NYPD Attacked Free Palestine Protestors
because ACAB
Hiii, today I’m sharing my feelings about the NYPD attacking Free Palestine protestors. Onto the news…
News that made me bring up the UFC
The NYPD attacked free Palestine protestors in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn on Saturday, October 21st. No one is surprised by this attack because one thing we can count on the NYPD to do is uphold injustice and oppression. Just like one thing we can count on Eric Adams to do is to be at a party. Some people don’t like that Eric Adams parties. I wish he would party so much that he forgets he is mayor. I think the City of New York would be a lot safer if Eric Adams didn’t actually do any of his mayoral duties. Nonetheless, this is not just about Eric Adams.
It’s about video footage of David Lamarre, a Strategic Response Group (SRG) sergeant punching protestors like he is in a UFC ring. SRG is a criminal organization created in 2015 to fight against terrorism. Ironically, the group that was created to counter terror is actually carrying out the terror. Or should I say unironically because what do we expect from the NYPD other than terror and horrible outfits. Sorry not sorry to tell you this, NYPD, but you look as terrible on the outside as you are on the inside.
SRG is a terrorist organization which the New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU) has said should be disbanded. The NYCLU didn’t call the SRG a terrorist group, I’m calling them that because they are. You can trust me on this one because never in my life have I ever mistaken terrorism for self-defense. Maybe that’s why I’m not president of an evil empire known as the United States of America. SRG brutalized protestors during the George Floyd uprising and continues to brutalize activists in NYC with hopes of preventing people from protesting a despotic state.
SRG is doing what it was meant to do. When you are a despotic state that wants to maintain power, protesting is terrorism to you. No despotic regime has ever said, yes, please tell us what we are doing is wrong, loudly in the streets. Despotic regimes know what they are doing is wrong and that’s precisely why they don’t want people talking about it, just ask the occupying Israeli government and any group fitness instructor. No, Jim. Me laying down is not to challenge your authority, I’m simply taking a nap because you just made me hold a plank for 45 seconds.
Looking at this footage of David punching people who were protesting genocide highlights one thing about the state of our world which I will keep saying until I don’t have to say it anymore. The people committing terror are accusing the people fighting against terror of being terrorists! The NYPD claims that David, the person who is clearly the aggressor, is only attacking criminals in the crowd. Of course I know the NYPD lies more than a teenager who broke curfew, but not everyone knows that.
It’s doublespeak that allows the oppressor to carry out extreme violence without backlash. Someone should tell George Orwell that authoritarians are plagiarizing his book 1984. It’s okay if you didn’t read that book in high school, just read the news from non pro-genocide media outlets.
That’s it for the news, but don’t go yet
