    Well, that was 100% a conscious decision to throw a punch at an unarmed protester…

    We need to bring back and eye for an eye, he should get punched by someone with equal force that he used.

      He should get punched with someone of the same weight class disparity above him that he had to her.

        Exactly this. Weight classes exist for a reason. Inertia is a thing, and smaller people have less of it to throw around. A tiny person will get their shit rocked by a big person, even if the big person is only half-assing their punches. A concussion is when the brain bounces off the inside of the skull, and someone in a higher weight class is much more likely to cause that. Look at how her head snaps back when she gets hit. Now imagine if it was someone her own size, and imagine how much less impact it would have.

          Aye, theres something to be said for the added weight of equipment too. Someone running into you on the street deliver so much more of a whack when they have a bag on their back.

      At the very least, someone who has proven they cannot be trusted in a position of power should be removed from that position. The reason why so many people believe that ACAB is because even when cops do stuff that leaves no room for any benefit of the doubt, there are no repercussions.

    When they go for one of you, everyone needs to pile in. They can’t take all of you, don’t give them even one inch.

      They have guns and they’re allowed to kill people if they “feel their lives are threatened”. You can’t protest with guns anywhere in the EU.

          A mob of people kicking and punching is a lethal threat.

          They won’t shoot real bullets as a first resort but escalation is not a viable tactic, especially since protesters are disarmed and can’t legally retaliate against unjustified violence.

        Yes, some blood is gonna get spilled. You either die fighting or go quietly into that great night. Revolution is never bloodless. Neither is seizing power, or fighting against injustice. Heads will roll, let’s make sure it’s the right ones, eh?!

      feddit.org is way to toxic for some reason, it’s only extremely narrow politics posts on the feed. it’s always CDU and merz (and söder) bashing, nothing else.

      really, attack the idea, not the person, otherwise the same idea comes back wearing a different face. i wish more people understood this. it doesn’t help to complain about a party or person one doesn’t like. one has to give good counter-arguments to the policies itself, only that brings discussion, insight, and progress in the world.

    The German police beating Gaza-protesters? That’s like their number one hobby. They would never dare treat literal neo-nazis from “Der Dritte Weg” like that.

    Riot police in Berlin was always a tad more brutal for no apparent reason. I guess that’s the ‘perk’ for protesting in the capital…

    ITT: Anon wonders about context prior to assault. Everyone accuses anon of supporting police brutality.

      Because they are supporting police brutality. Their comment and replies are dripping with the implication that they want context so they can judge the officer when the situation doesn’t need explanation at all. It’s a tried and true tactic to make bootlicking more acceptable.

      Edit: See also: “We need context before we can judge the Israeli Wehrmacht for literally shooting children in the head with a sniper rifle.”
