A large body of research, spanning more than 50 years, shows that heavy-handed policing and militarized responses to civil unrest tend to make protests more volatile — not less.

Sounds like a great excuse to declare martial law and suspend the constitution.

[–] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 33 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Probably start at this "parade". Just leave the military out there and call it "protection from the liberal terrorists"

[–] ClanOfTheOcho@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

You get a parade! And you get a parade! Everyone gets a paraaade!

Such a stupid timeline. We're burning it all down to feed the ego of a guy who can't be convinced his fake tan looks like it was mixed from a prison toilet.

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 weeks ago

I suspect the parade was a pretext to shore up defenses around the capital.

And distract attention from him raping underage girls with Epstein

[–] TotallynotJessica@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

His creepy shit is old news. Even if documents clearly confirmed it, it wouldn't move the needle.

Republicans love grooming and pedophilia. They've long advocated youth indoctrination and child marriage. Their only consistent virtue is winning and being the oppressors.

[–] dvoraqs@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I wouldn't call those virtues. Those are values or principles they have, but they don't reflect high moral standards.

[–] crystalmerchant@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Ding ding ding. Opportunistic escalation. Up and away we go

[–] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago

I think that might push more people to join, across party lines.

[–] Carvex@lemmy.world 63 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Adding fuel to a fire makes it larger? Fuck me this is breaking news

[–] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 14 points 2 weeks ago

It happened before the 1960s too, even!

[–] three@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I really dislike this dismissive attitude towards "obvious" news.

[–] Sc00ter@lemm.ee 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I think you put the wrong word in quotes. "News"

[–] three@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

No, I didn't. That would be exactly what I'm saying I dislike.

[–] Sc00ter@lemm.ee 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Its not news tho. Its history. So even calling this news is wrong, which is why "news" should be the word in quotes

[–] three@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] Sc00ter@lemm.ee 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

No im not. I havent challenges your point about dismissive altitudes.

[–] dvoraqs@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Dismissing the article as not being "news" is exactly the same sentiment as the news being "obvious".

It's not new information to you, but you are just speaking for yourself. Rather than holding back to avoid annoying people like you, I'd rather things be shared freely to inform the masses.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Is this the past that righties want, the subdued public discourse over shooting our own? Cause they can catch shots too.

They'll only feel more justified in genocide when they catch a few shots. I like to call it the Bibi-Hamas strategy

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah I think that's actually the plan here though
