    So your mad that protesters in other cities aren’t being attacked by local police and federal agents, got it.

    Pass the word everyone, if you’re not getting hit with tear gas and rubber bullets your protest doesn’t matter. Might as well not even try.

      Law enforcement will only target protests that are a threat to the oligarchy.

      If a planned public protest is not targeted by law enforcement then it has been determined to be a toothless protest

          What I said would be true of Russia. This is because Russia is an oligarchy and this is how oligarchies operate.

          The United States is an oligarchy as well.

          Therefore what I said applies to the United States.

          The goal of law enforcement is to preserve the existing social structure. American social structure is that of oligarchy. Therefore law enforcement exists to preserve oligarchy.

          American law enforcement is immensely well funded. These protests did not all encounter law enforcement opposition. Therefore, law enforcement must have determined that these protests did not represent a threat to oligarchy. Therefore the protests were toothless because they did not represent a threat to the existing social structure
