This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It's because the Republicans usually have the police either directly on their side, or at least sympathetic to them.

Look at the police response across the country to BLM protests a few years ago.

And it's not like left wingers in the country don't do extreme action. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitol_Hill_Occupied_Protest

I did say democrats, not far left. And I did compare them to a far right group, not the reasonable non GOP Republicans
