PSA: if you're talking about doing actual political violence on social media in public, you are a dangerously ignorant twerp who lacks the situational awareness required to do anything useful for anyone.
That's why, as pissed as I get at times, I will never advocate for violent actions against gov't officials.
It's a real quick way to find yourself in very hot water.
And that is how the right wins. They do it all the time and don't care. The law is only selectively enforced on this. And lets be honest, the bad people are not seeing any consequences for what they do.
lots of these people do get caught and punished actually
Like, in MA, we are seeing way fewer local Nazi protests than we used to because so many of the CHUDs are serving jail sentences
I think some optimism is good here but also I think if the US is anything like here there is widespread lawbreaking in areas like housing, employment etc and systems of accountability are bleak and difficult so I think the view that the law is only for some people is justified
oh, absolutely - it’s both true that this is the case and it’s applied incredibly unfairly, and also true that a lot of these fuckers do get got eventually
Ya which is awesome, and I love to see it. I just can’t blame the skepticism having been violently assaulted a number of times and the most justice I’ve had yet is someone getting sub $800 in traffic fines lol
They are. Most Extreme Right terror plots are thwarted and the people are sent to jail. Most people wouldn't see that since it's standard criminal investigations and not really "news worthy."
