U.S. Riots of May 2020 over George Floyd and others - ITT: a bunch of faggots butthurt about worthless internet stickers

[MrJokerRager]

If I put my conspiracy hat on, I think this whole George Floyd protest was to 1. bring down the orange man 2. keep the economy wrecked for longer to hurt orange man 3. distract the public from how they’re getting bent over and raped by the government and the elites in this country who don’t have a fuck about you 4. set up a racial supremacist organization that will call anyone who’s a populist and against immigration and letting the elites continue to loot the country as a “racist” and ruin the life of anyone who disagrees. I just don’t know what we do from here, there’s no leadership out there for regular people who just want to have politics out of our lives. I liked politics when it was a fun hobby and a philosophical argument. Now it’s to the point where families and friendships are being destroyed.

This is full reverse KKK move. Just swap everything you said lol except the elites part. So our elites are getting more and more turning into rootless parasites on the whole world.

One thing to bear in mind with the lack of opposition is that one has to consider what the benefit of opposing is.

I think this is the crux of why a silent majority comes about. What is the benefit of putting your neck out there and declaring that the emperor is naked? Well, you'll get shit on, maybe you'll get some 'I agree with you but I'll never say that' from people lacking in gusto, but that's really all the more. You'd be risking your employment and your livelihood in defense of truth - which doesn't much pay the bills.

The risk, of course, is that people capitulate and stay quiet on something that is a paper tiger at its core, and allow it to do things which are damaging in the long-term and can't be recovered from once such a thing inevitable collapses in on itself. That's the point at which one wishes there had been more pushback. 'Course, it's hard to tell when too much is too much, and when you're dealing with a rot that's been festering for decades and decades.

Methinks the best thing to do is to get yourself secure and far-removed from where it's going to go down when everything falls in. We all know there's so much debt being piled up in social programs, in colleges, in private households, in health care, so-on so-forth. Social Security and Medicare/aid and so-on were all going to run out relatively soon -before- Corona and this shit. That's all gonna crumble sooner or later.

They also think they are way smarter then they are. These are not forces you can control. I imagine if there is some globo homo elite pulling the strings behind the scenes, it's less an Illuminati Cabal and more the night crew of Chernobyl circa 1986.

As a kid we used to watch terminator 2, and special attention was given to how they use John connor in that one. The whole time he's loading mags, managing ammo, hitting buttons, and staying out of the way. It seems to help kids get the concept that there are times when scary stuff is happening and they need to be able to keep their shit together and keep out of the way.

Competent, useful kids are rare in america. We coddle them too much. Give me a chain smoking 8 year old ethiopian kid working 80 hour weeks any day.

Completely agree. At least those wee souls know how to act when shit hits the fans

I know someone who feigns nutball far-leftism to see if anyone sanity checks him. He'll talk about concentration camps for trump voters, and about how we can use the 4473 you fill out when you buy a gun to make a registry of intentional and possible governmental subversives, then round them up in the middle of the night. If they "learn their lesson working in the camp, maybe they'll be allowed to live". He said he's found no moral boundary people will call him out on aside from interning their kids, because "it's not their fault their parents brainwashed them into being republican."

I'm sure he's not the only one. I normally have to feign at least some kind of left leaning political views in public or in social interactions, and even if you just nod and smile during a political conversation with someone whos even slightly to the left, they'll spout some of the most horrifying and honestly racist shit I've ever heard, and no one dares to argue with them because what matters is not the argument itself, but the moral grandstand. The idea of being on "the right side of history" is more important then accepting a different viewpoint or having a genuine conversation about the topic. It stems from being absorbed into politics as a personality trait. These people are so emotionally invested in politics, that disagreeing with them is an insult to their own sense of self worth. I tried to have a genuine debate on how illegal immigration affects the US, and I was discussing it on an economic term, without insulting Mexicans or Immigrants, but how much it costs the US to fund people who don't pay taxes, and how low the standard of living it is, and they cut me off saying that they'd start getting angry and punch me.

Going forward, its important to understand that the people who defend rioting and looting are doing it, not because they believe what they are saying is true, but because its the correct thing to say

God, I wish that were me.

King fought for peace and understanding.

Martin King fucked for peace and understanding, in his hotel room, with his whores. He didn't fight for anything that his communist handlers didn't tell him to - peace and understanding are not exactly their platform, that is exactly the opposite of what they fight for.

 

[Comicsgeist]

The fact that there is more and more outside support from random countries and companies makes everything suspicious as fuck. It shouldn't be a worldwide issue.

No mistake about it. There is a big push to oust Trump through destabilization. All these companies see the America first protectionism of his policies as a threat to their profits and ability to do shady deals with shady nations like China and they want him gone.

This is honestly what is causing this mess. Nobody is standing up to them publicly, and those few who do are getting torn apart by the mob while those who agree sit back and watch. At some point their needs to be an "I am Spartacus" moment, or else these loons will win by default.

Its almost like there are powerful transnational interests that dont like the idea of the global hegemony suddenly being more concerned with it's own interests rather then being the dumping ground of global consumer products and financial transactions. But that is a tinfoil hat conspiracy.

You mean I'm not saving the world when I CONSOOM.

The media is gonna be on them like the rabid disease infested sewage pit of locusts that they are. They see a wounded animal, they crawl on it as fast as they can.

I'm not sure I entirely agree about the need for such a moment. When came that moment in the 70s that ushered in the 80s? The left destroyed itself and alienated the country and got slaughtered in 1972.

Today, it seems like this craze is more supported by the establishment on the surface, yet that seems to be quite a visage all the same. What I think will happen is that these people will turn on themselves and burn out... And the moment then comes to preserve all of this and never let these people forget how pathetic, unintelligent, and weak they are. I think it then becomes time to make these people really really loathe themselves once it becomes clear just how fucking stupid they are -- drive 'em either into doubling down as loonbags or shutting their trap essentially forever.

It's not yet the time for it, I feel - once they start to crumble in, it's time to browbeat, it's time to point to statistics and examples of how they helped to cause struggling and pain and economic despair among the people they claimed so, so hard to care about. People now are being cancelled; methinks the hope is once the pendulum begins swinging back, pour on the shame and wry sardonic venom onto this oh-so-righteous crusaders.

Quite honestly, so many of these people are insecure, batshit insane messes of made-up and self-inflicted mental illness and anxiety and depression and bluh bluh bluh. On the pendulum backswing, it's up to those folks who want to bring sanity, reason, logic, and emotion restrained for the purposes of the floushing of all people... to capitalize on these glaring cracks and insecurities and wind up these people; let them break themselves down into miserable, self-destructive wrecks. The risk of ushering in your 'revolution' on the back of self-loathing and a cult of weakness... is that it wouldn't be so hard for that foundation to rot and wobble, would it?

Maybe the founder's primary run redpilled him and the other upper management?

Mid-sized city that was briefly getting flooded with rich white gentrifiers, but which seems to have withstood that slow and seeping assault for the most part.
