OK BUT THE THREAD??? Tumblr this is what kills me, you screenshot an amazing Tweet but don’t link to the source or UNROLL THE THREAD! So then I have to go read Twitter myself and lose my entire goddamn mind. Anyway!
There was another amazing thread on how fucked the Domino’s pothole-filling squad was, but this was from the same poster so it was easy to find. The other thread was about the concept of “prevailing wage” and how Domino’s was surely paying their workers minimum, meaning the job wasn’t going to skilled tradesmen and is further aiding the slippage of the former middle classes into poverty, but now I can’t find it. Anyway! There’s some underpinnings for that punchline.
NEWNAN REPORTBACK! The 400 kkkops deployed in Newnan yesterday to protect about three dozen neo-nazis did the following:
-forgot about their ban on metal flag poles, clubs, shields, and firearms when it came to nazis marching with them, but violently enforced a non-existent law about wearing masks when it came antifa, holding anti-fascist counter-protestors at gun point and arresting ten of them for this “crime;”
-removed journalists covering the nazi rally if the nazis pointed out journalists they didn’t like.
It could not be any more clear that the police were there to serve and protect the nazis only. Not the counterprotestors and certainly not the people of Newnan.
