I absolutely hate the love for revenge violence. Stuff like celebration people running over protestors in their cars because they were forced to stop on the road. Or bleeding out after someone got shot when they robbed a store.
This includes that fact that you can basically guarantee every thread contains at least one comment claiming "play stupid games, win stupid prizes"
people can be experiencing critical emergencies in those vehicles, hoping to get somewhere in time.
i cant encourage people to run over others with their vehicles, but we also cant pretend like highway protests dont invite other major problems
If your protest isn't disrupting shit, you are doing it wrong.
For example, I really really hate broken windows, but when French go smash shit on Champs-Élysées they are doing the right thing (most of the time).
Protestors generally move for emergency vehicles and drivers who call out to them and say they have an emergency themselves.
What protestors are those? Because here in Latin America you are screwed if my right to protest is getting superceded by your right to free circulation.
