    Fuck, DC is gonna burn…

    Police response to the protests of the murder of Karon Hylton-Brown was heavy handed to say the least. With the upcoming protests already planned, this was either completely tone deaf and ignorant of the significance of the pardon. Or could be an antagonizing effort to show “riots” to justify more police violence and show the “left” as violent extremists.

    Shit like this is how we get a Reichstag fire type event to allow a concentration of power and a justification for martial law or worse.

      They will first wait until some horrific crime or terrorist action is commited to declare martial law on that, then try to rig the 2026 midterms to get Orbán-style supermajority (get ready for zero adspace and social media reach for the Democrats), then comes the reichstag fire.

        I’ve edited my comment to add more context. I don’t know if that’s still your sentiment to my post.

      They shouldn’t riot then, very easy. Own Trump with this one simple trick.

        What benefit does a satirical account have when the content is just repeating the talking points of those you’re satirizing?
