Any time I had a problem, and I threw a Molotov cocktail… Boom, right away, I had a different problem.

[–] Curiousfur@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago (4 children)

I've heard that if you use the rag as a stopper it could explode in your hands, so allegedly you should tie it onto the outside of the neck of the bottle and use a non-flammable stopper. In Minecraft or something

[–] quantumcrop@lemmy.today 7 points 6 days ago

Idk about blowing up but I've definitely seen multiple videos where someone throws it and the rag comes out and shoots a flaming stream of liquid backwards at the thrower.

[–] gandalf_der_12te@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

so, just that i understand this correctly, you're basically using a glass bottle that shatters on impact, filling it with alcohol/gasoline, closing the tab, binding a burning piece of tissue around it, and then throwing it?

[–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

filling it with alcohol/gasoline

You'll want to experiment, but a 50/50 mixture of gasoline and diesel fuel will give improved results. You can also dissolve Styrofoam packing peanuts and/or soap flakes in the gasoline to give it a stickier consistency.

Napalm sticks to ~~kids~~ Kiddie Diddlers.

[–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 3 points 6 days ago

I read once that you can use a tampon instead of a rag, but I think that would likely blow out when you throw it. But, you could stuff a corner of the rag into the bottle, and then force a tampon in behind it to secure the rag/wick.

The US Army publishes a field manual on improvised munitions. I've been meaning to read it.

[–] modus@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

This is true. Look at the Egyptian American guy who attacked that pro-israel march. He used open glass containers. The second one he threw spilled burning fuel all over him.

Close enough?

I guess the revolution will be commodified

Don’t buy this crap

I'm a guy and if I ever take up cross stitching .. I'll be making things like this and hang them all over the living room and cover my sofa with plastic

[–] sprite0@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Those little cheap kits that come with everything you need and a frame are a great way to get into the hobby!

[–] Rooty@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Nothing is stopping you from getting an embroidery frame and doing it yourself, OP. Embroidery is a cheap and fun hobby, and I heartily recommend it.

what is the role of anarchists in the revolution?

The revolution part, tankies get to do the reaction if we pull it off though; don't worry.

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

To burn things down so they have to be rebuilt instead of just taken over.

[–] gandalf_der_12te@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

interesting. do you think a certain destruction is inevitable?

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 2 points 6 days ago

I would say not only inevitable, but required.

If you keep the same infrastructure and only change the leadership, things will quickly go back to how they were, but this time the leaders kind of know what to expect from the revolution.
