"We're standing around peacefully observing and two people throw water bottles so we get teargassed and maced"
Welcome to collectivism, faggot. This is what you're protesting for.
Saying "there's no leader and our group is decentralized" is the organization equivalent of "this isn't actually news, it's an opinion piece on our site that we publish shit on."
Good point, I see what you mean. But I don't think they'll keep trying, if what that Youtuber Vladimir Jaffe has shown me, whenever you contrast their arguments, they bail at the earliest possible convince.
Lol, Robert finally acknowledges that at least 2 people threw water bottles (possibly filled with gasoline,) and is still bitching that the Portland PD is dispensing tear gas with extreme prejudice, and even fired some rubber bullets.
Which is why you do it subtly, you have to figure out whatever rubric these retards have on gauging whether you're mad/pure/worthy or not, and then pushing all those buttons.
While you slowly keep making them change the subject through - again, subtle means (ie. if they're doing the whole "we'll talk to each other and make fun of you" phase, then keep butting in, they'll eventually try to LARP or some shit, in which case play off the larp).
This way, they'll be pissed off at you, they'll have no idea why, and due to peer pressure from the other people, they'll have to continue or look like a bitch in front of their "friends" thus turning the whole numbers advantage against them.
If you want actual advice for this entire shit, twitter has a homogenous opinion that if you don't support the protests, then you're a racist. Stemming from CONSOOMER bullshit and every company trying to suck the BBC, no idea where the stans fit into it.
Push all the little buttons that "everyone" should be pissed off about (calling the protestors rioters, something about looting, black people bad) without actually saying it (vague euphemisms, never say anything about race (since twitter can't make up it's mind if the looters are black or white and thus is left to user interpretation - which you can use, after all why is the white boy on twitter assuming I'm talking about black people when I mentioned looters) maybe reference joker, bane post about this being part of their plan, or some ironic reversal of whatever banter they're trying to pull).
