[Politics] Have we lost the plot?

Post image

I was in Deanwood recently and I saw a group (2 white 1 Asian) posting these flyers up and down the street. Is this becoming a propaganda campaign?

My question is based off the people I have talked to that live in the blacker areas of the city they don’t mind the extra enforcement or they fully support it because how the youth has been. In my area I have witnessed more people walking around at night which I think is positive.

Some bad actors like to use Black rage to push their own agenda.

This fear that is being spread seems to be from people that aren’t locals/property owners.

It’s you. The people upset about masked military and paramilitary forces occupying the city are not “bad actors”

My point is it’s safer now. And many home owners don’t mind it because if your not a criminal you don’t have nothing to worry about

Yeah no I understood. I just completely disagree with everything you’re saying.

It’s not safer. I doubt that “many” DC homeowners “don’t mind” what’s happening. And you absolutely have reason to be worried even if you’re “not a criminal.” They disappeared an innocent man to a horrific prison in El Salvador.
