Anarchism is a social movement that seeks liberation from oppressive systems of control including but not limited to the state, capitalism, racism, sexism, speciesism, and religion. Anarchists advocate a self-managed, classless, stateless society without borders, bosses, or rulers where everyone takes collective responsibility for the health and prosperity of themselves and the environment.

20 or 30 homeless people camped in the parking lot of an unoccupied office building. They had had been there for a little over a month. As I was leaving for work this morning 6 cop cars turned the corner. When I got back, there was yellow tape everywhere and all the tents were in a pile waiting to be loaded into a garbage truck.

How can we destroy these monsters? What hope is there? What good am I that I did nothing to stop any of it?

Those cop cars could have been about anything given the information you had at the time. When you found out, it was already over. That's not your fault!

Is there anyone you can tell besides us that this happened, preferably someone local or who works with homeless people?

When I got back, there was yellow tape everywhere and all the tents were in a pile waiting to be loaded into a garbage truck.

So they weren't even allowed to gather their belongings before they were kicked out, and then said belongings were destroyed? I'm not a lawyer, but considering the obsession with protecting property in capitalist "justice" systems, that's where I might start with getting some compensation for the displaced people if I was one. Fucking scumbag cops.
