And from the paragraph you cited: “Berlin police confirmed the incident on their official X account…insisting that the officers had no choice but to use force against protesters who they claim were acting violently.”

They say shit like this even when there are hours of video demonstrating otherwise. I’m sure afterward they’ll investigate themselves and find no wrongdoing.

These sorts of people aren’t really capable of responding to anything other than displays of power; they don’t respect anything else.

It just took one CEO getting murdered for other CEOs to panic, to try to make the story about how the CEO was a ‘family man’ or whatever, for many CEOs to have their pictures removed from company websites–they don’t give a shit about ethics, or history, or anything, but they sure as hell do respond to displays of power.

I think maybe just getting a couple of them would prove to be enough.

I don’t think Saleh is saying anything about all police being this way.

But the fact that any of them are like this, and that there are enough of them like this, is a genuine problem for the well-being of regular people.

This isn’t an all-or-nothing situation. We can recognize that there are a significant number of police using violence to accomplish political ends without having to make a disclaimer about not all individual police being this way, because there are clearly enough of them behaving this way that there is real cause for concern.

Wouldn’t you agree?

Pro-Palestine protestors really seem to get the pigs into a rage. They must believe that they’ll be able to get away with it.

And so far, it looks like they have. Right now, in the U.S., the Trumplicans (and Leon) are revoking the visas of international students who took part in protests to support Palestine. I’d guess for every couple we hear about there are a hundred more we don’t.

It seems strange the countries all over the world are using similar violence against anyone protesting the Zionist genocide.
