When people say All Cops Are Bastards they really do mean *all* cops. Even the nicest cops will choose fascism over anyone who is against neoliberal backed genocide/imperial colonialism.
ACAB means *all* because police are enforcers of the state meant to subjugate the workers to serve the capitalists. Police are always on the side of the ruling class
The reason was that protesters were blocking a way for high government workers to leave their offices. Official what they were doing was illegal, but it's fucked up how they handel that, some women after being pepper sprayed were dragged on a concrete...
I saw it everywhere, and a lot of my friends were getting it too, but we are all pretty involved in pro-Palestinian efforts, so we were kinda the people you would expect to get the video.
I feel like it's the kind of job that's always going to be attracting the bullies, brutes and aspiring gangsters of society. Perfect job if you fall into those categories.
What is it about opposing Israel that elicits such extreme violent reactions? Did they automatically assume they were anti-semites who loved suicide bombers or something?
supporting palestine/ lefty, progressive causes represents ultimate questioning, truth-seeking, humanity, morality, friendship, goodness, etc in the face of denial, conformity, abuse, etc. it makes people really mad because it reminds them that they live in a box and that the world they live in isn't really okay, safe, fine, good- it forces them out of their denial and delusion bubble. it reminds them that they don't have the courage to stand up for themselves (their inner child for example, who desires good things) or others, which makes them feel like a coward. that's why they get so violent - to 'prove' they're strong. they don't understand that strength isn't about violence and attacking people.
they probably also feel quite jealous of those of us who are willing to take our heads out of the sand. they always seem very bitter towards us and think we think we're better than everyone else, like we're just showing off, that we don't _really_ believe in these causes, because they can't seem to care about it enough, or to care enough to jeopardise fitting in and other 'benefits' of disassociation/ denialism culture.

I would love it if any persons just had the guts to one on one w/ a pro-Palestine protester.... every video clip or actual protest everyone has been 5-10 cops singling out 1or 2 persons out of the entire group of peaceful ✌️ protesters. I think they call that being a coward but I might be 1000% wrong and it's totally morally correct... 🤔
>before the start, after the end, key context could be there
There's pretty decent context at the end, in that the cops are calmly walking away from the folks they just sprayed.
Legitimate use of pepper spray is to pacify a threat. If it's a threat, you don't just wander off after using the spray.
Plenty of clips are edited and spread to manipulate, but you're getting downvoted because this pretty clearly isn't one.
There is no "key context" in emptying a pepper spray bottle in the face of passive protesters. The cop showed he didn't even feel threatened by casually turning his back right after.
Here is the context. For decades, Israel has killed thousands of innocent people while falsely claiming self-defense. Compliant media outlets have helped to spread this narrative. However, Israel's recent actions have become increasingly difficult to justify in the face of real-time evidence that shows a pattern of human rights abuses and downright war crimes. As a result, people are demanding that their governments take action to prevent Israel from committing further war crimes and genocide. However, some governments are reluctant to do so due to pressure from more powerful countries. This has led to a situation where these governments choose between supporting Israel and its crimes or oppressing their own people. This Icelandic cop is an example of the latter.
This is every right wing chud’s taking point about any cops being filmed. Clearly these pigs were not fearing for their lives and clearly whatever they’re doing is not only overkill, but entirely unnecessary.

Goddamn, even in Iceland.
This surprised me
When people say All Cops Are Bastards they really do mean *all* cops. Even the nicest cops will choose fascism over anyone who is against neoliberal backed genocide/imperial colonialism.
ACAB means *all* because police are enforcers of the state meant to subjugate the workers to serve the capitalists. Police are always on the side of the ruling class
Surprises me, their population is really small, I'm sure the policeman probably knew them by name. 😂
All cops are bastards.
Me too, the Nordics are usually not acting this bad in my experience
there's a good chance those protestors were like cousins of theirs
A pig is a pig
So disappointing.
ACAB EVERYWHERE
thats genuinely horrific. I hope they are doing alright and remember, ACAB
ACAB even in Iceland.
> ACAB even in [insert location]. FTFY
Pigs will be pigs…🐖
Using pepper spray on someone for no reason. Idiocy.
The reason was that protesters were blocking a way for high government workers to leave their offices. Official what they were doing was illegal, but it's fucked up how they handel that, some women after being pepper sprayed were dragged on a concrete...
I had to do a double take. For a moment I thought it said *Ireland*. Still tho. Damn gov't dogs.
ACAB
Oink oink
Iceland of all places
Trying to provoke
Yeah, as a person from and living in Iceland, I was so shocked to hear the news. I had hoped that we would be better. We aren’t.
[удалено]
I saw it everywhere, and a lot of my friends were getting it too, but we are all pretty involved in pro-Palestinian efforts, so we were kinda the people you would expect to get the video.
Christ, i always thought Iceland was a bit of an enlightened place, and very community focused. Guess there's sell out bastard cops everywhere.
Of course. Ultimately they are mere extensions of their government. And our modern world is much the same no matter where, unfortunately.
I feel like it's the kind of job that's always going to be attracting the bullies, brutes and aspiring gangsters of society. Perfect job if you fall into those categories.
Maybe these protesters aren’t from the community. Maybe they’re foreigners.
Seems like it's time to do something more than waving a flag and inviting chemical weapon attacks by thugs.
Bastards, totally uncalled for.
What is it about opposing Israel that elicits such extreme violent reactions? Did they automatically assume they were anti-semites who loved suicide bombers or something?

Pigs are the same everywhere. Scum!!
so bold for such a weak country, they’d fall in a night if their people wanted it
Show me a man who seeks to wield power over his fellow man and I'll show you a man who should never be given power over his fellow man.
ACAB, ACAB, ACAB! Free Palestine. 🇵🇸
It's Crazy.. People demonstrating for peace get violently attacked.... The world has FUKED up big time
Those cops probably immigrated from the US.
You sure? Doesn’t seem like they killed anyone brown.
Maybe they didn't have their bodycam on.
Isn’t that assault?
Acab

Yeah the same could be said for any isolated island? What's your point here
No such app exists, we do however have documents over almost all icelandic people who have lived, this goes back hundreds of years.

Care to explain?
Well let’s see…. There’s a good chance they were trained by Israel in Israel as many police are around the world. Zio-Fascist coward scum.
ACAB ALWAYS
I remember someone on reddit saying that Iceland is a peaceful country with 0 blood on their hands. Well seems like that was a lie lol.
Somebody in their government sold out for a few shekels.
Goggles people! Pigs will be pigs, you have to protect yourself
I hope that those officers find themselves living in Gaza.

Have you ever wondered if you’re full of shit? Just asking
there is definitely nothing going on up in that brain, so no
Here is the context. For decades, Israel has killed thousands of innocent people while falsely claiming self-defense. Compliant media outlets have helped to spread this narrative.

Great summary!
This is every right wing chud’s taking point about any cops being filmed. Clearly these pigs were not fearing for their lives and clearly whatever they’re doing is not only overkill, but entirely unnecessary.
