Are you stating that the propaganda is disrespectful or my post is? I'm genuinely confused in regards to that bit. I don't see how pointing out a possible example of cops literally spreading toxicity and squashing individual thinking would be disrespectful.

Your post is disrespecful, the police have been killing innocent people for decades now, the situation has become so bad, we really don't care if one of them wants to kneel, we want this system to completely change!

First of all I NEVER stated that you should care. The entire point of my post (along with the original reddit post, where people took the same things away from it) was to showcase an example (if its legitimate) of what their overtly negative and dissociative tactics may be like in regards to those that may try to disobey. Showcasing that is simply not disrespectful in any capacity.

It is disrespectful, people are protesting, we don't wanna see this, we want to see them quit their job!

Again, how is a post that possibly showcases (if it is real) further corruption and paints the majority of the officers in a bad light disrespectful to those protesting (some of whom literally cheered him on in the video). You're acting as though I'm somehow defending the cops assaulting people or something, which is unequivocally not what's happening here at all.

I just don't think showing us a cop who wants to kneel is the priority right now.

It’s just performative. They do this and then right after pictures are taken they tear gas the people in front of them

You are correct. One day they'll kneel in solidarity, the next day they crack your head open on the concrete.

I'm not saying that it's the priority though, nor was the post simply about a cop kneeling in solidarity. It was also showcasing the corruption within the system, which is what 99% of people got from the original reddit post. Therefore, I thought it might be worthwhile to share here.

Here is actually a more immediate and drastic example of that happening.

OP had good intentions, but GGD is becoming more and more "ACAB" as the days go on... And I can't say I'm mad about it.

Yeah I can definitely understand why people have that mindset as well.

There is no such thing as a good cop. Oxymoron.

Did he also teargas them after the photo was taken?
