Not really yet, but they sure want it to be.Oh goodie, 30 new pages while I was out and about. I take it Louisville is on fire?
So they are passing out firearms from the back of a truck? Am I readong this right? If yes then how is this not connected to an intelligence agency or foreign military operation?
It's the Drumpf KGB arming all of the alt-right Russian bots that showed up to hijack a peaceful riot.So they are passing out firearms from the back of a truck? Am I readong this right? If yes then how is this not connected to an intelligence agency or foreign military operation?
Its not just caste. There are clans as well.I don't understand how these people can enthusiastically burn small businesses, especially those in ghettos that are owned mostly by asian immigrants, while being supported by Amazon/CitiBank/etc., and genuinely believe that they're "fighting the system". Apu the MiniMart manager has nothing to do with systemic racism, more likely than not he fled India to escape from that country's absurdly racist caste system.
Oh shit. I haven't even thought of it. Generally, they've done a good job of that with all this rioting going on.
I could see the South reinvigorating the Dixiecrats again if this is anything to go by.
i think we all need to have a healthy distrust of police. we've empowered them over us, so we need to hold them accountable for everything they get wrong, but that doesn't mean we can't praise them for shit they get right too. more funding for police in general would solve a lot of these problems (obviously with the appropriate level of oversight to make sure it's not just paying for raises for the chief and his favorites), since a lot of police forces are stretched pretty thin or have poor training in things like proper deescalation.I know this is from like 10-20 pages ago but in my defense it's from today goddamn this thread moves fast
Such polling has been done. Pew did it back in like 2016 and again recently. Not specific to Seattle but the results among blacks was pretty common- they do not trust police. But they want police. In fact, the number of respondents that wanted MORE police outnumbered those that wanted LESS. The most common result was that black neighborhoods want the same or more policing but want better cops. Police are considered a necessary evil.
Which is way too fucking reasonable (and expensive) so instead you have city councils like those in Seattle and Portland made up of white dangerhairs that use black people as an excuse to try and get rid of police completely.
Including the U-Haul document for the truck said:

I love it when they attempt this sort of moronic glow argument. It removes any and all agency from the "black bodies" and their "allies" and portrays them as easily led automatons who actually want to cause chaos. And all it takes is a mysterious and unaffiliated U-Haul distributing paraphernalia/palette of bricks et al to spur them into full-fledged rioters.![]()
I think this invokes Maxim 20
Pinning it on "young folk" isn't really fair. There are shortsighted morons of all ages.Have you interacted with the average american? I wouldn't say that our young folk are really the best and brightest. If it'll get you asspats and attention, people will do it - now quick, get me a tide pod and a blindfold.
Mfw when I hear a streamer talk about how a protester was literally hogtied with a rope earlier.
