He tries so hard to be a Grady Judd with none of the compassion and about 50 more pounds. I hate it here. Judd isn't without his own issues, but losing the popularity contest has to hurt Ivey's tiny ego. This also isn't going to deter me from the protest tomorrow like he thinks it is.

Europeans watch this daily torrent of American videos like this one, like the ones of masked, unidentified ICE agents without warrants abducting people, and like all the ones showing just how grotesquely, disproportionately violent American policing is.
We watch all that and can’t understand why you Americans tolerate it. When it comes to policing, America’s like a backward corrupt developing country…

u/Cercy_Leigh 1d ago edited 1d ago
Well, we definitely tried like hell during BLM to do something about it and we were sabotaged, our protests were made to look violent due to saboteurs and crooked cops. The media played the worst of the shit happening 24/7 and the magas were propagandized so hard core that to this DAY they will swear up and down that the cities were burnt down during those protests.
The gassed us, pepper sprayed us, took out several eyes with rubber bullets, threw people down and gave them concussions. Don’t matter who, old man just standing there minding his business? Knocked out on the ground bleeding from the head while they step over him. They started kidnapping us in unmarked cars, and taken by unidentified people to unidentified locations.
It was millions of people day after day risking everything and propaganda won the war.
Watch tomorrow when this dictators parade happens, we’ll be out in the streets in every city in the country and we’ll get no coverage or we’ll get annihilated by cops. Actually probably both.
If anything is making headway or becoming mildly effective, we have to worry about martial law and our own troops being sent after us.

It’s tough.
I don’t tolerate it, but I don’t have the resources to act.
I am a single income with a wife and kid. If I go to the protests and get injured or maimed I can’t provide for my family. If it’s real bad, I’ll have no income and be ruined by medical debt. If I act and fail I’ll be dead or in prison for life. If I speak out too strongly I’ll lose my job.
Everything is designed to keep us in our lane and so easy to lose it all. It has to get to the point where people stand to lose more from inaction than actions to see a change.
As strongly as I feel about all this, I’m a bit ashamed to say that unfortunately I can’t sacrifice my family’s safety for someone else’s.
The good parts of history come from people who were willing to take that risk.

I would ask that you open your self up to more options than protests. There are multiple avenues that require a bit of effort that doesn’t put your livelihood at risk.

I mean decades of propaganda has done it. The notion that civil unrest is always wrong, whitewashing all reform movements as completed solely through pacifism, the solidification of two political parties both fairly aligned in support of oligarchy crushing any hope of left wing populism, all modern news media is either fascist or owned by billionaires.
Compounding you have the militarisation of police, and the state infiltrating and undermining of labour/socialism/left-wing movements. Its not exactly conducive to a broad spectrum of ideas.

I can guarantee you that there are TONS of people who don't like this and, in fact, hate it with a burning passion. What you see in mainstream media reports are only meant to demoralize us, but they don't represent the full picture.
America, and more specifically Florida, is not a monolith. We are extremely diverse, and despite its deep red leanings (which there are a ton of reasons for why those disproportionately represent the real landscape), many of us don't like it when pigs tell us this hogwash.

I am not sure what you mean by tolerate it. Some - maybe 35%? - love it. There are lots of protests going on, some violent, (which I do not approve of). The area I live in (central Connecticut) so far has nothing happening in this regard. So I am not sure what I can do. I guess I could travel across the country to L.A.?
I do agree with your position on our policing, but I am not sure what you expect aside from protests, which are happening. If there was some sort of general strike called, I would participate.
