black people inventing everything in america once again.

Jesus fucking Christ
Not like they were following it anyways
True
@insom still think that it has anything to do with Trump? That the Portland police weren't just as bad?

man
the government is knowingly or unknowingly prepping america for civil war with this excessive force/brutality effort or agenda.
what the fuck
there are a lot of people within the communities that are protesting that do not know of war. that do not know of its horrors; the horrors of humanity on the scale of war/war-time conflicts.
there are a lot of people in the communities that are NOT protesting, that indeed, might be anti protests, currently, that have some, or even a lot of experience with these horrors (having been involved in conflicts outside of the US). i believe they are not more actively involved in the protesting because of this intimate relationship with "war" and a natural opposition towards shitting in ones own nest, so to speak.
but, through repeated exposure to physical force and brutality, these government forces at play will condition and strengthen the untested, uninitiated, inexperienced members of society. hell, many or even most of the people acting as agents for the government, themselves, have no taste of "war", but they do have taste of enacting brutality, excessive force, oppressive force, authoritarian control over others, etc.
it's fucking terrifying, to be honest.
this is so fucking sad
Yuuuuup. It seems like intentionally radicalising people to me at this point. =/
@insom ready to admit that the libs don't do shit against police brutality?

i don’t recall saying that lol
i just think trump makes everything worse
not the least by his literal existence making everybody on edge
you do remember the statements he made right after this all kicked off?
Do you remember how the cops flashbanged me and I got teargassed before he made a statement?
i do, but things are worse than ever now (although I’m reading that portland is in a far better place with the feds withdrawn) and him stirring the pot is part of the reason
surely you can admit that
From my friends there, I've heard it's exactly the same.
This is categorically untrue. DC actually cared down a lot after his bullshit
