    Feel free to elaborate on how acknowledging people dying for doing good is “tolerating evil” and not the exact opposite? If you truly want people that will act and stand up, then those are the people you want. They died proving it. The loss of them should pain you, not cause you pleasure.

    Humanity does need people who will fight the corrupt and wicked, but by your own admission, most people favor inaction. The number of people willing to put their own well being on the line for others is far too low to be so discriminating. We should commend any good act, regardless of where it comes from.

      When 2 shit people fight, you do not commend either side. You grab popcorn and enjoy the show.

        You described it as an attempt to “overthrow democracy”. What is shit about defending democracy?

          I didn’t make this meme. Id have happily left that nonsense off, I don’t consider representative democracy to be democratic in the slightest especially not the US 2 party system.

          The general message of this meme is that police are happy to be racist pieces of shit more than they care about anything else.

            So you can take my posts out of context for character assassination, but you can’t be held accountable for the content of yours? That’s…hah, ok. I’ll revise - how is standing against an overwhelming violent mob trying to overthrow any democratic process “shit”?

            police are happy to be racist pieces of shit more than they care about anything else.

            Systemic racism is a serious issue, that much we can agree on.
