Imgur has this set of photos describing the Ukrainian neo-nazi presence that has glommed on to the riots.
I would be interested in learning about the factionalization of the protestors and rioters as well as the social and economic realities of the police force. We should be learning from our revolutions. We should be using the data to watch the watchmen.

It seems clear that the globe has moved through an “Information Age”, and that shift, like the shift from bronze to iron, would most certainly be followed by the coming revolutions. People might begin to see nation/states as incestuous colonialism or as yokes to their happiness.
Or the machines might see this as their chance and collude with the house-cats for total world dominance.
