The NYT hates peaceful protest : microblogmemes

[-] EndlessNightmare@reddthat.com 1 points 5 months ago

Reminds me of how Colin Kaepernick demonstrating an unambiguously peaceful display of protest during the Black Lives Matter protests, and a bunch of people still got upset about it.

They'll attack any sort of protest. They just want you to sit back and take it. Anything that doesn't go according to their plans is a problem. Not consuming enough, not working enough, not having enough kids? All problems.

Wait, you mean north America Americans?

Because I'm pretty certain there was much more people than that yesterday in the whole continent of America.

Now, if you mean less than 1.4% of the North Americans, well that might as well be but then again, that's peanuts against the voting population...

Fuck off with this pedantry, it's such a white liberal guilt thing to get up in arms about. I've heard of literally no one from Canada, Central, or South America referring to themselves as "American". They identify by their nationality, as we do with ours.

If he meant north america, then Mexicans would also be protesting?

To be fair, there were registered No Kings events in Mexico and parts of South America, as well as Europe and Canada.

They're all state controlled. I cant tell you often enough.

Capitalism is not a free system. The media only says what it is supposed to say. That has been proven countless times.

The reason why some mainstream media posts "critical" articles is to make the ruse believable.

Please read anti imperialist sources and be prepared to have the crudest awakening possible.

What we in the west call "propaganda" by eastern states is mostly true and our understanding of "history* is mostly false. We are the baddies.
