Keep doin what yr doin brother. There are few things in life that mean more than merely having an advocate.
It's life changing. Truly.
And fuck reddit. The local subreddits especially. The Seattle one is hot garbage, full of people who've never lived in Seattle spouting off right-wing hatred that doesn't reflect 95% of the thousands of people that I've personally met in the area. Portlands gotta be exactly the same. I recall reading in the Stranger (our version of the Willamette Weekly) that the police union has motherfuckers astroturfing and spreading the copaganda and I fucking believe it.
I was talking on a Tacoma thread about a guy i personally watched the TPD and state patrol kill and got told they did nothing wrong. When he was on the ground, surrounded, and 5 different tazers hit him. Uh huh. Defending that is unfathomable.
I followed the case. Internal Investigations said they did no wrong. Motherfuckers. ACAB.
It's so sad that when I hear about that kind of shit that I'm not surprised. There is ALWAYS a reason for people to victim blame.
Also kinda wild that the cops are astroturfing, though. I could definitely see that on Facebook. I think in general people who use reddit regularly are of particular demographics that are privileged and fake progressive, so I can see how the community opinion would be skewed. It's just so disheartening to see, though
The last guy to run for police union prez in Seattle, for reelection, his motto was literally "controlling the narrative".
Saying the quiet parts out loud.
The fucking audacity. I'm sure the good ol boys loved that. Ugh
