oh boy, had my own very liberal father ask if everything was OK in LA. That tells you how bad the media is covering this. I'm literally going to an Emmy event for The Last of Us tonight. Gyms are open. People are going to the movies and hiking in Griffith Park. Don't need no Marines.

L.a. is a crazy place.

we have been sold out.

At no point in world history has the side with the secret police been the good guys.

this is going around as people finger wag about optics and peaceful protests and i just want to note that the cop here - john pike - received retirement, 8mos of suspended leave pay, and $38k for the pain and suffering of macing kids the students received $6k-30k, most at the lower end

"Working people everywhere should see this as an attack on working-class people, and they should all unite in solidarity to repel these attacks against our community.
