Walking away is white privilege.

Presumably, it's also silent, and therefore doubly violent.

Okay so my questions are these, and I'm serious about them. I don't have the requisite knowledge to answer them on my own:
- How bad is this on a 1-10 scale? (1 being you saw some wanker post something silly on facebook, 10 being the Great Purge. I give it a 4 because of what it paves the road for. Is that legit?
- How in the world is a Biden vote better in terms of putting a stop to where this is heading?

This is about a 7+. Beginnings of mob rule.

When you don’t let young people have jobs, go to college and Lead normal lives this is what happens.

This crap was going on long before COVID. College is what taught many of them to do this.

They are so fvcking bored this makes them feel alive. Fvck if I a, going out in public to be part of the zombie apocalypse. More money just gets diverted away from the people that need it most. Oh well.

Yes but if there were no virus tomorrow it wouldn't make this problem go away. Not by half.

Seen on TuCa: "It's interesting how the concept of 'harassment' has evolved. Tweeting that only people with a uterus can get pregnant is 'harassment,' but screaming with a bullhorn at someone in a restaurant is not 'harassment.'"

I would just walk away from that mob. Get up and say good bye.
Unfortunately, you would probably be followed, spit on, have food thrown at you. You might get pushed. Might even get sucker punched. Followed all the way to your car. Surrounded.
I feel bad about feeling this way but this puts me right back in 7th grade afraid of the bully, and yeah, fantasizing about shutting his mouth up with my knife in his ribs the stupid fuck.

Wow, this is close to home for me too. What would I do? Probably exactly what that white male does in the video...just sit there and put my mask on. Trying to reason with the mob is like trying to verbally calm down a pack of wild animals.

You know, some idiot is going to get himself shot in the middle of a restaurant before all this is over.

We're close to a boilover. And like LD keeps warning us, I think both sides will use that event to justify themselves and then we're off to the races.

a little forethought about how to react to those situations.
I would end up in the hospital with my head bashed in.
There is no way I could sit there, no way.
I would find a weapon and start swinging it.
And get my head bashed in.
I expect a lot of people around this area could just use their gun for protection.

Yes. Me too. I'd take 3 or 4 of them with me too..

Like Copper, I think I would have started swinging. At that point you are an idiot’s decision away from being attacked, and I would refuse to wait until it’s too late to defend myself.

There'd be zero chance of me joining in. As a "POC" do you think they'd ignore me and move on?

Depends on split decision of the mob. Coin toss. Best chance would be if they thought you didn’t understand English.

Perfect. Xenon could tell the mob he's from Slovenia.
Then see what happens.
