If George Floyd incident happened today, what would the reaction be?

I think the fatigue is so widespread, there would be a universal yawn, especially among the corporate HQ's. BLM made them look so foolish. On the other hand, would the wokies try to use it as a launch pad for more rioting?

Somehow, someway it's Trump's fault.

If Saint Floyd of Fentanyl had never been a thing the reprobates might not have been as emboldened to create the current fatigue.

Probably much less chaos.

With Covid panic and restrictions and government flying by the seat of their pants it was a powderkeg of frustration and Floyd was the excuse everyone needed to fly off the handle.

Democrats would certainly try to riot and loot and burn their own cities. Maybe wouldn’t be quite as widespread but they’d try. Destroying the place is their raison d’etre, after all.

Lynch mobs of black people would start hanging black people to protest white supremacy.

I'm not sure what the reaction would be, but police officers murdering citizens is not a good thing, even when the citizen has a rap sheet.

Statistically, it is a rarity, not as widespread as ghetto violence.

All depends on if we are in an election year.

Today? Right before midterms? The left would go absolutely ballistic but command their drones to stand down on the rioting so they can gaslight as they please.

Absolutely. But this conversation is about George Floyd. He overdosed and wasn't murdered. Stay on topic.

Covid and the lockdowns and such that came with it made everything much crazier

thanks, glad we’ve got Reddit’s latest perspective on The Prince of Fentanyl. This is the point in the thread where you disappear until your next drive by shitpost
