I'm both impressed and bewildered by how many are staying. When the mayor themselves is acting against you, and is clearly determined to keep doing so, why on earth would you stay?

I expect a number are only still working there because they haven't lined up a replacement job yet.
Money.

It's hard to find a job with equal pay, unless you've gone through some sort of training program or schooling.

Police aren't getting rich, but they're making a solid middle class income. Going from that to flipping burgers or stocking groceries isn't a great move if they want to keep their homes and support their families.

Also pensions. The Antifa backing local governments can take their pensions away(or ensure they don't get them).

Which is why the police will never turn on their superiors, no matter how much they may hate or disagree with them, they'd be blowing up the balloon that is their own future.

...Can't spend your pension if you're dead or the commies get rid of it due to you being a 'pig'.

The police will never be an independent political force. Take away their pensions and they’re just men with guns. If the Seattle PD mass resigned, they would have their pensions revoked. And they’d be working at McDonald’s.

Their self interest is why the police will never be political actors. They’re just the pawns of those who are.

Military is the same way.
We have a little more freedom though for as long as we are not dishonrably discharged it is not difficult. Honorable is preferred

Indeed. The police and soldiery will do what they are told, even if they have the guns, because the people who are actually in charge can with a stroke of a pen take away their livelihoods.

Money Is Power.

Up to a certain point at least. I for one really wouldn't want to be the person who actually took away said livelihood since my odds of not dying as result are considerably higher than 0%

Want something funny? Here’s the inevitable consequence of intersectionality as movements that should be united brawl over minutiae.


No that isn't a consequence of intersectionality its a conquence of how a zero sum mentality works in real life.

After victory you have to decide how to devide the spoils, and some people will get more and some people will get less because their is only so many reasources to go around, which nets you fights, bickering and even full on purges that you get post left wing victory.

The has happened numerous times in the past and we need to be thankful it happens because if it didn't we would all be fucked.

...you guys have been watching too many blackpill videos on Youtube.
OH I am just saying what I know wy things work for the military
Apparently there was a "free speech rally" in San Francisco today that ended the way you'd expect.







Look at the commie chimps howling in the replies to this one. What evil, evil souls. Their time will come soon.

Bonus: child soldiers in Portland.


I found a video of the Guard in Atlanta, and there was a really shot female soldier, andpeople were saying Child Soldier

We wont be as nice as the British


people tend to forget that americans are nice until we freak out.

and once we do we do so with the resources of hundreds of millions of people and a continants worth of resources. Antifa hasn't yet hit the freak out button, but once they do and with their mentality they will all of those resources will be focused on their destruction.

The media cant and wont cover for them forever.
