Not you, Scolopendra

2020-12-28 01:48:14 UTC  

I don’t like fascism though

2020-12-28 01:48:17 UTC  

i think its a shame that the community got rekt, because that financial damage will cost a lot of people jobs, even though im not pro-capitalist, its gonna hurt the community. also a lot of innocent people were hurt in the riots

2020-12-28 01:48:23 UTC  

but it woudlnt have happened if george floyd wasnt killed

2020-12-28 01:48:44 UTC  

George floyd's death was not a race based death

2020-12-28 01:48:53 UTC  

Do you know what fascism is by any chance

2020-12-28 01:48:54 UTC  

And to assert such a claim is idiotic

2020-12-28 01:49:18 UTC  

George Floyd's death was a direct result of police incompetence

2020-12-28 01:49:21 UTC  

maybe it wasn't, however it was police misconduct

2020-12-28 01:49:33 UTC  

and african americans already face discrimination from the police

2020-12-28 01:49:41 UTC  

so its understandable why it was percieved as racially motivated

2020-12-28 01:49:49 UTC  

to a community that experiences a lot of that

2020-12-28 01:49:50 UTC  

Perception does not equal truth

2020-12-28 01:50:10 UTC  

whatever motivation: the police killed someone and sparked national riots

2020-12-28 01:50:12 UTC  

thoughts?

2020-12-28 01:50:16 UTC  

You gotta view things from outside the box in order to get the correct angle on the situation

2020-12-28 01:50:17 UTC  

not us leftists

2020-12-28 01:50:19 UTC  

it was a cop

2020-12-28 01:50:36 UTC  

I support protests. I do not support riots

2020-12-28 01:50:58 UTC  

Yes. A cop kneeled on the neck of George Floyd. Did that cop deserve to be fired? Absolutely. Did the entire police prescient deserve to go up in flames or get destroyed? No

2020-12-28 01:51:21 UTC  

The riots were reactionary though. Saying Antifa incited anything isn’t correct. If anything, Antifa just joined the party.

2020-12-28 01:51:46 UTC  

I do not support arson, theft, assault, and other forms of violent and/or other belligerent activities as a means of pushing a political agenda.

2020-12-28 01:51:53 UTC  

Antifa is full of opportunists who use these scenarios to go out and cause violence

2020-12-28 01:52:11 UTC  

so are white supremacist groups and trump supporting groups

2020-12-28 01:52:18 UTC  

so are right wing libertarian groups

2020-12-28 01:52:20 UTC  

I think the Antifa comments were more about the west coast riots this year than George Floyd. We just skipped into this as a part of damage from riots. Some Antifa members went to Minneapolis and to DC to try and capitalize on the anger to try and get the police defunded

2020-12-28 01:52:22 UTC  

so are police tbh

2020-12-28 01:52:30 UTC  

Were they solely responsible? No. Does that mean they're innocent? No.

2020-12-28 01:52:35 UTC  

George Floyd Overdoesed.

2020-12-28 01:52:47 UTC  

@saw17 aren’t you the white nationalist kid

2020-12-28 01:52:58 UTC  

George Floyd did not die of an overdose.

2020-12-28 01:53:38 UTC  

The autospy revealed he had been taking drugs.

2020-12-28 01:53:46 UTC  

That doesn’t mean he died of an overdose

2020-12-28 01:53:54 UTC  

@saw17 I smoke weed every day, doesn’t mean that if I die, it’s from cannibas

2020-12-28 01:54:01 UTC  

At least he died where he wanted: on the ground instead of in the car.

2020-12-28 01:54:15 UTC  

@meeb when, if ever, is violence justifiable in order to achieve political reform?

2020-12-28 01:54:27 UTC  

im an anti-fascist, idk what "antifa" is, I didnt incite any riots. the urban black community in this city started rioting, not all of them, but a significant sum of younger black people. then, a lot of white people, hispanics, asians, and others joined them for ideology or opportunist (siezing goods from capitalists) reasons or both. i guess black people are anti-fascists... but not in the sense you're thinking

2020-12-28 01:54:31 UTC  

They should have just locked his ass in the cruiser and left him.

2020-12-28 01:54:37 UTC  

i assume you arent pro fascist either?

2020-12-28 01:54:49 UTC  

Well.. actually
