Counterpoint: It starts in the cities and spills out into rural areas, once it's out of the cities, it will take a very long time to stomp out the flare-ups in all the little pockets of civilization. All those towns of 20-70k see hate crimes for the next few years. Like the black guy dragged by those two rednecks in the 90s, all over the country, for a long time. High schools are going to be really shitty in the fall. We already know what college campuses turn out on a good day. I hope you are right, but I am also prepared for an extended riot season. Watching shit like Bosnia, LA riots, and Waco all those years ago planted the seed, I'm not going to be caught with my pants down. Their goal is for it to be everywhere, not just the cities.

The people wreaking shit aren't going to get anymore support than they already have and from what we've seen so far they never get farther than walking distance from where they sleep because most of them don't have transportation or can't afford to use any without the risk of being much easier to identify or becoming stranded and caught. That's assuming any of these people have the nuts to try shit in an area where someone won't get crucified for putting a bullet in them.

They've already proven they aren't going to venture out of their shitholes.

Haha, the millennials support this shit and they're just starting to seize the reigns. You really think a bunch of future millennial politicians are the saviors of this nation? Maybe it'll end eventually, but you won't be young anymore when that happens.

You really think the internet is going to start opening up?

It doesn't fucking matter what "the people" think. They don't matter. They've never mattered. If they mattered than Ron Paul would have actually had a decent shot when he ran for nominee and Bernie Sanders would probably be president right now. The people who control shit matter, be it a bank, corporation, web host, whatever. What the fuck are the people gonna do, vote in an election?

Most of us on the Farms have been run off most of the internet. We've been around a long time. I don't know how old you are but you're probably younger than most of us. I feel at home here especially when people bitch about how much better web 1.0 was (and I thought I was the only one that went on rants about that). There's been slow pernicious changes to the public mentality. Some of them were good, like gay marriage--but what's coming next ain't gonna be so good. There's NO way we can go back to a web 1.0 anymore unless there's some blockchain alternative or some new tech people think up. Society is shifting. Doesn't always happen for the good. People are dumb and assume what they're being told is true.

The mildly interactive nature of this monstrosity of the web makes it a much more powerful popaganda tool than TV ever could have been,

Very poor choice of words, Joe...! :story:

Besides, a well-placed shot on a leg could have you bleeding to death in about 15 minutes, that's all it takes for an adult to bleed to death from a major artery shot.

Everybody thinks you can just activate fucking VATS and click on the leg.

Early polling indicates that nearly 6/10 people hold that view and nearly 6/10 support the protests in general. Of course the polls were done before things really went bad. It'll be interesting to see if support for the protests (or crackdown) drops. Extrapolating anecdotes doesn't get you far and tends to magnify the views of people around you.

Anecdotes and whispered "controversial takes" are still a far better gauge than Reddit and Twitter and probably most polling, Nate Silver.

Nobody asked you. Go back to being a walking sex symbol with your low IQ takes.

Also, I wasn't aware that I "chose" to be Black. This isn't an RPG character creator. If it was, you need to increase your Intelligence stats.

Weird how often the narrative changes from “rioting brings change you made us do this” to “the far right are causing the riots, we’re being peaceful” back and forth a lot

It's almost like being a decentralized organization exploited by quite literally everyone means there's no center to organize on.
But how could that ever be possible?

Albert Sidney Johnston died at Shiloh cause of such idiotic thinking.

*gets shot in the leg* Oh well, I'm not dead, might as well continue to do my job.

(fifteen minutes later)

ASJ: Oh shit, maybe I am wounded pretty bad *falls out of saddle dead*

Some Mexican street gangs teamed up with the police in Chicago to defend the community from rioters. An elderly black retired policeman was killed by looters and people are using his death to show that the protests have gone too far. Trump even tweeted about the death. Apart from that, there's nothing new I think. Violence is escalating and companies are posting about their support of BLM but that's been going on for days.

Fun video about the Mexican gangbanger situation:

It was her choice to put all her skill points into her breasts. She's from Mylasia, that's like maxing strength on a mage. I applaud the effort but you really should have thought that through before trying to fight the dragon.

Just a word of advice, I really advice against sharing counter-revolutionary opinions with anyone during this. Not with coworkers, not with friends not with family.
Don't do anything that could get you labeled as a counter-revolutionary

agree with the "dont share opinions" part.
disagree with "don't do anything" though. just make sure nobody sees you do something.
