I'm much more alarmed by reports of police not providing protection to a synagogue in Charlottesville while Nazis marched & yelled outside

I don't know what it is to be privileged enough to see antifa as an equal concern to the POWER STRUCTURE ITSELF being aligned w/ neo-Nazis

Could antifa make folks more sympathetic to neo-nazis? That might be true. But if so, that reflects how mainstream nazism is in America now

The normalization of state violence is so disturbing to me. Many legit do not recognize it as violence b/c it's legalized w/ seals & badges

I'm not even as alarmed by white supremacists marching in the street as I am by white supremacists who hold offices in government

But you see a similar dynamic play out where folks see no difference b/w police brutality & a civilian murdering another civilian

Oftentimes people view civilian murder as worse b/c police officer has authority to be violent & to kill. Normalization of state violence

This totally baffles me. Should be the opposite - with authority one has added responsibility not to screw up.
