i am amazed at how much people care about would-be slavers/deporters/what have you, who got murdered in a weirdo friendly fire incident. absolutely flabbergasted right now what the gently caress

I care about how we just all accept that area denial justifies immediate deadly force and that really disturbs me. It doesn’t matter who she was. Stumbling over a line that puts you officially too close to power shouldn’t be an immediate death sentence

i absolutely don't accept any of that poo poo, and it's hosed up that people get shot at for "tresspassing" on the regular, especially while causing no harm to anyone. the absolute worst the lady did that day was what, smash a window? do we even know it was her? and try to climb through it

context matters tho and unfortunately she decided to attend a fash rally out of her own volition so, uh, sucks to be her i guess? in a better world, we'd have better education, better mental health care, less facebooks/Qs, and most importantly, no cops, but we're unfortunately not in that world, yet

It shouldn't but guess what, it does. And if you're trying to take over a government you should maybe consider that the government will shoot if you get too close to power.

it was a tepid fash rally organized by a wet grandpa who didn't even bother showing up. who was gonna take over a govt? a bunch of mostly unarmed chuds lounging in a gaudy rear end building? lmao

They thought they were. Sucks for them their game of pretend got too real.

i'd rather people who have delusions of grandeur get their heads fixed, but i guess that's too big a scope to start with :hmmyes:

e: vvvv yeah that's fair

just because it's not going well and the people carrying it out are a bunch of dumbfucks doesn't make it not what it is

e: and don't fool yourself into thinking it's over either

you know, i hadn't though about this, but this is the juan guaido coup playbook, isn't it. has pompeo chimed in yet on this? lmfao

I think this is the most likely outcome by far

this was always going to be the only outcome, and this event probably hasn't even sped up the process lol

It's true, it's only fascism if it's from the Fasces region of the political spectrum. Otherwise it's just sparkling neoliberalism.

i love that a bunch of weirdo libs decided a coup isn't a coup, because if you call a spade a spade someone might do something about it, which will definitely hurt the left

(the left is already getting hurt at max velocity and that ain't changing lol)

i'm not sure its a gap you're going to bridge. you're right of course, but the internet just can't help but hyperbolize rhetoric

in the past they organized literal street armies with uniforms and officer corps. today they tweet to a bunch of fat, atomized consumers. what's so different between the two?

the organized street armies are cops now, hth

its wasnt a coup because it wasnt a coup

i agree, but some people are incredibly insistent on not calling this a coup for a whole different reason lmao
