The Ghorman massacre IS just like Maidan in that a sniper attack perpetrated by the empire is used to spark the fighting off. The origin of the shooting that occurred during the maidan protests is disputed and I personally believe the fascists carried it out, not the police. The protests up to that moment were not revolutionary, they were a typical liberal protest. The masses and number of people were being kept there for days using free food and concerts/music stages. It was clear that things weren't going to escalate so they carried out the shooting to turn the tone of things.
Liberals fail to recognise this was part of a planned coup perpetrated by the US and that the protesters were a cover for carrying out their plans, much like every colour revolution isn't really a "revolution" but simply a liberal protest event used as cover for a coup occurring in the background, which then forms the basis of the narrative story told about what happened in media after the event.
It’s also a near universal event in revolutions that a protest turns bloody by unknown hands shooting off
Correct, my issue is with the understanding of snipers directed by Putin to kill Ukrainians, rather than the other way around
Yeah that shit makes absolutely no sense. There are two possible scenarios, cops doing it without orders to protestors they're sympathetic to, or the fascists did it to escalate. The most likely scenario is that the fascists did it. They benefited most from it.
There was no unrest until this event, just a bunch of people libbing in the square and refusing to leave. There was no reason for the state to shoot anyone.
