One of the men goes for her phone. The other grabs at her hands. Ozturk screams. Shock and fear ripple through her voice. Two masked women join them, tugging at her backpack, peeling the straps from her shoulders. “I’m going somewhere, I need to call someone,” she pleads. “We’re the police. Relax,” one of the men says in response.
They surround her. Then, one by one, they pull their neck gaiters up to cover their faces. “You don’t look like police,” a voice off screen says. “Why are you hiding your faces?” The questions continue, but the figures don’t respond. Instead, they cuff Ozturk, cross the street, and put her in an unmarked SUV. She is gone.
Is this a joke? Where is the precedent for interceding in fascist regimes simply to stop fascism? If anyone from the outside steps in in any way it’s not going to be to save us, and it’s more likely IMO to be from someone with interests in acquiring US holdings, I.e. not because of the spread of fascism. I would be very surprised if I was wrong about this.

Lol what? No. You are either deeply misunderstanding what I’m saying or trolling.

Okay? I stand by my saying you’re wrong.
Still waiting on the response to the other one btw

Weird how quickly you respond when adding nothing of value and treating others poorly, but when asked questions about the specifics of what you prefer to what you’re shouting down, you sure take your time.

Yes, I’m pointing out what you prioritize is really weird and not consistent with what you’re saying, in my opinion. I make comments willingly, as you have mentioned. Your behavior is more your concern than mine (and also certainly whoever is subjected to it in your real life, whatever that looks like)
