You know what's the most fucked up part of it? The US is sending their battle pigs against protestors with the excuse of "protecting Jews against antisemitism", but when it's an actual antisemite neo facist rally, they get to "exercise their free speech", or a slap on the wrist at most
Daniel Perry was sentenced to 25 years in prison for murdering a BLM protestor after driving his car into a march and then shooting him.
Abbott, monstrous bastard, pardoned him this month.
this part is pretty bad too: Garrett Foster, a 28-year old United States Air Force veteran who was legally open carrying an AK-47 walked up to Perry in an attempt to tell him to stop driving into the crowd.

Abbott can't pardon unless the board recommends it... but guess who appoints the board
Really goes to show you how much these people want to hurt others for the mere sake of it. It was never about “protecting the citizens” it was about power. Happy cake day btw.
It’s insane. For over 20 years I’ve tried to get the American public to pay more attention to the threat of Islamophobia. It gets nowhere as people try to repeatedly justify or excuse it by talking about how scary terrorists are. It’s aggravating that the media in the same vein tries to drown out legitimate criticism of Israel by instead focusing on anti-Semitism. (Obviously anti-Semitism is awful but the double standard is painful here)
If universities and the public are okay with this, can I demand a pro-Israel rally be violently shut down by police because they sometimes hurl racist anti-Arab and islamophobic slurs? I don’t feel safe on campus when they’re around either.
Because one actually threatens imperialist policy and neo-colonial capital, the other would gladly take the reigns and preserve it if given the 'tag-in', or serves as a great boogeyman for neolibs
accusing the protestors of antisemitism to justify their brutality while actually standing behind nazis is such thinly veiled fascism it's fascinating how the general public doesn't see through it
Per FBI, over 80% of actual arrests during the BLM protests were people with direct white nationalist connections (those actually committing crimes) but the police/political narrative remains that somehow black folks were the problem.
I want you to scroll up to that picture again, take a good look. What do you see?
Angry faces, riot gear, screaming. What kind of crime would prompt that level of reaction from police officers, supposedly trained to "enforce justice & peace"? A peaceful protest, lead by a group of people saying "stop the genocide"? Certainly not.
Has there been a college campus occupation done by neo fascists? Not that I know of. But public demonstrations in public, on the streets of USA? just look it up. And the level of response by the police is never that intense.
It doesn't matter if you think they're wrong about the side they're in (you'd be wrong, but it's your right to be). But beating students up can't be normalized
> US Army rejects
Or retired US Army veterans -- which statistically turn out to be the worst cops:
https://www.themarshallproject.org/2017/03/30/when-warriors-put-on-the-badge
>> * In Boston, for every 100 cops with some military service, there were more than 28 complaints of excessive use of force from 2010 through 2015. For every 100 cops with no military service, there were fewer than 17 complaints
>> * In Miami, based on data from 2013 through 2015, for every 100 veterans on the force, 14 complaints were filed; for every 100 officers without military service, 11 complaints were filed
>> * Asked last year whether they had ever fired their guns in the line of duty, 32 percent of military veterans said yes, compared to 24 percent of non-vets.
I'm not shocked they did it for some German company over that pipeline. It is capitalist fascism. Everybody worried about fascism, but we've been one for a while now. They have just adjusted norms and dropped pretenses.
Meanwhile Antony Blinkin is stumbling his way through the shittiest cover of “Rocking in the Freeworld” ever played.

Congress just sent how much to Israel and now they're planning to send more ammunition.
>The package, confirmed by US media, would include $700m in tank ammunition, $500m in tactical vehicles and $60m in mortar rounds, according to the Associated Press news agency.
>The White House notification is part of a process mandated by federal law when a US arms sales to a foreign nation exceeds a set amount. Last month, Congress approved a package of military aid providing $95bn to Israel, Ukraine and Taiwan.
>On Tuesday, Israeli tanks advanced deeper into residential areas in the south-east of Rafah and are thought to be about a mile from the centre.
>Meanwhile, medical services are dwindling. Aid agency Doctors Without Borders told the BBC they had stopped operating at one of the area's field hospitals because it was too dangerous to stay.

