you know I feel like the whole "civilized protest" rhetoric is being pushed because it barely challenges the hierarchy and the system
at our protests people were setting police stations and administrative buildings on fire (based) and this is the same thing that happened during Floyd protests, and yet the reactionary rhetoric is all the same: "domestic terrorists, unlawful protesters, uncivilized, barbarian people" etc
so cops and the military killed tons of people and that was shrugged off as them being heroes, killing ordinary folk. wow
