why are these people wearing masks? I don’t really like protestors being masked either. Cops shld never be masked.
HAPPENING NOW: Newark Mayor Ras Baraka was just taken into custody while protesting outside the Delaney Hall ICE detention center
May 10, 2025 00:06Like with a lot of things, masks are far more acceptable for protesters to have than for cops to have.
We are in the middle of an ongoing pandemic and if we’re going to make it out the other side, especially with no fricking vaccines people need to mask. Going to a protest shouldn’t mean getting permanently disabled by Covid that you caught at the protest.
we don't want covid Josh! wtf
I wonder why all our allies who prefer that there’ll be no protest against Israel also demand that if there is, the protesters be unmasked (Josh, Yglesias, Schumer ). Doesn’t unmasking them help Canary Mission?
Very stupid opinion.
One of these things is not like the other.
Gestapo, not police.
You’re supposed to be able to ask for badge numbers. Pretty clear how that would go with this crowd. I will not be surprised to find out Proud Boys are being deputized.
Democrats better run on demolishing ICE
They’re essential to maintaining the “secret” part of secret police.
Look at these bad ass women putting their bodies in harm’s way. More courage than anyone in Trump’s Administration
Because they arent normal cops, they are the gestapo.
What about his staff
They mask because they learned their lesson when they participated in J6 that they can be arrested and convicted with videos.
That’s why I say name them. If they’re trying to hide, they shouldn’t be allowed to hide. Own your disgusting work.
So their moms won’t see them, I’d reckon. Also all the other reasons involving shame and being afraid society will see them for who they are.
And it’s hard to be the secret police if your friends and neighbors can get on Facebook and say “always knew that dude joined up for the wrong reasons”
Because they are violating all kinds of laws and they don’t want to be identified.
Their masks will make the Nuremberg II trials take longer.
