9 of our 55,000 substations could knock out power from coast to coast. 6/

@Ravencanada @rvawonk see what i mean? you should keep an open mind. when there is a lot of money preventing internal reform using low level domestic terrorism, you cannot afford to have anyone challenge the state funded "credible sources". both far right and far left do this and need each other to justify their own terrorism.

Do you have a source on that?Source?A source. I need a source.Sorry, I mean I need a source that explicitly states your argument. This is just tangential to the discussion.No, you can't make inferences and observations from the sources you've gathered. Any additional comments from you MUST be a subset of the information from the sources you've gathered.You can't make normative statements from empirical evidence.Do you have a degree in that field?A college degree? In that field?Then your arguments are invalid.No, it doesn't matter how close those data points are correlated. Correlation does not equal causation.Correlation does not equal causation.CORRELATION. DOES. NOT. EQUAL. CAUSATION.You still haven't provided me a valid source yet.Nope, still haven't.I just looked through all 308 pages of your user history, figures I'm debating a glormpf supporter.

@jeff @Ravencanada @rvawonk @DocScranton I see, I see. So let me unpack and tell me if I understood that one well. So you're saying that attacking grid ia fine because it's supposedly already been done by antifa ?To that assertion, for which you give absolutely no evidence, your only explanation is that the world media are clearly biased by liberal thinking, therefore not reporting on it. But now, as it is right wing extremists, it is being reported. It is funny, because I just read something super relevant to this conversation.Sorry for late edit :https://daringfireball.net/linked/2023/03/05/marshall-fox-new-archeologyThe story of the deep archeology of fox news.

@jeff @Ravencanada@mstdn.ca @rvawonk @DocScranton I don't want to argue with you. What I mean, and what others before me in this thread tried to say in a different way, is that when you build an argument you should back it up with facts and credible sources. These sources can be whatever you want, and people could disagree, and you should be ope to the possibility that you could be wrong. Opinions aren't equals. Some people have the knowledge and expertise that you don't on a specific matter, and I don't mean some infotainment journalist or some shady guy ranting on the microphone. I mean, people have always tended to just seek for others opinions and anecdotal facts to make fit with their ideological points of view. The difference today is that everyone can be heard, making these phenomenons of bubble thinking a lot more concerning.Most of the time though, looking at a problem from different perspectives and only then forming an opinion will lead you to a least biased one. Sticking to the facts, and not their interpretation is of the utmost importance. Having references for those facts is too. The rise of attacks on power grid (a well known military tactic btw) is a fact that can't be denied. The fact that most of the people in cause today for this problem is far right domestic terrorist groups is also undeniable. It fits their ideology and their objectives. I haven't heard about "antifa" (a term (ab)used as a gimmick by mass medias outside of it's true meaning btw) destroying power substations lately. It is possible that anti-fascist groups could do such a thing, but it's doesn't fit that much their ideology and/or agenda. Now there are some leftist groups that could align with these kind of objectives, as the idea of accelerationism is a post-marxist one, and its goal being the acceleration of the destruction of the capitalist system.But we're not in 70s Europe, and it seems very clear that the growing numbers of attacks on the power grid in the US is caused by some the neo-reactionary movements (NRx, dark enlightenment, neo-fascist,...). These guys just don't deny those facts.So you can support these guys and their movements, but you should VERY CAREFULLY look at what's the "philosophy" behind them. And please, stop making excuses for their actions.

@subrealz @rvawonk @DocScranton i do not support domestic terrorism but i do support those who try to expose those doing it, regardless of the ideology of the terrorist, these leftist revcom acceleration domestic terrorists use antifa to hide thier activities in a similar way that pedophile priests use the catholic church to hide. in both cases they are sheltered and shuffled about and no one is being fooled by it dude. the fact that there is now neonazis doing it as well and thus suddenly it is okay to blow it up is how both the revcom and white nationalist domestic terrorist cells recruit. we cannot afford to have selective reporting on this topic. i am okay with telling people about andy ngo's reporting to fascilitste that. you should know that antifa based plots fail and almost never work, the issue isnt that it's the sheer volume of low level domestic annoyance they perpetrate.your support on this endeavor is not required as the accuracy of the reality on the ground is independent of it. if you oppose the process of separating the violent bad actors out of these "peaceful" groups i cannot see you as a good faith actor.

@jeff @rvawonk Did you know your answer is very derogatory? And it’s whataboutism. Right or left, extremists are extremists. But your original tweet is based on nothing. It’s just pure spreading hate. And for the record: Musk, twitter and trolls are far-right. https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-64804007

@rvawonk are we looking at Russian covert ops here? Or does he just like blowing up energy infrastructure, the way a firebug likes setting fires?

@ravenonthill @rvawonk At this point with Russian State Media rebroadcasting people like #TuckerCarlson and #RandPaul their covert operations to cause civil unrest in the U.S. is pretty much overt.I hate that our media describes our domestic terrorists attacking our energy grid as being on the far-right instead of coming right out and acknowledging that they're Republicans.

@GreenFire @ravenonthill @rvawonk I hate the term domestic terrorists, a terrorist is a terrorist. The word domestic softens it for the Ruscists. I've also decided to nix the word Fascists for Ruscists since Russia has been the Epicenter of Authoritarianism for centuries. There is no Hitler or Mussolini without Stalin. No Trump without Putin.
