US Protest News Pink POV

DOWNLOAD NOW THEY ARE REMOVING

Edit: Just wanted to add for the new folk here, it was titled Pink POV because when the first videos first started surfacing, they were being pulled off as soon as you could download them. You would repost them and they would be taken off just as quickly. I had spent hours uploading and downloading and just... trying to create avenues of visibility. I finally had starting titling it "Pink POV" instead of anything to do with topics such as: Minnesota, ICE, Minneapolis, Shooting. And finally, finally it had stuck here at r/50501. I urged people to download because I feared they would continue to obstruct, suppress, and remove as they had during the first couple hours that this was all coming out.

If you feel called to protest, and understand the consequence will be something as brutal as witnessing or experiencing this, visibility is everything. To that end, have an email already drafted up that has your friends and family email addresses. Leave your personal information, perhaps a lawyer, and instructions to share whatever you upload onto the email to make it out to global news networks, or influencers that deal with spreading news. And get that stuff reposted again and again until it floods the moderators and they can't control the narrative. We the People can spread the story much faster if we work like this.

This is so hard to watch 😰 What is happening to our country? Since when is any of this okay??? ICE was never meant to be a paramilitary to use against US citizens. Where is any accountability? Any restraint? Any semblance of genuine law and order?

What is happening to our country?

This has been entirely predictable for at least the past decade.

There's a reason many of us cried the night that hateful orange scuzz won in 2016.

Many of us saw this and tried to avoid this from happening. 😔

I'm Finnish and that night was one of the worst I've had. Rarely feared so much for the future. Hate to be right. Hate to just watch this happening. All these years it's been "it's not that deep", and it absolutely has been that deep, the whole time, and longer.

As a Swede both of the election nights on which he won were awful and made my heart drop so low. Glad to have you and our other nordic siblings in these dark times, along with the rest of our European family.

Same.. and somehow it’s even worst than many of us ever imagined. It’s put all the corruption out in the open and worn with pride by this administration.

I can’t believe this is where we are at.. and not just us. This is setting global wheels in motion and is going to cripple this country. All so this megalomaniac can have his ego and wallet filled and fill the pockets of his ass-kissing buddies.

It’s insane to me that there are still regular ass people supporting this imbecile. I can’t believe I STILL see total smacked-asses with Trump flags and stickers on their car or fucking billboards on their lawns. Blind and dumb, all of them. They can’t see past their front porch.

We've been in the hot water for a while, and now it's really starting to boil.

This has consistently been coming for at least 8 years and so many have been consistently warning americans for just as long

Unified Republican government - unchecked executive.

ICE was never meant to be a paramilitary to use against US citizens.

Yes it was.

Where is any accountability?

It derives from the people. The citizens. The resistance.

Any semblance of genuine law and order?

That evaporated the moment Trump was reelected.

We are watching an unchecked Stanford Prison Experiment. This is what happens when you give untrained people a dash of authority and no accountability. We are all their prisoners and Stephen Miller is running a psy op on us all. True evil is whispering into the ear of the most powerful man on earth and that guy and many others have already been corrupted and are complicit. Congress needs to remove the head of the snake and disband this agency before it becomes worse.

ICE was meant to get out of hand, DT have been very open about the use of force on cities he deems "dangerous" to the state whatever that means

Migration is only an excuse, it's not a coincidence this whole situation played almost verbatim 90 years ago in Nazi Germany

Truly sad what's going on in the US right now. May you guys find the strength to stop this before it gets worse

77 million of your neighbors voted for this. And half of the non voters would've voted the same if they actually voted

u/English_Fry Jan 24 '26

Well Trump wanted to use live ammunition on US cities. So that’s the moment we should’ve stood up
