    “A task force”

    I knew Daredevil Born Again was going to touch on some of the same issues, but holy crap it predicted the future.

    Is it illegal to Nelson laugh while pointing at swasticar enjoyers and calling them dorks?

    No? Then this is all a waste of time. I shall continue doing so unabated.

    Good! We’re FINALLY Solving REAL PROBLEMS!

    -This is LITERALLY What Conservatives think while CHILDREN ARE GUNNED DOWN IN SCHOOL, SHELVES ARE EMPTY OF GOODS, 401KS TANK AND ICE IS ALLOWED TO ENTER HOMES AND DEPORT PEOPLE WITHOUT WARRANTS OR CAUSE!

    I thought Elon was behind this since Tesla’s aren’t selling well. They should start from there.

    The police are there to protect the business interests of the richest man in the world.

    They call regular people “terrorists” for daring to stand up to fascism in any small way.

    They start a manhunt for the murder of the CEO of a health insurance company while ignoring the murders of countless regular people every day.

    Private property is protected, while it’s been made illegal to be homeless.

    What a sick and decrepit society.

    This really does illustrate the idea that police aren’t there to “serve and protect.” They are there to keep the common people in line so that the rich can stay safe.

      Mask off moment. Their purpose is to protect capital. The only crimes that cops prevent are through deterrence because they are crime punishers, not crime preventers.

        they are crime punishers, not crime preventers.

        This isn’t unique to the US. It is called law enforcement so even if it wasn’t a completely broken and horseshit system crime prevention would not be part of their purview.

        You prevent/reduce crime by addressing the underlying societal issues that are contributing to it.

      How thin does that metal paneling have to be to wilt due to brief exposure to fire?

    Terrorism is scaring/harming people to manipulate government.

    Tesla is neither government nor their property damage is scaring people.

    More trumped-up charges.

    (It is hilariously fitting Trump the man and Trump the word fit so gand-in-hand)
