@icedquinn@mewmew@anornymorse@hector@union with 800+ so-far-documented instances of news people attacked, shot, arrested etc + n many other random people targeted for filming and stingray etc use to monitor communications / record attendance, would be disappointed if they didn't say something. maybe can dislike the phrasing, but
@union@anornymorse@hector@icedquinn what's wrong with racial justice, economic justice, or environmental justice? all of those seem like good things to strive for
@union@icedquinn@anornymorse@hector what's wrong with what's posted there? it basically says "police surveillance bad"you really wanna give up your rights to freedom and privacy just to own the libs?
@icedquinn@anornymorse@hector@mewmew@union like when you have peoples' fingers shot off for holding a cell phone and people pre-arrested ("for unrelated reasons") following unauthorised sns posts, things are getting bad regardless of whether some of the people pushing the protest side are doing it for money / a half-truth skewed narrativelike have been tens of thousands of people involved in protesting, and not all of them are "Group I Dislike"; can disagree with that stuff without cheering for police state
@icedquinn@anornymorse@hector@mewmew@union of recorded physical attacks on journalists, 80%+ were police-perpetrated and the rest were split between "protest" and "counter protest", leaning towards the latter (and all the rest, shootings, arrests, etc were of course police-only"yeh, but X" isn't the point, though; tens of thousands of people, many of whom are out there because "you beat up / maimed my friends", getting beaten and maimed in turn. it's not just your boogyman; too big for that
