Lucky you. In most places they protect the Proud Boys and fascists.
Allowed or not, they do. American police don’t need provocation to use deadly force. They know they’ll be protected by the system.
They also run protestors over with their vehicles.
You can also catch a terrorism charge in some cases.
Less than lethals can actually be lethal. Several people have lost limbs and suffered serious injuries from them.
They shoot less than lethal rounds and tear gas canisters.
In America the police don’t rush protesters, they shoot them.
They didn’t disperse. Change is coming.

ICE detained a veteran and U.S. citizen for three days. They didn’t let him contact his family or a lawyer. They didn’t let him change or shower. They didn’t give him a reason for his detention. Under this regime, no one is safe. apnews.com/article/us-a...

Phang: Holy crap. Think about that. Oh—did I just say “holy”? Well, it fits… So, the church keeps its tax-exempt status while actively engaging in politics. Of course, this becomes a way to funnel money and circumvent campaign finance laws. Think about that.

Before 1917, Iulii Martov was arguably more prominent in Russia’s socialist movement than Vladimir Lenin or Leon Trotsky, but he has mostly been ignored or belittled since then. It’s time for Martov’s political life to receive the attention it deserves: jacobin.com/2025/06/mart...
