I cant even follow the concern trolling up this time around. We have 40 million people unemployed and the government has basically abdicated all responsibility. Eventually, there will be protests about that and the police will be busting those skulls too.
Too many people live under the delusion that the state will take it easy on them once they align themselves with any sort of agenda that elites view as unacceptable
Oh you're white? They are going to be busting that ass too once you get on the wrong side of the issue using the same tools you thought were reserved for PoC
This is a failure of people to understand that systems and methods they've been conditioned to normalize as needed to control "problem" communities will eventually be used to control them as well
This is because they've been taught to ethnicize the problem and see it's consequences as entirely cordoned off to one community and having no effect on society as a whole. So the importance of it becomes a matter of empathy.
I see people argue over police unarmed shooting statistics and whether blacks or whites are shot more based on per capita etc. This is a child's argument that obscures a larger truth
Yes, the cops disproportionately kill PoC. However, we also have one of the most militarized, hyper violent unaccountable police forces in the world and that is only allowable because of the accepted narrative that there is an innately criminal population that requires it
Lol we are at the brink of climate collapse and mass unemployment and you have people scratching their thick craniums and providing cover to the cops who will eventually be beating their asses when they ask for clean water
Racism is so deleterious to our society and it's ability to think clearly that a significant number of people are okay with heavily armed roving gangs of wife beaters acting as an occupying force because someone told them a vague story about how they will only target "bad guys"
