I thought the FBI came in when these fucking inbreds pulled shit like this.
As far as they're concerned this is a state matter. Which is hilarious because it's a denial of their basic rights. Which the feds respond to all the time.
FBI always and forever are a bunch of absolute clowns. Acab
Shocking ignorance of what the FBI has done historically.
Such as?m
an FBI simp???
I'm so tired of these shit takes on Lemmy.
Right like imagine simping for fucking law enforcement
Imagine being so short sighted you see everything as black and white.
Yeah all cops are bad
Feels like talking to a child.
Well, yeah, when you take on a paternalistic mindset and mentally align yourself with Feds, you're gonna think everyone who disagrees with you is a child.
Is that because your perceptions of the world are so warped you have to look down on everyone for them to make any sense? Pathetic take my dude. Again, you're the one simping for fucking law enforcement.
The FBI has actively been undermining activism for decades, they wiretap/spy on Americans. I'm honestly shocked that there are so many fans. Y'all are dumb as hell.
Actually you're just an asshole.
To people who simp for the FBI? Proudly.
I've never simped for the FBI, you have no idea what you're talking about
Which was a follow up of
Which is, you know, nothing of value at any fucking time ever.
You didn't like when I called out people for doing it, idk what your beliefs are and I don't really care
How does that old saying go. If you can't attack the message, attack the messenger? Something like that. I guess if I were cut of that cloth I would accuse you of being against forced integration in 20th century US. But that would be idiotic and simple, no?
Sure would
Like trying to get MLK Jr. to kill himself, or you thinking more like the ‘inventing terrorists so they can arrest them’ angle
The FBI isn't exactly a small group of people and there probably aren't too many people there now that were around in the MLK days.
If you've ever worked anywhere you'll know there's going to be good people in the workplace and also some really shit people. All companies, government institutions, educational institutions, political parties, and yes even non-profit organizations are like this. If you measure the value of an organization be the actions of the worst people in that organization through all history, then all organizations are horrible things, and you should just go live alone in a cabin in the woods because everything is terrible.
Actually I was thinking of the incredible number of integration issues they dealt with, but sure. When you look for shit, all you'll see is shit. It's not the best way of going through life. It's incredibly easy, if lazy and intellectually dishonest, to see things binary.
Was that before or after they undermined civil rights movements?? Oh yah, both, they've been continuously doing that for decades.
