One of my friends is very proud to have been arrested during a BLM riot. Flash bangs, tear gas, all that. Now he brings it up as some sort of arguing point: “YEA WELL WHERE WERE YOU?”
So they all got arrested and had to stay outside all night while being held. Today im talking to him and he claims they changed alot. He brought up “all those convictions” but only one cop was convicted last year while over 200 were killed. Then he mentioned Aubery who was murdered in Alabama, but they were private citizens not cops, and there was literally video of the murder. Naturally he didn’t seem to take that fact well.
Defunding didnt happen much either. Is this just a liberal brain trying to convince themselves theyve done something useful? Because nothing really changed after they dragged Bernie away either.
if it helps, they also think only red fascism has existed and theres never been a successful communist country.
I went out but there was just nowhere for me to be. I live in a big city, but there just wasn’t much organization happening at all. Everyone in my town is just tired and depressed all the time and couldn’t muster enough energy to do much. There were protests over maybe 2 days, but the pigs didn’t do anything in retaliation except stand around. Even then the biggest protests were maybe a hundred, two hundred people at most. I did hand out some food to the homeless and try to talk to some everyday folk about what was going on. I got a single lib to agree to read Frantz Fanon.
I tried.
