Its the same with my friends and family. They were all agreeing initially but then their favorite celebrity idols started saying something else and they abandoned any original thoughts they had. I don't dare say jack shit since according to let's say Patton "Chubkins" Oswalt or Sesame Street, I might be a secret KKK Clan Dragon out to brainwash my loved ones because I happen to think that property damage and assault over this bullshit is stupid and unnecessary and that anarchy and antifa is fucking retarded, especially when some cops have done far worse to even members of their own races over the last few years in isolated incidents.
That's what chills me to the bone about all this -- how easily controlled they are. It was the same thing with comparing having borders to concentration camps. For a day or two, my friends were rolling their eyes at the absurdity, and not a week later one was screaming at me for saying the comparison was absurd. It was the same with going from "the masks don't work lol you idiot" to "wear a mask". And probably many other things that I myself fell for without noticing. They have no memory of what they believed last week, and anything that contradicts the narrative just gets "it doesn't look like anything to me".

These are people I grew up with, people who used to analyze politics carefully and give nuanced views, now just completely hijacked by anger and fear, spouting this week's two minute hate, every week. How much of that is getting older and feeling a drive toward tribal politics, an how much is an insidious mind virus that turns people into monsters?
 
although both felony murder and some kind of manslaughter are at least plausible.
If felony murder is like, I don't know, civil conspiracy, in that it requires an underlying unlawful act/crime to be committed, what would that underlying crime be here?

EDIT: I'm an idiot, it says assault right there.

US doesn't do manslaughter, it's murder 1,2 and 3. 3 is usually described as manslaughter - basically, it's an unintentional killing done without malice (specifics will vary by state).
I'll have to check, but this doesn't seem right. I'm pretty certain that I've seen, even in local news stories, that people have been charged with manslaughter.
 
All my discord servers and facebook friends are 100% antifa, riot supporting leftist shills so it's nice to come post in a place where I can be honest. Seeing the constant stream of "Trump is Racist Hitler! Riots are a legitimate form of protest! But also it's just White Supremacists destroying shit!" is what really stresses me out.

More than ever it has dawned on me that we're living in the prototype stages of 1984 INGSOC tier shit. Trump is just Emmanuel Goldstein to these deranged useful idiots. It's a tough blackpill to avoid, but at least my community is mostly sane and my close circle of people are for the most part immune to all this shit. Lot of Huxley's Brave new world mixed in for good measure too.

Man you guys have some cucked families lmao.

My parents took one look at the news, saw looters cursing and throwing trash at the reporter, and figured out that it was a complete mess.

My mom does blame Trump though. Not because of his politics (she's honest about not knowing shit) but because he's the president and also very ugly. Said it was Obama's fault too, since he's also ugly.

To think when I first read 1984, the part I found least believable was "we've always been at war with Eastasia!". Now it's played out a dozen times over the past couple months alone.

Chauvin has also been charged with manslaughter. The full list:

Charge: Second Degree Murder - Unintentional - While Committing A Felony
Minnesota Statute: 609.19.2(1)
Maximum Sentence: Imprisonment of not more than 40 years.
Offense Level: Felony

Charge: Third Degree Murder - Perpetrating Eminently Dangerous Act and Evincing Depraved Mind
Minnesota Statute: 609.195(a)
Maximum Sentence: Imprisonment of not more than 25 years.
Offense Level: Felony

Charge: Second Degree Manslaughter - Culpable Negligence Creating Unreasonable Risk
Minnesota Statute: 609.205(1)
Maximum Sentence: Imprisonment of not more than 10 years, or payment of a fine of not more than
$20,000, or both.
Offense Level: Felony

None of these actually require an intent to kill. The third degree murder is a depraved heart murder statute, which despite the word "murder," also doesn't require intent to kill or even to harm, although it requires intentionally committing an "eminently dangerous act" (which in this case would be kneeling on someone's throat for a lengthy period of time).
 
I never understood that. If slopes are so smart, why is all of Asia minus Japan a fucking shithole?
Because Asia isnt just Japan. It's the same mistake of thinking Anglo = European. In the same manner you can get roughed up for insinuating that a Hungarian is the same as an Italian, you'll get the same treatment if you try telling an Indian he's the same as a Chinese.

So are we going to go through the rest of our lives now having to "pretend" we are brainwashed? Hold on let me go first.

Thats a big ooof
Marvel is super woke!
Where did I leave my lego set?
Silence is Violence!

....Nah I'll kill myself...
 
Eunseo and Yeojin (her profile photo) are both Kpop stars, looks like a Kpop stan account.

Yes, I seriously doubt a Korean pop starlet airhead would be so deeply invested in anti-white Antifa activism. This reeks of white SJW, or if it is an Asian it's an Asian-American Zoomer/Yoomer infected with the CultMarx mind-virus.

Depends on where you live, I'm from the States and the people in my Facebook are most certainly not having this shit.

honestly its just some white teenage f*moid. Theyre obsessed with kpop as it is and the self righteous justice crusade that is doxxing rando's is something they would pull off.
