Those non-violent protests shook them so bad they wanted to charge non-violent Quaker protestors with terrorism.

      Target practice. Did you see the video where they shot the teenager standing still on a hill doing nothing? The shot him in the head with a rubber bullet, causing concussion and permanent damage. The officer high fives another officer right after.

      The kid was literally just standing there doing nothing. A fucking child was used as target practice by adult civil servants.

      Only liberal protesters get harassed. If you have a gun, they hand you a bottle of water.

      There isnt a secret group of evil lizard people planning out society. The evil in our society comes from the ways our oppressive systems shape people.

      Our culture and systems believe(or at least act like) it is perfectly fine for a police officer/rich person to do murder/social murder.

      So many people base their morals on what is legal/what the state penalizes, meaning if a police officer’s or ceo’s actions result in the death of innocent people, it is perfectly okay because they never get in any real trouble. This normalization of violent/oppressive acts done by the state and the rich means that more police (and more rich people) are going to feel okay doing shitty things.
