    So close to being self aware. What happens when you reverse the roles with the same logic then? Judging a police force for their most violent cops but not judging a demonstration for their most violent participants is what? Are you suddenly a ‘freedom fighter’ because you believe your cause is just? History proves the worst people always think their path forward is the righteous one. I really wish we’d stop getting distracted by this shit and fight against the real oppressors of us all: The wealthy.

        I’m 14 and that’s deep. Way to sidestep the actual point.

        The counter to hypocrisy is to be principled, yet that sign seems to accuse people of the exact thing it represents. I’ll ask again, if your enemies are oppressors, does that make you a self-claimed freedom fighter? Rebel? Or something less flattering - Terrorist.
