90s Solo Cup posted:Geez....I forgot about that aspect. Reading further through the twitter thread shows the kid's under the care of another family that hopes to adopt him, so that's a silver lining in a hosed up cloud, I guess? Dude, once you look around the internet for what those fucks did to that kid, you just want to tie them to chairs and beat them with loving mallets. They tormented that kid for instagram likes and youtube bucks. While they've got sponsorships and are making huge dollars, she's got a video of her on the beach with a cartier bracelet, saying that 500 dollar a month speech therapist is too expensive, so they are going to get one that is 70 dollars a month. They duct tape his hands for sucking his thumbs. They make videos of them feeding him lemons and let the other children torment him. They mock him on their videos, and it's quite clear that he has grown to hate cameras. They made months worth of videos without him in them, and curated all the comments to eliminate questions about him. They'd already dumped him at an orphanage. The other family fostering him is just a happy coincidence, they fuckin' abandoned that poor kid and continued to profit off of him. The more you look at it, the more loving disgraceful it gets. She used to be a registered nurse for like, a week, but was fired because she assaulted a pregnant woman by smashing a cart into her at work. He has a youtube channel about detailing cars. They are loaded and had all the time and resources to look after this kid and they just tormented the poor little bastard.

Godholio posted:Nah. I actually was hoping there was some kind of federal capital punishment charge that didn't require death, but couldn't find one. Treason, espionage, being a drug kingpin, being a drug kingpin and ordering or advising the death of a witness, juror, official or family member of the same in a drug case.

The thing about militia chuds is they are incredibly scared of black people, so I don't think too many are going to take up the invite. As for the NG, I don't know anything about the MN NG, but I would bet they are more representative of and sympathetic to the community than the average cop.

Comrade Blyatlov posted:I'm pretty sure he was more horrified at the sight of a major city tearing itself apart, which is honestly a pretty reasonable position That wasn’t a shot just at BigDave but at the general way so many people go “oh my” or find excuses or ways to rationalize/minimize institutional racism amd abuse but then clutch pearls when the oppressed destroy property. I mean, multiple people get literally killed by racism and the armed police of the state and it’s “we should investigate.” But when a strip mall gets ravaged, “this is no time for violence!” as cops or NG mobilize. Then again, this country lost its poo poo over a black man protesting via quietly taking a knee.

Riots I've said it before, but I'll say it again: the awful people making decisions in the Twin Cities police forces appear to have actively invited rioting to win the public over to their side and accelerationists are giving them exactly what they want.

Cugel the Clever posted:Same with looting—arguing that "capitalism is the real looting" neglects to acknowledge the terrible loving optics that will push scared residents into the arms of the fundamentally broken police force. It is true that Americans have a real problem with valuing property of businesses over the lives of minorities. hosed up, imo.

AreWeDrunkYet posted:This is the other side: Should they also be worried about being impacted by wanton police crimes? Absolutely! But that's not what is front and center in peoples' minds right now. We can explain amongst ourselves all we want how the other side is worse, but unless we can persuasively make that argument to the broader public, they're going to side with the strongman that says they'll take their fear away.

Cugel the Clever posted:I'm not the one you need to convince, it's the low information family a few blocks away that is terrified they will be personally impacted. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season." Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.

I expect a lot of people are going to object to being told they need to compromise with groups who see them as THUGS and are calling for shooting looters. 50+ years of taking the high road and still being dehumanized and murdered in the same way? What's the point?

BigDave posted:You know, I'm watching this all with a level of shock, that it happened here. I was really proud of being a Minnesotan, I really felt like Minnesota was something special in the US. I knew we had a troubled past, but I thought we had overcome that and we had a...a pretty good bead on things. A fairly robust welfare state, good benefits for single mothers and the unemployed, a progressive government, and strong environmental conservation. no you're right, the looting and destruction is wrong. The system should've never failed the people to begin with. For the system and its syconphants to expect order from people who have been seeing citizens get summary executed by Cops in the street , is the textbook definition of fascism. Its a tragedy, but it's clear who tipped the first domino. But thats your home and i understand the conflicted feelings, good luck on your journey of peace and understanding while away from GIP.
