So thankful for the cops hiding one car over not responding while I'm being stabbed to death.
Eighteen windbreaker jockies tackling a guy coming in through the out gate to skip fair payments, screaming over their radios that they need backup, and a little police furbie just doing spastic donuts in the corner while blaring "Danger Will Robinson! Danger!"
And god damn, I just don't feel safe down here for some reason.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Not saying that the subway is a utopia nor that unsafe things never happen here, but I suspect this is a propaganda piece to manufacture consent for the deployment of the national guard in the subway. https://hexbear.net/post/2107256
Indeed, notice the wording, this isn't an analysis of whether subways actually have more violence or crime, it's an analysis of how "safe" people feel. Vibes based analysis.
The unsafeness of the subway is of course also explained by the jump in poverty and inequality in the past couple years
Man I wonder if all the heavily armed men in military uniforms make that feel safer
The Citizens Budget Commission is a nonpartisan, nonprofit civic organization that attempts to influence change in the finances and services of New York City and New York State government
Hmmmmm 
Return to 70s-80s NYC subway tradition
Does this mean we're getting The Warriors or Final Fight irl?
And a neoliberal interpretation of the guardian angels
Wasn't the guy behind that group bad?
I think he started posting cringe
Come out and plaAaAay
Huuuh. Not sure how that would work, but maybe?

As long as NYC gets 70s-80s rents

It's full of cops and police robots and the national guard, of course it's not save!
news
Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.
Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:
The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.
-
Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
-
Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.
-
Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.
-
Link sources: All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.
-
Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.
-
Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.
-
American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.
-
Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.
-
AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
