A friend of mine worked at that Target full time, and has two kids. Boy lets keep posting about how cool and righteous these people are sacking the Target and I am sure somehow that will pay her bills.

gently caress the MPD, but gently caress these people wrecking poo poo that's got nothing to do with it.

That might be the guy shot and killed by the liquor store owner that was defending his property. There was a report of a shooting and a fatality from that.

I'm sorry someone you knew worked for a big business and that somehow developed into bootlicking of capital.

Target can take it in the chin. It's just money. It's not going to affect your friend.

Target has the money to pay those employees while they get the store back up and running. Maybe write a letter or email to their home office, or your local rep agitating for more support for workers.

Sorry your friend is going to be inconvenienced but you don't need to schill for a loving corporation while people are rightfully protesting the slow rolling pogrom against minorities in this country as enacted by the loving police.

i mean i feel more bad for the workers than the store itself. what sucks is the company probably will gently caress a bunch of them over somehow. that being said i could give less of a poo poo about the looting(especially from a mega store) but the old lady thing was a little rough to say the least.

When we're all locked into a hosed up socio-economic system of relationships enforced by a structural status quo, the demolition of that status quo in any way will leave people floating in space until its repaired, reformed or replaced

This isn't meant to be a normative judgement in any direction that's just how it is. We're at that point where people are getting less frightened of rocking the boat because more people feel its been taking on too much water for too long and no longer give a gently caress and are now reacting.

I’m an irony poisoned leftist who is pretty alienated from the Democratic Party at this point, but this is some next level poo poo. This feels like a pretty naked attempt at some stochastic radicalization. I think we got one of Prester’s Impaction Cycles coming up. I am less confident of the occurrence or conventional response to an election than I ever have been in my life, which is to say I never once previously doubted a peaceful transition of power after an election as dirty or less than 2000. But I’m probably 70/30 on have election/election is canceled or ignored now.

Farewell, good Hunter. May you find your worth in the waking world.

I’m still honestly surprised that protestors haven’t outright started shooting at police. It’s like, there’s a noticeable sea change among protestors and voices on Twitter where the idea of armed conflict against cops is just.. becoming acceptable. Like if the cops are shooting at the protestors with non-lethal rounds (or gently caress, very often lethal rounds on any other day) then why shouldn’t the protestors shoot back? And with all the open carry and gun ownership.. man if it cooked off the cops wouldn’t stand a chance, and the protestors know that. The cops do too. It’s nuts but I won’t be surprised at all if/when we hear about cops dying tonight.

These officers broke the camels back.

If that's the construction site I think it is in that white supremacist's tweet you're quoting, it's going to be low-rise apartments with fantastic transit access. A lot of the new construction in that area has a low-income program of some sort, too.
