I've hated donald trump since day one but then I saw this and thought....

Yeah, the protestors shouldn't be physically stopping the shutzstaffel from taking people to the camps. They should all get on busses for a two week round trip to inform the president that he violated the constitution when he sent in the marines and they would like him to stop now please if its not too much trouble.
When will these fuvking politically incompetent lefties ever learn?
If lefties could learn they'd be leftists
-
Well if they wanted to fix it, they could have. They just are so left wing that they refuse to.
At this point I don't even think you know who you're talking about.

Yeah, every Mexican flag in all of these photos is NOT helping their cause any. Just looks like exactly what the GOP says it is, an invasion. I'm not even sure I've SEEN an American flag during all the protest photos going around.

This is the same playbook they use. Russia do it, Germany do it, France do it, Canada do it, Israel do it.
We saw congress representatives ignoring people questions, and sometime not even showing up for meetings.
The whole idea is to represent people, but they ignore your voice.
They take your right, they ignore your peaceful protest, and then criminalize your peaceful protest, then arrest you.
When you try to resist symbolically “Thrown rock at a tank” they escalate the response and claim you are violent.
Then they tell you “should protest peacefully” so they can again ignore you and retaliate silently.
The US history is full with peaceful protest, useful protest did nothing and never done any thing useful.
When the protest start taking rich people income that when we see a quick change.

Thanks for the chuckle. the Hank hills above you won't get it until their family is kidnapped unfortunately.
Hank Hill is often reasonable and would likely come around. If only conservatives were actually like him.

Yes, and in fact we're making little 3d printed commemorative statues of everyone who gets on the busses; one of each for each of us, plus one for the president! So he knows we mean business!
but they ignore your voice
Thats why the little statues and the silent protest. We've booked a closet across (the street) from the oval office to make our silence more poigniant, while standing with our lgbt brothers and sisters (but not other siblings. We don't want to make a bad impression!) This pride month.
they take your right
Lets see them try to take our right to remain silent then! I bet they cant! It's in the constitution!
throw a rock at a tank
No please. That's violent and scary and what a fascist would do i bet
history is
Fucking nerd
i will literally send mecha-robespierre to murder you
Reported for violence!

I'm saying it has everything to do with optics.
Big angry crowds all flying Mexican flags just plays into their agenda. It looks like this isn't Americans fighting back against ICE, it looks like it's Mexicans fighting back against ICE IN America...
Which in turn, just makes it look (to the average American) that they're onto something, and that the Trump team is doing what they say they are.

You do know that when Germans protest against Nazis they commonly use the German flag, right?
indeed.It's heartwarming to see all the people from German instances show up to roast this dude.
-
Its not that they're self driving; it's that they're covered in cameras and the cops have live access.
Edit: and apparently root access to the whole car.
I wasn't claiming a reason why they did it, just wanted to highlight how much worse the police's response has been.
-

I'm not German and thought "huh, I'm not German; maybe I'm actually wrong, and I'm not going to overstep here"... And then the Germans arrived.

It's worse than that. The waymos were originally ordered by protesters wishing to leave the area. Sheriff didn't like that, so they asked waymo directly to lock down the cars so they couldn't be used to "flee the area". Waymo complied and stranded people in the middle of this mess, and the crowd decided to help them out and express their displeasure at waymo for capitulation to the gestapo. I hope whatever insurance waymo has denies all their claims and forces them to eat the loss.

I have not seen this information anywhere, it should be brought to attention more.
Everywhere it is "rioters ordered the waymos, they arrived empty and then were set on fire".

Nope, optics is just another scape goat that keeps lefties on the benches while the right is burning the constitution.
Action > optics
Force the rights hand. Its time.

Technically correct, but definitely missing context. I picked it up watching FilmThePoliceLA Sunday when he was talking to people around the waymos before thy were set on fire.

You got downvoted but you're right
wrote on last edited by [email protected]He's wrong by default because he fell for the LeftRightism demobilisation memes, but it is true that nearly all politicians work for the preservation of the status above all else. Those that performatively go against the grain, are tokenist politicians, like Noam Chomsky, serce the system by denouncing it. Autoflagellants.
Now the way out of this is "Effective Action", organized, targeted, effective not demonstrative. The demonstration is the warning before action. The proof they mean business with barely contained violence.

Trump is using the military to occupy a city that hates him. He wants to deport a lot of people, but the city isn't having it so protests have emerged.
From what I've seen, four self driving taxies was burned (the car on the image) by protestors, while the police intentionally shot a news reporter, used a horse to trample a detained protestor, and has deployed marines to the streets.
Saw news report claiming the deportation was a rumor, the op never happened. Lemmy shows otherwise, what's real?

Ummm guys I'm not american can someone what the heck is going on?
The orange turd is attacking American citizens to cause commotion so we can forget that he is named in the Epstein files where he is probably named as a rapist.
-
This. Exactly. Why burn the US flag and fly another nations flag when you're supposedly 'fighting for American democracy'? It doesn't make sense, and the optics aren't good.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]Oh now it's about flag burning? You're not sure you've even seen a US flag, but suddenly it's on fire?
Fuck the optics. Wave the flag of our allies who are under attack in this nation, and refuse any suggestion that they are our enemies. Freedom of speech is patriotic as fuck.

The low IQ Republican take who aren't smart enough to get the context.
