Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

This picture will be shown in History. It shows in so many ways whats going on and what is at stake. Wow.
Hope that both photographer got Out of that well
For real. This is photo of the year material.
Appears to be some kind of Leica M, so could easily could be over $10k of kit.
Fuck that's a great pic.
We all love to shit on journalists because most of the time they deserve it, but some of them are honestly doing heroic work and are fundamental in times like these.
And it's also a great case for why photographers have not been made obsolete by AI, but quite literally the opposite.
Hopefully wins an award.
There's a reason the press is often referred to as "the fourth branch of government". Journalists that do their job properly are absolutely critical to the proper functioning of a democracy.
Photographers and journalists are two separate groups though. Photographers are the admirable ones for collecting facts and putting themselves in actual danger.
Journalists, however, oftentimes take these facts and spin them for ad revenue, political gain, or their own career advancement

That's not a journalist, that's a propagandist
We all love to shit on journalists
no, "we all" don't
"Those that pass themselves as journalists" maybe
This will end up in history books
winners get to write the history books so guess we will have to see or don't see
The rest of the non-fascist world is watching. The US isn't the entire world believe it or not
It's being recorded and the world is watching. It will be in some history books but who will have access to those books is a bigger question.
doomer here.
Mankind will extinguish itself and there won't be any history or its books.
This guy dooms
This idea that "history is written by the winners" is bullshit and literally only favors fascists. It's the main reason for a lot of the "clean wehrmacht" myths and is the entire thing that the "lost cause of the confederacy" thing revolves around.
Land of the free.
Whoever told you that is your enemy.
Whoever told them that was almost certainly an elementary school teacher who didn't know any better.
30 years later and the album is just as relevant as the day it released.
I love the classics but does anyone have recs for modern day rebellion music? I saw dropkick Murphy's released a track "citizen ice" but I would love additional recommendations. Open to any genre that harshly criticizes the current state of 'gestures broadly'
You're gonna have to dig real deep for that one. Moat, if not all, record labels are zionist owned. It's why you hear very little about Israel from today's black hip-hop artists.
I've really been digging Cheap Perfume lately. It's pure feminine rage, which I'm an absolute sucker for. I would start with "it's okay to punch Nazis" but I think almost everything on their newest album is pretty good.
Destructo Disk seems pretty good too but I haven't dug into them as much
I'm also on the hunt for modern day rebellion music.
Another hero being molested by Trump goons.
Oddly, when I search for it in Google or Bing, it doesn't show up; but when I ask Google Assistant about a photograph of reporter throwing his camera to another reporter on FB, it returns only the T*****s post.
