General Politics Discussion VII [ARCHIVED] • Page 842

there really has been a shift in the way people are perceiving looting and rioting and I think it has to do with how we're more conscious of inequality and how wealthy the 1% and corporations are.

 

Okay I’m officially scared now

 

I was about to go to bed and now I really wish I did without reading that tweet. Holy fucking shit

 

Aw man don't get the Arbys guys


For real I'm all for burning some shit but they also gotta remember we're in a pandemic and the people there need access to food and shit hah. Keep some shit standing, guys!

 

Would be cool if some national guard just refuse to deploy if that happens.

 

Medical workers are going to have a really rough time with all of this on top of the virus. And now the spread of the virus is likely to get worse. Fuck.

 

Yeah, burning down the police station rules, but just going after businesses that have nothing to do with it and are just serving a community that is struggling seems, not productive

 

jesus christ that Trump tweet.

How can anyone support that asshole? I really don't understand it

 

i've seen countless tweets from MN people reminding people to destroy corporate stores/chains, not local businesses.

 

we are on the verge of a civil war

 

I was saying this earlier. It’s unfolding right in front of us.

 

Does anyone have a list for the best feeds/accounts to follow what’s going on in Minneapolis? I’m in NE so I’m relatively far from what’s going on but I’m hoping to keep updated as well as figure out the best ways I can help. I need to work tomorrow so I can’t be out but if there’s places to donate/send supplies I’d love that info too. I’m aware of MFF and BVC but if other orgs need help I want to contribute what I can.

 

President of the US just threatened to kill more black people to stop people protesting the senseless killing of a black person

We made it

 

What is the other building that’s on fire that looks like it’s 3 or so buildings down from the police station?

 

They’re gassing protesters in Phoenix and it was peaceful

 

I didn’t think it was possible for trump to say something that could disgust me more than defending neo nazis. He wants people to be murdered.

 

get them all

 

God when Bill Simmons is saying something I agree with that’s how I know this year sucks

 

could still very well happen tonight, or definitely this weekend if there are no charges
