@realcaseyrollins @matrix China's very effective at suppressing protests before they start because they control all the media and have a formidable surveillance apparatus.

I wanna lit a fire
You give me the light
You give me the light

Also my left arm has been quivering and shaking all evening yesterday and I still can't completely keep it still while drinking.

Anyone else know what might cause this?

I had originally thought it was a blood sugar thing (as it has been in years past) but two meals in and I'm still dealing with it.

The people involved in the death of got charged last night!

I'm guessing today is a celebration for another step towards justice for the rest of y'all peeps, right? :fists_raised:

I know it is for me.

@realcaseyrollins Idk. They're the ones who blocked the highway going through AVL the other day (55–65 MPH speed limits) and then complained that they got hit by a car.

@kino But PSL doesn't support violence tho, right? Like I doubt the guy who threw the firecracker was on their side.

Man the violent people really ruin it for everyone.

#GeorgeFloyd 's daughter saying "Daddy changed the world"... not yet, but its about to (I hope)

lads I got up a pixelfed instance that exists

@wolfie Yeah, I agree. But that's framing, and I'm trying to keep the video descriptions neutral.

(Adding my bias to the description might bias viewers before they even see it, IMHO)

@realcaseyrollins I actually watched that live. Honestly, that could be rephrased as “Reporter not overly well marked as such standing really close to police line, gets hit with pepper spray until they identified as press”

At the time, I was thinking why aren’t they wearing vests that say press on them or something. I imagine there’s probably some reason for it but.. yeah

@kino Super cowardly move on the person who threw the firework. A shame, since most people clearly were there peacefully with no intent on attacking.

It could be edited to make it appear that the police just sprayed the tear gas for no reason, so I guess it was all worth it.

P.S. what is PSL?

@Talloran He is the mayor, I think. Nobody really likes him that much, although he's been around for several terms. Up until now it's been mainly the who have been criticizing him.
