This is one instance where Greece is ahead of the US. This happened 2 years ago when deranged nationalists tried to do something completely analogous because they were pissed that a deal which would accept North Macedonia using the name North Macedonia among other stuff was being voted. They tried to storm the parliament and the cops obviously didn't let them (because cops can do that when they are trying to, unlike what happened here) and there was some tear gas. They were spinning the story the exact same way. Motherfucker, this happens to us every time we try to protest anything, it happened to you once after you literally tried to storm the parliament and you think there's some kind of conspiracy by the police against you?
I did not know about that in Greece, but it absolutely makes sense. Maybe the most insidious part, is that they had collective masturbatory sessions about state violence and vigilante violence against blm and antifascist protesters. They're aware of the violence, but they love it.
They've just made their choice, I reckon. Instead of equity and a distribution of resources, they'll take violent oppression as long as it's not them. I probably shouldn't be surprised, but it just still shocks me.
