    Attempting to overthrow the government, without a shred of evidence for the stated reasons, is not the same as people flipping the fuck out because they’ve watch, first hand, yet another civilian get executed in the streets, by a government official, with their own fucking eyes. You’re on the wrong side of your own argument.

      Criminals arent civilians and killing people while destroying countless small businesses in the name of a drug addict criminal is worse than a few people peacefully protesting. No one apparently had the balls to bring this to your attention until today, youre welcome. When time has past, you will find you are on the wrong side of history. You promote extremism, and degrade free speech and peaceful protest. Sad, but there are more ppl like me in the world, we just typically keep quiet.

        No one, criminal or not, are legally allowed to be executed by police. Hence the prison sentence for Derek, which would have never happened without the spotlight.

        No one rioted in the name of a criminal, they rioted in the name of government overreach. The history of the victims of that overreach is entirely irrelevant.

        Show me where I’ve promoted extremism? No where do I discount the violence of BLM, violence is not good, but it’s the expected reaction to people seeing unjust violence first hand, especially from the government. Where do I advocate for censorship? You watch raw footage of Jan 6th and call that peaceful? These people were arrested for assaulting police officers and breaking into a government building where every top level official was currently sitting. It’s on thousands of cameras for all to see. Bragged about by the people that did it. You know, EVIDENCE. That’s not censorship, that’s bare-minimum law and order. There are a lot of ppl like you in the world but not more, and you never shut the fuck up, or make any points worth arguing, yet here I sit wasting my time because I’d rather not see the country fall to brain-dead parrots.

          Then comply and listen to the cops. Youll survive. People are stubborn and dumb. Police dont just run around killing people. If you believe they do, you are a victim of propaganda, and should learn to think for yourself.

        Hey so I’m going to block you, but I’m trying to figure out if you’re still able to see it after I block you. So if you can see this can you reply just like a thumbs up or something.