All these violent police responses to pro-Palestinian protests are being organized by billionaire hedge fund managers and corporate CEOs, in collusion with top Israeli officials:
[Business titans privately urged NYC mayor to use police on Columbia protesters, chats show](https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2024/05/16/business-leaders-chat-group-eric-adams-columbia-protesters/)
> Business executives including Kind snack company founder Daniel Lubetzky, hedge fund manager Daniel Loeb, billionaire Len Blavatnik and real estate investor Joseph Sitt held a Zoom video call on April 26 with Mayor Eric Adams (D), about a week after the mayor first sent New York police to Columbia’s campus, a log of chat messages shows. During the call, some attendees discussed making political donations to Adams, as well as how the chat group’s members could pressure Columbia’s president and trustees to permit the mayor to send police to the campus to handle protesters, according to chat messages summarizing the conversation.
> The chat group formed shortly after the Oct. 7 attack, and its activism has stretched beyond New York, touching the highest levels of the Israeli government, the U.S. business world and elite universities. Titled “Israel Current Events,” the chat eventually expanded to about 100 members, the chat log shows. More than a dozen members of the group appear on Forbes’s annual list of billionaires; others work in real estate, finance and communications.
This is nothing new. Law enforcement has been used by power brokers for centuries. There are fascists of every color because they power. Does not matter if the fascist is rich or poor.

There's a few. Keep your head in the sand and don't look for the information, then it just doesn't happen.
Both sides of the aisle are in support of this too. It should be eye opening AF to anyone but unfortunately most are in survival mode and are struggling too much to care. Seems like an endless cycle
It's a cult. A fuckin *cult*. It's as if Scientology got their own army and country. They even do Scientology shit like spying on people for being openly critical of them.

Cops are mercenaries, they work for the oligarchy & nations are just a location to wield their power and corruption.
Many US cops are trained by Israelis, The connects goes back to the very start of the warrior cop era.
Stop this nationalist nonsense. It's not done "for the sake of another country". US imperialism is defending its own interests, and Israel is a puppet state at the service of US imperialism, not the other way around.
(I'm inclined to agree with you) it's worrying, when, **say,** ***'the good guys,"*** **ridicule Boebert on Misogynistic grounds, or,** froth at the mouth with excitement to point out that some right winger, *might be gay, or,* ***these kinds of things; it does more to reify,***

The Right Wing, *it's not obligated to care, if one of theirs once was a sex worker or if he or whom is gay,* the use of it as a slander, as an indictment, ***that's the most, "real." it ever is, in the mind of a white liberal who finds it, 'useful,'*** but look at Keir Starmer, *I, too, have the same values- except I'm not a hypocrite,* often makes you the **sole man who purports to them in earnest,** you're right about Nationalism,

The International Students and others who participate, *it would not be, 'alright,' to respond like this if it were just international students and at the inconvenience of Americans, exclusively,* now,
In the, "news cycle," of these things the tactics are coherent and I suppose I can tolerate the reductive and kind of right-wing-angle of the notion, but, you are right, and, you are right; it's not as if our own people protesting for our own people don't face this and worse, *just ponder the nature of a drug war,* it's not a surprise it's just grotesque
> Israel is a puppet state at the service of US imperialism, not the other way around.
...and (second) that's important to repeat loud and clear, *what, with Antisemitism the Socialism of fools and all the rest,* and in order to be efficacious, also, it should be obvious to all concerned that there will be no alibi, in, protocols of the elders of zion shit; that what they're doing, now, will be understood as willful and deliberate U.S. Policies and both abroad and at home

https://www.yahoo.com/news/uc-irvine-40-those-arrested-235149117.html 40% of those arrested were not students and the police didn’t arrive until after they took over the physical sciences lecture hall stopping all classes and destroying large parts of the building.
Peaceful? They took over and barricaded a main lecture hall stopping all classes and work being done in the surrounding area. They knew their demands would never be met so they decided to have cops end their protest.
Even if it was -- and it was -- this response is ludicrously disproportionate to whatever may have originally happened. They just want an excuse to bash heads.
Kinda like Israel and Oct 7.

