And people have the audacity to say this could never happen in the US, only “authoritarian shit holes.” Well, it’s happening here. Same with that mom and pop newspaper in a small town in Mississippi? Missouri ? Police illegally raided and collected everything from them, because of local politics
I think it was Kansas. Also don’t forget about murdering an unarmed Cop City activist, and branding the others as literal terrorists (you know, the thing we said was going to happen after the patriot act was passed).
They should know by now that the US is an authoritarian shithole
The USA is an authoritarian shit hole
looks to see who the people in question are
Autonomous movement against National Guard expansion in so called Michigan, defend the forest and decolonize the land
I mean, running around trying to block military infrastructure while saying that the state doesn’t exist does sort of seem like the sort of thing that might attract attention.
You must not be from a culture with an antifascist tradition of "First they came for the "
I’m concerned you would think this is an okay thing to post, and I’m worried about the people who subscribe to socialism and would upvote this kind of sentiment.
Furthermore, you’re not even correct. The police’s justification is the vehicle’s attendance at an unaffiliated nonviolent climate movement protest, though I doubt that changes things in your mind.

The first amendment doesn’t exist to prevent editorial censorship. It has nothing to do with “cancel culture.”
It protects freedom of speech, the press, assembly, and the right to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. It has been interpreted by centuries of court decisions to protect against exactly this - harassment and prosecution by government agents for engaging in protected speech, especially political protest.
