Thanks for sharing mine got pulled on threads so I thought it was because it was a bad link. I would have brought it sooner

Why didn’t everyone else stand up for her!? If you don’t defend her you lose your own freedom of speech 🤦‍♂️
STAND UP! FIGHT!

I would have been tearing those dudes off her in .2s swear to god and my wife has seen it. jfc.

Feckless.

The fact no one else stood up fucking terrifies me. That is legit "First they came" - Martin Niemöller.

This is how people get sent away. It is when people sit still. STAND UP AND STOP THESE MEN.

If they aren't showing their badge, then this is a kidnapping. In absence of police, we should stop kidnappers ourselves without fear of legal consequences.

It's kidnapping, it's assault and then they say, "if you just comply" if I heard that right and that's where she says,"that's what a rapist would say" essentially. She bit one of them in self-defense and now is being charged

Except for filming, nobody is moving a finger.

There needs to be some sensible person to stand up and like organize people's minds for a minute One person or a few people go ahead record a couple people start pulling people apart

Certainly is what emboldened authoritarianism looks like, right down to NO ONE coming to her aid or to even get up to speak out about what was occurring. How could the German people just let Hitler do what he did, hey!

It’s happening. Fifteen years of teaching Holocaust literature and Orwell, and now it’s happening here in real life.

What’s going on?

Apparently those who don't support Elon Trump or a minority in that space so those who agree with her were in fear of helping resist as a minority against authority.

If they don't have badges, doesn't that make them kidnappers or Mexican banditos?

human-ity.bsky.social•2 days ago

Makes that whole situation assault. And she bit one of them and self-defense and Is facing charges last I heard

markhathaway1.bsky.social•2 days ago

That ain't right. The pressure ought to be on them and the police to defend what they did to her.

human-ity.bsky.social•2 days ago

It isn't right. It's distressing. It's a very embroiled moment currently so I'm not sure what things are looking like at the moment but I don't see those charges going anywhere but I'm just surprised that it even happened

ID Republican town hall. Call out EVERY Republican Senator, Gov., Rep. and all GOP party officials to go on the record. Do they condone these actions or disavow them? Challenge them on every platform, every discussion.

This is where all Democrats can finally, collectively find their backbone.