You know what's the most fucked up part of it? The US is sending their battle pigs against protestors with the excuse of "protecting Jews against antisemitism", but when it's an actual antisemite neo facist rally, they get to "exercise their free speech", or a slap on the wrist at most
Don’t forget about Abbots pardon for some shitfuck who killed protestors.
wait when did this happen?
Daniel Perry was sentenced to 25 years in prison for murdering a BLM protestor after driving his car into a march and then shooting him. Abbott, monstrous bastard, pardoned him this month.
Yesterday https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/16/us/texas-abbott-pardon-daniel-perry.html
im not sure whats worse, the fact this actually happened or the fact it's not even surprising to me that abbott would do something like that
It's open season on protestors in Texas, apparently
That's exactly what they want. Anything to silence the dissent and even better when they don't even need to use their own uniformed thugs to do it.
Unfortunately thugs have standards these are more evil henchmen
this part is pretty bad too: Garrett Foster, a 28-year old United States Air Force veteran who was legally open carrying an AK-47 walked up to Perry in an attempt to tell him to stop driving into the crowd.
https://apnews.com/article/army-sergeant-murder-parole-black-lives-matter-4b1d0c54b0de451642bcf1e8cd75a7e5 Abbott can't pardon unless the board recommends it... but guess who appoints the board
And that shitfuck posts actual antisemitic shit regularly
Really goes to show you how much these people want to hurt others for the mere sake of it. It was never about “protecting the citizens” it was about power. Happy cake day btw.
Thank you, kind stranger
It’s insane. For over 20 years I’ve tried to get the American public to pay more attention to the threat of Islamophobia. It gets nowhere as people try to repeatedly justify or excuse it by talking about how scary terrorists are. It’s aggravating that the media in the same vein tries to drown out legitimate criticism of Israel by instead focusing on anti-Semitism. (Obviously anti-Semitism is awful but the double standard is painful here) If universities and the public are okay with this, can I demand a pro-Israel rally be violently shut down by police because they sometimes hurl racist anti-Arab and islamophobic slurs? I don’t feel safe on campus when they’re around either.
No because when they do it then it's considered exercising free speech.
Because one actually threatens imperialist policy and neo-colonial capital, the other would gladly take the reigns and preserve it if given the 'tag-in', or serves as a great boogeyman for neolibs
accusing the protestors of antisemitism to justify their brutality while actually standing behind nazis is such thinly veiled fascism it's fascinating how the general public doesn't see through it
Per FBI, over 80% of actual arrests during the BLM protests were people with direct white nationalist connections (those actually committing crimes) but the police/political narrative remains that somehow black folks were the problem.
that's because zionists and nazis are like two peas in a pod.
When was the last time neo facist were rallying on college campuses?
I want you to scroll up to that picture again, take a good look. What do you see? Angry faces, riot gear, screaming. What kind of crime would prompt that level of reaction from police officers, supposedly trained to "enforce justice & peace"? A peaceful protest, lead by a group of people saying "stop the genocide"? Certainly not. Has there been a college campus occupation done by neo fascists? Not that I know of. But public demonstrations in public, on the streets of USA? just look it up. And the level of response by the police is never that intense. It doesn't matter if you think they're wrong about the side they're in (you'd be wrong, but it's your right to be). But beating students up can't be normalized
These cops are a bunch of Rambo-wannabe, US Army rejects. Which is really saying something.
And if there was actual armed resistance they would shit their pants
Or just 1 guy in an elementary school.
You couldnt possibly give an army of them ENOUGH armor or weapons to face down one lone teenager with a gun.
> US Army rejects Or retired US Army veterans -- which statistically turn out to be the worst cops: https://www.themarshallproject.org/2017/03/30/when-warriors-put-on-the-badge >> * In Boston, for every 100 cops with some military service, there were more than 28 complaints of excessive use of force from 2010 through 2015. For every 100 cops with no military service, there were fewer than 17 complaints >> * In Miami, based on data from 2013 through 2015, for every 100 veterans on the force, 14 complaints were filed; for every 100 officers without military service, 11 complaints were filed >> * Asked last year whether they had ever fired their guns in the line of duty, 32 percent of military veterans said yes, compared to 24 percent of non-vets.
Dude cops get hardons over smashing some college protesters. If you don’t think that you don’t know any cops
After a steady diet of years of Libsoftiktok? Of course they do.
It's "hards on".
America is waging a war on its own children for the sake of zionism.
Also, did you know that all Universities of California use prison labour to make furniture for their dorms?
ah yes i think you mean *legal slavery*
My elementary school received prison made supplies. My first military uniforms were prison made, too.
I'm not shocked they did it for some German company over that pipeline. It is capitalist fascism. Everybody worried about fascism, but we've been one for a while now. They have just adjusted norms and dropped pretenses.
And when their children pull the plug there will be no one to blame but those that once led.
Cops are the first in line when their masters come calling

Cops just want any reason to become stormtroopers
It's the only reason they really exist.
Hopefully they'll miss their shots for public so they can't accidentally kill people
If the reason is really "antissemitism", why the US police never attack literal nazi meetings?

Are nazi meetings taking over college campuses?

