look at this...
the more this stuff spreads the better
ppl are going to see it. 90% of protesters are under the age of 30 it seems like. we are all on social media. this adds more fuel to the fire.
Also after this I never wanna hear another person (Democrat or Republican) talk about supporting/criticizing revolutions in other countries
Y'all tear gassing and shootin your own people. These cops are acting like thugs just to get off on their power trip
Anyone got a list of the best places to donate if you can’t get out and protest/if there isn’t any in your country/city?

Yep,it’s a job just like everything else and it doesn’t pay enough to be the hero most of the time.
When being a "hero" means calling out the racism, corruption and your partners murdering an innocent person you dont need a pay raise to do that
True but that can’t be an excuse to not do this more organized and intelligent
That's not an excuse. To put it succinctly, my point atm is:
1) no matter how peaceful the vast majority (bc people aren't uniform and never ALL act in the same way) of the protests are, MSM is going to cover any violence from the protesters ad nauseam. We have citizen footage of cops smashing their Riot shields on a group of white people who look like they were praying. That stuff doesn't get covered like the violence of the protesters, and it likely won't ever be. Bc MSM is interwoven with and works to the goals of the existing power structure. No matter what, we're getting blamed.
2) Yes I would like us to be intelligent about how we protest. No I don't think intelligence and violence are mutually exclusive.
3) The inciting event for the protests were George Floyd's murder. But make no mistake, that's not the only underlying motivation now that people are out and demonstrating. The rage toward this corrupt economic structure is playing a huge part in what's going on. There's video of protesters saying "not this store, big chains only" and the group listens and moves on.
4) So asking the people demonstrating in honor of George Floyd, the people demonstrating anti-capitalism and the people who just bored and maybe want to get something nice if the opportunity arises to behave in a monolithic way isn't practical or really even doable.
i think its amazing that this forum cares more about whats going on than most artist

think you can say that about most forum are normal people in general
don't forget our gov decided to bail out f***ing cruiselines and airline companies before their own people
And some of the planes are still flying without passengers for...reasons
thats bc morons like this think if there isn't an outbreak in a couple days its fake
we won't see the effects of the protests until 2-3 weeks from now. cases lag behind 2 weeks and deaths lag behind even more
We'll see

why would you be against support of other countries just cause of our cops?

They really don’t,it’s just the right thing but these officers that witnessed that murder probably have so many people in their ear till the point it’s insane. These guys know what they witnessed but their police department is probably adamant that they want to fight this case just so they keep some bullshit brotherhood they think police have.
look at this...

What if they wanted everybody to protest to spread coronavirus if it even as bad as they say it is
Thought about THIS. And I'm sure Trump wouldn't mind if all of the democrats and "far left-wing radicals" got COVID and died. But it's mostly young people out from what I've seen, so say they get it, and accidentally spread it to their parents and boomer grandparents who are REALLY at risk. That's Trump's voting demographic so I don't get the end goal
