So if you didn't see, George Floyd is trending, and for the most disgusting fucking reason.

The right is literally just using George Floyd's name in order to make people feel sympathy for the shooting of two cops. Fuck that shit and fuck you
George Floyd was a random man who had absolutely no reason to be killed at all. He was a man who deserved a long and happy life, and he had that stolen from him

The two cops that were shot decided to put their lives on the line to defend fascism, and they're going to survive.
These two things are not at all the fucking same. Especially since the person who shot at the cops is actually being pursued and, once caught, will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

George Floyd's murderers were only fired after the story spread worldwide
Not only that but they have still yet to actually be given a sentence, and I guarantee that sentence will be short.

A man fighting back against fascism and oppression is nowhere near the same as a fascist police state murdering a black man just because they could. ACAB
Once again, might I add, the police officers both came out of surgery and are both going to survive with no long term injuries.

If you find any equivalency between the two occurrences, you are part of the problem.
