For the cops, they absolutely get that privilege. It's why we have bullshit like qualified immunity.

I think it's important to note that he's saying all that in response to people asking why he'd block or mute someone jumping on his post with something like that.
You can reply to public posts all you want, just don't be surprised if saying dickish things gets you blocked by the poster. Ken is just offering his 3 reasons he's blocking them.
The tactics part is the infuriating one here, to me at least. Even if you genuinely think that there won't be elections, if you act like there won't be, all that does is further make it harder to find those voices pushing for democracy.
The regime will be less willing to pull elections if everyone keeps talking like they're going to happen. If doomers let them be de-facto "cancelled" then the regime doesn't have to do any work to rig them on their own.
Except this is the police "union" (puts shame on the word) and not the state govt.
Police "unions" across the country are solidly pro-trump, so of course they love the brownshirts
This is the Minnesota police union. Because cops need unions but cashiers don't. I fucking hate them so much lol
Yea, Maduro is the successor dictator of a notorious dictator. They're getting no sympathies from western govts, maybe some chiding the US at best.
The removal of Maduro is a silver lining at best. I wanted the Venezuelan people to toss him out, but now they'll just have to toss out my govt's new colonial dictator instead :))))
The most frustrating part of it all is I can't just drive 30 hours to the white house and start throwing firebombs. I've very much come to hate how VAST a country the US is as of late.
Look at their username. Being obtuse to obvious shit like that is a common right-wing play.
It's still generally Hopis and Navajos. Usually you see the "the" definite article added when it's referring to actual whole groups, example: "The Navajo (tribal govt or tribe as a whole) are fighting against X" as compared to "Navajos (people) are fighting against X"
Strawmen are just as bad as anecdotes. No carnist/vegan more obnoxious than the one in your imagination.
That's $27 of meth they wouldn't have had otherwise
Eating carbs and giving you liver failure definitely doesn't sound worth it
