While ruling class has the interest to ensure the genocide happens "peacefully" without peasants fighting back, there is also one more important thing that's going on now — esp amongst fellow comrades in the West.
One of the reason for the brutalisation even when people are not physically fighting back is show who the real boss is. Esp who the real boss is within the physical spaces outside tiny private fiefdoms State calls "private property". Streets & all space outside these tiny fiefdoms/enclosures some are allowed to be transient "owner" of, are the areas where State exerts it's domination esp streets & all publicly visible areas.
We the peasants are allowed to make all sorts of assumptions the so called "rights" ruling class allowed us to pretend we are entitled to, while not seriously testing that belief ever.
Since some of us forget that this is a mere pretence & sometimes try and assert this "constitutional" pretence, ruling class is simply trying to tell everyone this:
You can delude yourself all you want about your "rights", so long as you know your place. If you stop deluding yourself & if you do act, you know what's coming to you.
