        By deputized Federal agents, in cold blood, without even announcing they were arresting him. Motherfucking death squads on the streets of America and people be like vote harder

          THERE ARE ROVING BANDS OF GOVERNMENT FUNDED DEATH SQUADS KILLING PEOPLE

          I don't see this at all. No one is saying that all-caps terror his happening right now. What people are saying is that all the pieces are in place -- including folks actually getting killed by cops and right-wing militants -- for the situation to quickly devolve into that. No one is claiming the U.S. is now Chile under Pinochet.

          this whole server has just become a place to vent ‘TRUMP IS OPPRESSING ME’

          You must have missed the countless "Trump is just a symptom, things will be just as bad under Biden" posts.

              In most threads I see at least a few top comments mentioning ‘rowing death squads of right wing militias’. I am not going to search for it, I am sure you can see for yourself.

              I don't see this at all.

      This take is just bad.

      it is disrespectful towards people living in countries where there are actual death squads.

      You could say the same with cops, that people shouldn't say cops are corrupt bastards because it's disrespectful to people living in countries where cops ask you for 100 bucks otherwise they arrest you for drug charges; yeah, it's a different level, but shouldn't we support struggles against cops on all capitalis countries, regardless of their context? Besides, it was clearly joking about Biden's centrism., c'mon

      would think if there was so many people there, at least some would be dedicated do protection of the rest.

      I'm with you on that tho, fucking arm yourselves or at least organize some infantry units for streetfighting against proudboys, idk.

      I'm not american btw
