@andreas @Elfie Foreigners opinions about American mean less than nothing. Worry about your own country.

@design_RG But yeah Doctorow is a cool guy. I loved his series on Marcus Yallow.

Did you know he has a account, too? @doctorow @pluralistic

@design_RG I agree but this misses the fact that owns a monopoly, and they can effectively remove your internet free speech (as we saw with ).

If things were less monopolized, I'd agree.

@realcaseyrollins I think there is both a large continent of agitators pushing for an arbitrary pivot into the suburbs, but also an unspoken resistance to the idea knowing that such a move would result in loss of life and serious governmental crackdown.

@OrganicNectar96@mstdn.social Huh

I've seen a few scenes like this, and they have me confused. Is there a legal reason they're doing this? At night I can understand. It's curfew, and being outside after sundown is illegal.

This, not so much.

Have rioters really said "the suburbs are next"?

If so, scary. I live in the 'burbs.

Riotinfo/Riotnews list; CWing because the post is long and will probably look heckin' ugly in all y'all's timelines

English version of Lyudmila's toot -- which I FULLY agree with. Take Note Jeff.

"This goes to @paula_ruiz. You are either Anti-fascist or Fascist. Those who look to the side in face of Fascism convert into its accomplices, thereby becoming a potential Fascist."

Muchas gracias, Lyud!

Act normal-ish. That way you are acting silly enough 😍❤️

@freemo He'd literally order the officers to shoot first and see if that works

Also I think tear gas should just be sprayed from the skies. Non-lethal, yet hits all the protesters.

@realcaseyrollins it's just a joke i don't give a fuck, i am maximally non-invested in any political narratives exactly for the reasons you describe

@augustus
While this is a good gesture, seeing heavy content all the time isn't great for people's . I'm seeing politics driving some of my friends from sm as we speak.

@realcaseyrollins @djsumdog @alyx Doing a warning shot means you've discharged your firearm without it being necessary to do so, by definition. It might be pragmatic, and save lives, but it's legal a problem which is why civilians are told to only shoot to kill.
