From the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco to the Brooklyn Bridge in New York, activists snarled traffic, creating a hellish commute for people just trying to get home or to work.

Radical left activists are back at it with a tactic that feels like déjà vu. These weren’t your peaceful protesters rallying on Monday in solidarity with Palestinians; these are disruptors who view chaos as a stepping stone to their anti-capitalist utopia. They’re just pretending to care about what happens in Gaza. It's crucial that city leaders step up now.

The anti-police violence during the peak of the Black Lives Matter movement got them the headlines and chaos they desired. And without significant consequences, why stop? Take Seattle’s I-5 freeway takeover on January 6—months later, those identified haven't even faced charges. Monday’s activists will get off with a slap on the wrist like a fine, and at worst, some restorative justice program that barely registers as punishment.

Though elements of the activists are very obviously antisemitic, much anger is generated by Israel’s embrace of capitalism. Israel’s capitalist economy is robust thanks, in large part, to significant technical advancements and a strong entrepreneurial spirit. The country epitomizes the very economic system activists oppose because they believe it exacerbates disparities between the wealthy and the poor, both within its borders and in its dealings with Palestinians.

So, what’s next? Unless city leaders take a firmer stance against these disruptions, expect things to escalate. We’re not just dealing with a protest; it’s an all-out assault on the structure of society by those who believe they have nothing to lose. If left unchecked, this movement could morph into something even more dangerous than what we witnessed with Antifa and BLM. The time for half-measures is over. It’s time to confront these tactics head-on and restore order, for everyone's sake.
