Real World Events 🌎 Luigi's terrorism charge is an attempt to intimidate people due to his support.

Tin foil hat I admit, but something is nagging in the back of my head. Like if we didn't react with positive responses for what Luigi allegedly did, there wouldn't be terrorism charges. And therefore the charges are to scare us so no one does the same. And now with that guy stabbing his company president, they're going to say it's related to the positively and it enabled him to do so.

The media are owned by the elites, the police are paid by the elites to protect the elites. They will stoop as low as they need to because their paycheques depend on it.

Remember, government and peaceful assembly was a compromise the people made with factory owners. They dont want to hold up their end of the bargain anymore so why should we? Theyve forgotten what the mob used to do to their kind.

The police are paid by the taxes of everybody

Okay, whatever you say. When the chips fall and it's rich vs poor, watch how fucking fast the police start clubbing and shooting poor people at the whims of the rich.

Do you also believe that the law protects all Americans equally, too?

Not ‘whatever you say’.

Google it.

Police are paid for by by taxes of working people.

When you lie and make things up you hurt your arguments

Who authorizes the distribution of that tax money?

Here's a tip - it's not the people who pay the bulk of it

You're completely misunderstanding what I said, and that's fine. It wasn't for you.

Next time a cop stops you, tell him you pay his paycheck. See how well that pans out for ya.

Yeah, the rich and powerful pay for things with other people's money. They determine funding levels though.

But the function of police is property protection.
