Started when Destiny gave $10k to the pigs to try and spite FD Signifier and now this dude repeats it.

    what the fuck is wrong with someone that they would donate 10 grand to the government as an act of spite

        The kind of person who supports cops, apparently.

        More people than you'd think. And plenty of them have pissed this kind of money away on stupid shit. But this is definitely a next-level kind of Mr. Beast meets Andrew Tate tier of publicity stunt.

          I know a lot of people with well-paying working class jobs and it's shocking how many of them will find any way to spend money as they receive it, even if they had struggled financially in the past before they had said well-paying jobs. A lot of time it goes to the most expensive car they can afford or random home improvements that they really don't need, like something in their home will be working perfectly fine but it's X years old so let's just get a new one.

          This is how you end up with upper middle class people who've been making >$100k for the last 30 years but have zero retirement savings.

        well not really as while the police are needed to enforce property with violence they are more than equiped to do so already. You get diminishing returns from more investment into weapons. Especially as if things got too out of hand they can call in the national guard and army.

        and the bourgeoise don't care to spend their own money on that sort of thing that is after all what the state is for

      Because they are deeply miserable people whose only source of dopamine left is making people suffer (or at least make the imaginary people in their heads that they made up suffer).

      A fool with money is like a donkey with a spinning wheel. We don't know how it he got it, and damned if he knows what to do with it.

    It makes sense when you consider that the kind of person who has $10k they can throw away without consequences is the kind of person rich enough that the cops are on their side.

    i know the whole "scratch a liberal" thing is pretty meme-able but god damn if it doesn't turn out to be fucking true way too often, especially with these cringe-y centrist streamers/youtubers who go full-fash when the drama they got themselves involved in for clicks/notoriety doesn't go as they planned

    Oh yeah that's what cops need. More money. That will solve the problems.

    It says a lot that he responded that way to a tweet that said, "I'm side-eyeing any black fans or friends Destiny has left." How you go from that to "That must mean you think I'm not really black" says a lot about you.

    Dude, police budgets are millions and millions (in some cases billions) of dollars. not even a drop in the pig trough, these people are literally just throwing away their money to own their internet boogie men......disgusting and incredibly stupid. no reeducation for these guys, believe it or not, straight to wall.

      That's what I was thinking. Obviously any amount of money being donated to cops is bad, but their budgets are astronomical so this will effectively have no consequence. It's like one guy watching Netflix in his cruiser on the side of the highway for 2 months.

      i think it's literally just because they're racist. there isn't anything deeper. maybe FD Signifier, a youtube lefty with some pretty good analysis, said something critical about the racists and their feelings got hurt. idk.
