    This garbage could have hardly made it clearer that he was going to the protests in hopes that he could murder someone. Greg Abbott could hardly make it clearer that if you’re a piece of shit who wants to murder black people and their allies, he’s got your back.

      If you don’t want the rule of law to deliver justice, then you get the alternative which is people taking justice into their own hands. This is a poor decision by Abbott and Texas Republicans as well as their supporters.

        Justice system is dead, Republicans have poisoned the courts.

      Wait, you don’t inherently trust pictures of text posted by anonymous strangers online? Clearly this sentiment deserves downvotes. /s

      On a less sarcastic note, I’ve noticed this a lot with my gen z friends - instead of using the share button that is built into pretty much every website and app these days, I get a screenshot of a headline from an article and am left to find the source on my own. Infuriating.

        I think thats gen z slang that roughly translates to “look at me I’m dumb and don’t read any articles”

    They are planning a coup and intend all hands on deck. I wish I was kidding.

    Why is “German” in the title if this was in the US? Sounds like xenophobic rhetoric
