Posobiec, speaking from Minneapolis, insisted that "Bolsheviks" were "radicalizing the moms out in the suburbs, out in middle America."

"Think about these two women who showed up yesterday," he said of Good and her wife, Rebecca Brown Good. "One is dead. One, by the way, I would argue, is complicit in the killing, is complicit in the killing of Renee Good."

This validates my theory that he killed the driver to spite the spouse. At the end, the “fucking bitch” comment was in regards ti the spouse and not the driver.

Hi, mod here.

In the future, please avoid sharing links from news aggregators. Sharing from the original source helps community health by providing transparency, and allows others to avoid reposting the same article.

Can we please always identify Epstein confidant Steve Bannon as Epstein confidant Steve Bannon?

[–] anas@lemmy.world 31 points 13 hours ago

Her death was correct and justified, and someone who didn’t kill her should be held responsible?

[–] timbuck2themoon@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 hours ago

Yes and this isn't news.

Why are we posting every dumb thought maga has?

[–] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 36 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Not the guy who stepped calmly aside and executed her?

[–] weaponG@lemmy.world 82 points 16 hours ago (4 children)

Had to read that headline twice and am still confused a bit.

[–] Aljernon@lemmy.today 98 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

MAGA influencers want the wife of the woman killed by police to get charged with murder for her death. They don't have a coherent reason why because they're MAGA but they definitely want to intimidate people who might consider opposing the government.

[–] pennomi@lemmy.world 58 points 16 hours ago (3 children)

This kind of headline just gives validity to them by amplifying their craziness. Simply NOT reporting instead of taking the ragebait is the correct action.

DON’T FEED THE TROLLS is truly lost wisdom.

[–] just2look@lemmy.zip 11 points 13 hours ago

I disagree. How it is reported on needs to change though. These things need reported, but not as serious or justified actions. The reporting needs to explain exactly why these calls are illegal, immoral, fucking cartoonishly evil. Name drop, call out the fascists. Journalists need to actually stand up for something.

Normalizing the fascists insanity needs to stop. The need to be unmasked, mocked, ridiculed.

[–] CubitOom@infosec.pub 17 points 15 hours ago

If your enemy is saying, I'm going to kill you, take it as a legitimate threat, not an empty one.

I don't like spreading their talking points, but it is helpful to know what they are talking about, because at the moment, they have the momentum, the power, and the drive to follow through with their threats.

Podcasters are running the American Regime right now.

Saying that this is ragebait and that the all government leaders are trolls won't make their threats go away. However it will make us more complacent and more accepting of their horrendous behaviour.

It doesn't deserve the platform or the dissemination.

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 8 points 14 hours ago

Shes gay. That's all the reason they need

Felony murder. If someone dies in the commission of a felony, even if it’s one of your accomplices and an accident, they can charge you with felony murder in the US. This might just be some right wing influencer mouthing off, but it’s not out of the realm of possibility if they decide they can charge her with a felony in relation to whatever she did at that traffic stop. The administration seems to be trying to provoke violence as a pretext for something, and this could be a means to that end.

Posobiec is the Pizzagate guy btw

[–] 5715@feddit.org 10 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

They need the heightened attention of internal conflict to mobilise against their perceived enemies. Given that the US Left seems figuratively disarmed, the fascists thus try to carry the conflict to their every doorstep by endless provocation. I don't think the US Left can do anything to prevent being painted as the initiator of a coming conflict, so I guess they should try to set their own shareable goals apart from stealth, to survive.

[–] starik@lemmy.zip 8 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

They definitely want someone to kill one or more of these ICE guys. They’re too dumb to realize they’re bait.

[–] Aljernon@lemmy.today 5 points 15 hours ago

I think they no longer care. Trump and the regime get away with everything they do. They do whatever they want now.

[–] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 4 points 14 hours ago

It seems very unlikely she committed any felonies in this encounter but that may not stop them from filing charges anyway.

[–] logicbomb@lemmy.world 12 points 16 hours ago

You're confused because the two people who expressed these opinions, Posobiec and Bannon, do not expect their audience is capable of thinking rational thoughts.

[–] TheFogan@programming.dev 10 points 16 hours ago

Not the headline in this case, it's how stupid the concept is.

In short, Felony murder is if you are commiting a crime and someone dies, you are held liable for it. In some cases it's half reasonable (Lets say if 2 guys go to rob a store, shopkeeper shoots one of the robbers, the surviving one is considered responsible for the death). But in execution it often leads to some horrificly stupid decisions like, say someone borrows a friends car, uses it in a crime in which someone dies... the damn friend can be responsible even if he had no idea of the plot or the crime that was intended, simply because he in some way provided something that was used in the crime.

and yeah here, it's basically depending on maga's extremely stupid interpretation that Renee Good just was going out looking to cause trouble for ice and tried to run one over. Which so far seems absolutely BS, everything seems to point to she was just driving back from dropping her kids off, got flooded with contradictory orders from the keystone cops, who shot her for being nice in the fray of it.

It's bullshit on 200 levels, but at least trying to interpret what the bullshit argument that's attempted to be made. If you grant all the bullshit claims made by this administration, and you accept this bullshit law felony murder that's rife with misuse and full of unintended horrific consequences, and you squint, you can vaguely make out something resembling an arguement for it. (again that's in a fictional world where you are dumb enough to believe what this administration says happened, over all the actual video of the events that blatently contradicts it.

There's mental gymnastics and then there is whatever the fuck this is?

Mental acrobatics. Mental Cirque du Soleil, if you will.

When you're a projector, all you know how to do is project... Or something to that effect.