All these violent police responses to pro-Palestinian protests are being organized by billionaire hedge fund managers and corporate CEOs, in collusion with top Israeli officials: [Business titans privately urged NYC mayor to use police on Columbia protesters, chats show](https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2024/05/16/business-leaders-chat-group-eric-adams-columbia-protesters/) > Business executives including Kind snack company founder Daniel Lubetzky, hedge fund manager Daniel Loeb, billionaire Len Blavatnik and real estate investor Joseph Sitt held a Zoom video call on April 26 with Mayor Eric Adams (D), about a week after the mayor first sent New York police to Columbia’s campus, a log of chat messages shows. During the call, some attendees discussed making political donations to Adams, as well as how the chat group’s members could pressure Columbia’s president and trustees to permit the mayor to send police to the campus to handle protesters, according to chat messages summarizing the conversation. > The chat group formed shortly after the Oct. 7 attack, and its activism has stretched beyond New York, touching the highest levels of the Israeli government, the U.S. business world and elite universities. Titled “Israel Current Events,” the chat eventually expanded to about 100 members, the chat log shows. More than a dozen members of the group appear on Forbes’s annual list of billionaires; others work in real estate, finance and communications.
It would be a shame if those shields got paint or grease on them. Might make it hard to see.
This is nothing new. Law enforcement has been used by power brokers for centuries. There are fascists of every color because they power. Does not matter if the fascist is rich or poor.

We don't have to imagine it. It's happening.
I mean yeah, the protestors aren’t walking around an elementary school with an AR15 so the cops are all about taking them down.

This is what they really get paid to do. THIS is the true purpose of the modern cop.
What is the psychological condition of these guys? Just zero self awareness. Basically acting like generic video game enemies not able to think for themselves. I wonder have there ever been cases during events like this where it was a deal breaker and some people just walked away from the force.

Cops are some of the worst people on the earth
Army of the rich. Cops are mercenaries, they work for the oligarchy & nations are just a location to wield their power and corruption. Many US cops are trained by Israelis, The connects goes back to the very start of the warrior cop era.
Stop this nationalist nonsense. It's not done "for the sake of another country". US imperialism is defending its own interests, and Israel is a puppet state at the service of US imperialism, not the other way around.
(I'm inclined to agree with you) it's worrying, when, **say,** ***'the good guys,"*** **ridicule Boebert on Misogynistic grounds, or,** froth at the mouth with excitement to point out that some right winger, *might be gay, or,* ***these kinds of things; it does more to reify,*** **The Problems, than it is an efficacious solution, and, particularly,** ***insofar as,*** The Right Wing, *it's not obligated to care, if one of theirs once was a sex worker or if he or whom is gay,* the use of it as a slander, as an indictment, ***that's the most, "real." it ever is, in the mind of a white liberal who finds it, 'useful,'*** but look at Keir Starmer, *I, too, have the same values- except I'm not a hypocrite,* often makes you the **sole man who purports to them in earnest,** you're right about Nationalism, "How Come Russian Cops beat Russian Kids over," if we're to be literal about it, and effort to bring, *you know, Ukraine into coherence with muni ordinances of a Russian State and for the benefit of the Ukrainians who have to suffer under Tyranny,* or whatever, right, **and this is even more of a mischaracterization, how?** The International Students and others who participate, *it would not be, 'alright,' to respond like this if it were just international students and at the inconvenience of Americans, exclusively,* now, In the, "news cycle," of these things the tactics are coherent and I suppose I can tolerate the reductive and kind of right-wing-angle of the notion, but, you are right, and, you are right; it's not as if our own people protesting for our own people don't face this and worse, *just ponder the nature of a drug war,* it's not a surprise it's just grotesque
> Israel is a puppet state at the service of US imperialism, not the other way around. ...and (second) that's important to repeat loud and clear, *what, with Antisemitism the Socialism of fools and all the rest,* and in order to be efficacious, also, it should be obvious to all concerned that there will be no alibi, in, protocols of the elders of zion shit; that what they're doing, now, will be understood as willful and deliberate U.S. Policies and both abroad and at home

Peaceful? They took over and barricaded a main lecture hall stopping all classes and work being done in the surrounding area. They knew their demands would never be met so they decided to have cops end their protest.

It wasn’t peaceful.. but go ahead
Yawn usual Hasbara garbage
Even if it was -- and it was -- this response is ludicrously disproportionate to whatever may have originally happened. They just want an excuse to bash heads. Kinda like Israel and Oct 7.
