MODERATORS
They're consistent with passive voice when they're talking about fascists.
It's an odd game of limbo to play.
You can't upset the fascists because they own all the money, but you can't stop the flow of money that comes from the majority.
So you basically have to out yourself by "remaining neutral" although anyone that has eyes and can piece together the most basic thoughts can see right through it.
They dogpiled a dude with 6 guys and then executed him, and magdumped his corpse
In true American style.
Honestly, if it wasn't horrific it would seem like parody, the way it happened. Just an absolute tragedy of errors, beginning with the "error" of re-electing Don the Demented.
To people on the outside it’s a case of the citizens they once treated somewhat better than the black and indIgneous ones seeing the country firsthand.
They take no responsibility, thieve your shit and are brutal.
Edit: this is no error. They’d elect him again too after a few years. Over half the country are bad people.
Is it an error if it is deliberate and wanted? First as policy of the people in power. Secondly by those who explicitly voted for this and third by those who tacitly approved by abstaining. Fourth by those who fail to recognize the immediate peril their anemic resistance has put them all in. No one can pretend this wasn't entirely predictable.
Saying it's a tragedy of errors implies this was unintended or an accident. The way that went down doesn't look like it was, that was intentional.
Hopefully there's available recordings of this shooting so they can't twist the truth as easily.
Something like 5 different angles show that the shooting of Renee Good was a murder. They lied about it anyway. They aren't trying to convince people they're in the right - they're sending a message to their other agents that even if you get caught on 5 different cameras murdering someone, they get your back.
It also gives lies to the followers to parrot when they're refuting reality, in arguments with everyone else thats still sane.
They will lie to our faces about what our own eyes are seeing.
“The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
- George Orwell, 1984
Edit: omitted attribution
From the now classic book 1984 by George Orwell, for anyone who doesn't know where this quote is from. A highly recommended read for anybody who opposes authoritarianism.
Yes, thank you for that. I should’ve included Orwell’s name. Will edit.
There is. Alex Jeffrey Pretti, 37.
No criminal history. A lawful gun owner with a valid conceal carry permit.
Six agents were on top of him; one pistol-whipping him in the head. Another retrieves Prettis gun from his waistband at the small of his back and exits before a third agent fires the first shot. The others jump up and back off while drawing their guns. Several agents then fire at least five more rounds into Pretti while he's unmoving, unrestrained, and unarmed.
All shots were fired by agents, at a now unarmed man, who was previously lawfully carrying and had made no attempt to draw his weapon.

multiple angles synced up together (this ones being updated as new angles come in)
There is. It was a straight up execution. They say he "had a gun". Holding a gun is not a crime...
Every ice goon has a gun, they should be viewed as an immediate threat on sight
As far as I've heard, they are not saying he was "holding" a gun, just that he had a gun. MN is an open carry state. He may have just had a gun on his belt or something and they decided to protect themselves by killing him.
They also disarmed him BEFORE killing him. He didn't have a gun at the time of his murder.
Gang beaten, on the ground and defenseless, shot to death by a hail of bullets. Reminds me of those liveleak videos you see from like the Congo or something.
NSFW angle from the lady in pink
Imgur is blocked in the UK, does anybody have a mirror?
Thank you. Fucking sickening, clearly murder, no ambiguity at all.
It's the guy running towards the camera at the end, not that it really matters who pulled the trigger in this hit squad.
He has a gun in his hand and immediately bugs out after the shots are fired.
Audio? We got video it was execution.
One executed in public.
/edit:
multiple angles synced up together (this ones being updated as new angles come in)
Looks like murder in all angles.
Yup. They attacked him for interfering with their assault of another woman, disarmed him (of a weapon he was legally carrying, never presented, and never reached for), then murdered him while he was being held down/restrained.
Now they're trying to claim, without evidence, that he brandished and/or intended to use that weapon on agents, justifying his murder.
What's super gross is how so many MAGAts on Facebook are jumping immediately to defend the shooting. All of a sudden "don't tread on me" became "he should have just listened to authority."
Until these people fear for their own lives, nothing will change. This means peaceful protest is not the answer. We are unfortunately at that point.
That is wild, straight up murder.
We need the footage from the lady in the pink coat
It's out and it's just as bad as you think it is.
My permit to purchase can't arrive quickly enough.
