“Global Escalation”

An anonymous online group, calling themselves “Global Escalation,” is organizing a global protest set to take place from November 27-29, 2024. This event is being promoted as a series of actions to enforce change through “collective resistance.” The group encourages participants to go on strike, refuse to shop, and take direct action as a demonstration against perceived injustices.

The rhetoric associated with this event is aggressive and openly promotes violent resistance. Their website features imagery that glorifies riots, with calls to escalate tensions and engage in direct confrontations. This campaign has been promoted by Susan Abulhawa, further raising concerns due to her influence in political activism and history of endorsing controversial events.

Global Escalation: Though little is known about this anonymous group, their messaging is clear—promote unrest, disruption, and aggressive direct action. The event’s rhetoric and imagery suggest a deliberate effort to provoke confrontations, which raises significant concerns about public safety and the potential for violence.
