Like it or not France is not the USA. I know many people enjoy this narrative but it's simply false. No, all cops are not bad. "Radio Moscow" needs to shut up.
RT.com was specialized into filming the protests in France. Have you ever seen RT reporting on violences in Russia? RT was forbidden to operate in the EU.
What, you think that Uncle Putin just stopped operating in the french media? Are you naive?? It's the job of Russia to push this narrative, they had employees which it was the job for years. When you sing the ACAB song you are following their lead.
You cannot just come to kbin, sing the ACAB song and go unchecked, this is not lemmy here.
I'm sure the teens parent takes immense solace knowing that the French cops who murdered their son aren't American cops.
Policing as an industry is bad, and the people who participate in it willingly are bad due to supporting the system that won't only destroys and ends lives. That's not propaganda, that's reading the news and coming to a simple conclusion. I'm not even going to respond to your RT non-sequitur.
LOL, amazing you have the gall to accuse others of falling for propaganda while also attributing the ACAB sentiment to Russian propaganda instead of people watching the damned news. Or is this civilian video also Russian propaganda? Are the propagandists under your bed right now???
Goddamn, I thought we left the authoritarian bootlickers on Lemmy/reddit.
Read the news or open a damned history book friend....
Yes the propaganda machine is in force. Realizing that, this kid must not really be dead, right? After all, the cops aren’t bastards and would not hold a gun point blank to a drivers face and then shoot, right?
in France, 746 deaths by police, including car accidents, in the span of 44 years.
For information so far in the USA and for the year 2023 the police have killed 527 people. So roughly by the end of the year the US police will have killed more than the French police in 44 years. I let you adjust by population etc...
France is not the USA.
Do not project the American problems into Europe.
No, "the cops aren't bastards". That's my only point, I made no other, specially about the events, only the claim about the cops made by tenet, an anarchist probably. For the rest about how things happened it's up to the justice to do the job.
France is not the USA and no, all cops are not bad. It's not the first time that we see people trying to import foreign problems into Europe, it's probably not the last...
You don't have the excuse of "reddit is an american" site anymore. Think global, it's not always about the USA.
Can I say "fuck the police" and stay?
Would that be alright?
Under what circumstances would you assent to my expressing displeasure at armed gang members stealing from the populace and committing murder in defense of an oppressive class system?
Can I say, "the pigs can kick rocks!" or is that still too spicy for you?
I'm glad that we had this discussion, really. Now we know better who stands where.
I told you hours ago, let him answer himself:
He did not disappoint. This is the kind of person who spent too much time getting hyped up on lemmy and who is released on kbin.
