Flock = Nazi fucks.

This is fucking horrifying.

I only feel vindicated. Hundreds of anarchists, actual leftists, were saying #NoKings was liberal counterrevolutionary/deradicalizing. This is the smoking gun we’ve been saying all along.

That's in literally no way what anyone in here is saying, or evidenced by the video, so if you feel vindicated you're an idiot

In a normal and functioning democracy this would have ended in an absolute scandal, journalists would be able to stop writing about this, there'd he riots in the streets, and...

Well, this is the US, it'll just blow over in under 24 hours and even until then, nobody will care enough to give enough fucks to do something about it

T+1:24 also mentions they are using illegal drone surveillance to gather illegal intelligence for cops.

Perhaps if people are protesting you should spend more time understanding why they are protesting and less time trying to dox and break heads.

I don't think Nazis are in the business of understanding protest and the demands protesters cannot empower themselves to make.

You're forgetting profit.

Don't directly link to flock!! They get a warning if there a traffic surge.

Use a link this:

I wasn't first person to source the podcast.
Edited with your warning, but not your choosen proxy.

This is where the money is. If you're still living in America at this point I hope it's because you can't afford a way out.

[–] zikzak025@lemmy.world 8 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Well nobody else wants my underpaid but overeducated ass.

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 4 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Ok, but have you tried offering your entire body? Maybe the ass just isn't all that appealing on its own.

[–] zikzak025@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

It's the only part of me with an advanced degree. The rest is garbage.

[–] waltersf@bookwyr.me 5 points 19 hours ago

I don't think most Americans have thousands of dollars either.
