Tetrabor posted:I absolutely hate Nazis and fully support Antifa up until the point of anarchism. This does not answer any of my questions. quote:I just don't get this degree of blowback for supporting some form of balance in society that isn't imagining a utopia where no-one commits wrongdoings. Police are a very specific "form of balance," police abolitionists are not opposed to all such forms. Are you sure you can't think of any alternatives to police? There are several in Portland alone.

we need cops to protect our obama mannequins from hate crimes “He said he hated Obama, and that the mannequin was looking at him bad,” Buzzetti said. “He said, ‘That doll was giving me bad looks. I’m tired of him. Obama brought the country down.’ He said he walks by the store every day and sees Obama every day and it made him really angry.”

like 99% of all crime would disappear overnight if you removed the economic rationale and replaced the cops with a non-violent civilian group that focuses on mediating conflicts tbh

by sheer number of victims most crime including murder is committed by the wealthy and powerful and never punished, certianly not by the police

this isn't even a controversial statement, ranking members of the bush administration including the president are guilty of hundreds of thousands of murders even if you only consider the iraq war which was definitely extremely illegal murder and they get hugs from michelle obama and liberals wishing for their return

The fact that Bush was never tried in the Hague or somewhere shows how broken the system is.

Look if you're going to kill the guy who raped women and sent their families to gulags you'd better have an idea to what to replace it with that isn't anarchy. Not just going on a macho tirade about unaccountable death squads are wrong.

i remember as a young leftist demanding that harper arrest bush for war crimes and thinking that it was an actual possibility. i was very dumb and idealistic and also blind to the complicity of the rest of the western nations in american war crimes

lol the first purge literally has black militants slicing, dicing and shooting guys in kkk hoods in defense of their community. later we see all-white stormtroopers moving through a housing project gunning down the occupants while being led by a man in SS cosplay it is not a subtle movie

How is that possible? The politics couldn't be more blatant unless the characters turned to the screen and exposed at the audience directly.

poo poo the original purge movie is about college republicans hunting a homeless black veteran who is reluctantly aided by a family of petite bourgeoisie white people after they are confronted by the horror of the world they've helped build he comes back later on as the leader of a resistance movement
