I love the dumb look on the guy in fronts face in the video. He literally glances at the hall to the chamber like "Duuuuh welll he's not going that way so it must not be important let's follow this police officer chap he's clearly leading us where we want to go oh my goodness where did these other officers come from".

It goes beyond that. Look at the way Americans and American media have historically talked about the President and the position of President. It's scarily similar to how countries with Royal Families talk about their King/Queen. The position of President in America is flat-out revered in a way that Prime Ministers and even Presidents in other western countries aren't. A "You have to respect him because he's the President" point of view, rather than 'As the President it is his duty to earn your respect'.

This is a deep problem with the way the position is treated by a not-insignificant portion of the American populace and that mentality helps birth and fuel the problems in congress.

Could always, I dunno...make the US President not just blanket immune to the law? Like a lot of other western (admittedly usually de facto) Heads of State are? Maybe don't treat the US President as just an Elected Monarch? It's like you guys saw that the power of Kings was bad, but decided the problem wasn't one person with that power but that they had it by birth and not via election. The power is still a problem!

@McTraveller: PREACH!

You joke, but Anarcho-primitivism is a real political ideology. The flaws are pretty obvious xD

I'll just say it, there has always been some neccesary censorship in society.

If you tell me in person that you think all gay people should be put to death are are all scum or whatever, me and my friends all shame you/kick you out of the pub/punch you in the face until you learn not to say that around us anymore. That's censorship, and it's always been a thing in society. There are things people are not allowed to say out loud by the majority around them will not allow them to keep saying it. When applied by the majority of society it's callled progress. Moderation and therefore censorship has always been needed in public forums.

The current proglem is that the internet creates environments where that kind of civil censorship isn't possible and allows large numbers of those people who previously would have encountered levels of forced isolation in their views to congregate regardless of distance. To allow them to loudly spread them on public forums acts like a virus and infects vulnerable people, creating more of them.

Extreme prejudice must be censored, by neccessity, to allow the continuation of a tolerant multicultural multiracial multisexuality society. The current situation that is growing is that Social Pressures create Market Pressures drive the censorship conducted by private businesses on their hosted public forums. Regulating to prevent that doesn't protect society, it creates the room needed to destroy it.

The tldr: 'TWITTER IS A PAWN OF THE LEFT! I'LL MAKE MY OWN TWITTER!'.

Apparently 'freedom loving' people who are all First Amendment nuts but, last time I checked, I couldn't see anything at all without signing up/selling my soul.

It is the free right of every American to sell all the personal information they can gather about every other American to the highest bider.

There's pictures of a man with a Auschwitz shirt and reports of multiple people with '6MWE' shirts, which is used by the Proud Boys and means 6 Million Wasn't Enough. As in, the Holocaust didn't go far enough. As in 'How to spot the worst human scum in 4 letters'. As in FUCK THESE PEOPLE. A Nazi flag wouldn't surprise me, there were definite neonazis there afterall.
