Is the world burning?

[Mandark]

Not to mythologize the presidents of the past but it really feels like at least the most modern ones wouldn't have fucked it like this? Feeling the lack of respect and leadership acutely rn. I remember Zeitlin posted about Nixon talking to Kent State protestors irl, can anyone see Trump doing something like that lol

He's very bad at his job! Even Dubya visited a mosque within a week of 9/11.

Trump is just as bad at the symbolic, comforter-in-chief, "nation's dad" shit as he is at the detail-oriented policy stuff. Just comically inept.

[Pissy F Benny]

Trump bumbling round Minneapolis and then holding an insane self centred press conference would probably make things worse

Yeah gotta be careful with spreading tweets. Plenty of people were saying Lincoln Park Zoo is being looted when it wasn't. Random pic of giraffe in the street from another year posted. Meanwhile a hippo picture from somewhere in South Africa. Yeah none of the from Chicago last night. We have enough real problems to deal with without idiots spreading misinformation.

Now my friend living by a Pet Smart noted the windows were fucked to shit. So hey maybe there will be a boa constrictor visiting you today, but...

Yeah the levels of misinformation going around is crazy, people are even saying protesters managed to break into the white house...

How you gonna casually interview this man?

Well that is top quality content, so I understand. But they might also just not have seen the other video yet tbh, that interview came very quickly after the other videos started floating around.

The live comments as this is happening 

[Nintex]

It sorta reminds me of the economic crisis we had.

"Oh, that's not going to happen really. That's not possible, you'd need to have all these circumstances that have never occurred ever. Not in a billion years haha!"

"SO yeah, that thing we said that wouldn't happen in a billion years... yeah it did. And then the other thing that totally would never happen also. Basically everything is fucked now but no one could've known"

Trumpy will double down and go full “I shat myself on purpose” mode. The racist demographic is his only chance of reelection, and conceding would make him lose most of his support methinks.

it's important to remember they're easily susceptible to conspiracy theories that rationalize what they want to see, they'd be disappointed but would say "they forced him to say that to get them to stop burning down our cities"

I already see them saying this is yet another deep state plot to get him out of the WH after the Coronavirus plot and impeachment failed 

[ToxicAdam]

Trump needs to be careful. If he speaks as if the police are an extension of himself, then that's another layer of baggage the police do not need right now. Just lay back and let the governors and mayors handle it. Provide financial assistance where needed.

[Positive Touch]

there are of course no antifa leaders, but there likely are many many people that could still end up getting charged and spending decades in prison with this move. the protests have been sporadic so far but who will step up and keep the protests going if it could result in a terrorism charge?

[TakingBackSunday]

it is indeed fucking terrifying

Bu, bu, bu, SOROS!!! He's pulling the strings!

[Uncle]

aren't there people with more managerial/organizational positions in antifa circles?

there's no face you can put on it but I guarantee you there are people doing more work than others

and I had read that the feds have been keeping tabs on them as a possible domestic threat so they probably already have lists of people to arrest

No.

It's "spontaneous order" + an idea which is independently discoverable by any person.

someone runs the twitter accounts
https://twitter.com/nycantifa

yesterday I saw an antifa image macro recommending what to wear and take, use a burner phone, delete facebook, don't brag, etc., somebody is making those

I swear I once read an article where someone infiltrated a local group where they planned an event in hushed tones and was handed a weapon (it was cringe)

[thetylerrob]

If they pretend Antifa is an organization they can blame shit on them. Antifa irl are just leftover crack fans.

[BisMarckie]

I haven't really been pissed off by anything from these protests but this one did it to me. Dude was just trying to open a dialogue, cross the lines a little bit and just be cool and they did him dirty. I can understand violence, teargas, rubber bullets and scattering crowds but this type of shit is upsetting.

If I learned anything from football riots, it’s if the cops stand in a line like hat, you don’t come near them unless you’re ready to fight. They don’t care about press badges or if you’re a woman or elderly.

[BisMarckie]

There certainly is a certain level of organization at least in Yuropean Antifa movements, as in there are certain organizations that band together under the antifa banner.

Before the last few days I was worried that Trump still had some kind of chance at getting a second term as people were out protesting his half assed pandemic nonresponse was too much, but I don't know how anyone sane can be thinking he's who you want steering the ship no matter how buried you are in partisanship
