Have seen a few posts popping up recently just straight up calling fo violence barely disguised as memes

Had thought Lemmy had chilled out a bit on that kinda thing for a while but seems to be coming back now

Anyone else noticing the same or just me?

Yeah, don’t care. You have no idea what it’s like to live here and how many people are ready to take matters into their own hands. Our government and justice system are a sham. We’ve had decades to do things the right way and we’ve been blocked from all matters of doing things peacefully. Violence it is.

These people killed my father and rendered my mother and I homeless for a short stint. I’ve had a lifetime of trauma dealing with these ghouls. I’d kill them myself if I didn’t have a responsibility to take care of my mom. I’ve wanted to do what the assassin did for the last 13 years. You let these companies deny your family healthcare and watch your loved ones rot and see if you want to take the high road. I and millions more are out for blood.

This was the first shot of many to come. Fuck the elite.

Just be careful you don't get in the crossfire yourself once the people's bloodlust takes over and who the elite is shifts. In some cases, wearing glasses was enough.

I’m already visibly queer and have been physically assaulted most of my childhood for it and threatened as an adult too. I don’t give a shit anymore.

Always funny when people are like "yeah but what if you become the target next" as if you haven't been the target already of not only individuals but also an entire system. Like, that's why we wanna dismantle it lol

I have a few things left to lose and then after that I’m a free agent with zero fucks to give and a very big axe to grind.
