Ok maybe I missed something, um; I comprehend that dhs/ice are generally hired for their heavy psychopath profile, I was additionally saying that this action was likely at the direction of a superior, specifically. That’s the joke. That’s it.
As in, this is intentional agitation meant to further foment a violent response, declare martial law, try to cancel elections, and so forth. Guess there’s no reading between the lines here though.
Anyone wanna take bets on paid actor?
edit: I’m saying they’re agitating on purpose here and I’m downvoted? Do I need to spam /s next time?!
edit 2: Looking at response/comment chain makes me fucking ill. Didn’t realize lemmy had been completely invaded by astroturfers and russian bots. And at this time we’re up to 30 fascist sympathizers! Just, ugh.
The ringer, dude! Its my dirty undies!
GIGN, SAS, KSK, and any other non US special forces, I believe you have just received a new mission!

Yes I think the point is just a shit ton more than the human brain, generally.
Yea it seems like a lot people don’t want to face the fact that US politics are a theatre drama. And of course they also presume that you’re implying that means one shouldn’t vote, indeed a dangeous (and irritating) assumption. I believe one should vote based on a politicians actions and character, and try to notice when they’re bought and performing. The preponderance of evidence that anyone with any power is bought out is defeaning.
Yes I understand and would not discourage voting. Its currently the only way to have any influence at all. Whole system needs to be turned over for anything to meaningfully change; vote as much as possible and get thoroughly educated, just don’t expect politicians to do anything helpful when they’re already owned by money.
The sooner every American realizes that there is NO ONE in the government with the desire and the power to help us, the better.
Edit: VOTE and be educated, but don’t expect anyone therein to be accountable and reponsible. Get ANGRY about that.
They never left, they are just horse pills now with unclear labeling.

Wifi is weak in the work bathroom. Double posted and didn’t notice :P *And I replied to the wrong comment!
Replace the word weirdo with terrorist and I’m with you.
Oh my, yes, you are correct. That was sort of knee jerk, as opposed to it being the reporting party’s burden somehow. I simply cannot understand the legal gymnastics needed to punish your customers for this sort of thing; I’m tired but I feel like this is not exactly an uncommon occurrence. Anyways let us all learn from my mistake and do not be rash and curtail your own freedoms.
Yes I’m seeing a propensity for people to get stuck on one end of this spectrum or the other, and it seems to be good at inhibiting judgement or leading to some extremist belief. And unable to separate historical events from current ones and appropriate reactions therein, poisoning any dispassionate or rational discussion. This is a good example: https://lemmy.world/post/41392385?scrollToComments=true
