@Some_Emo_Chick @adamgurri This calls to mind the similar, execrable response of many mainstream libertarians to the protests in the wake of George Floyd’s murder: “Yes, this was a grave injustice, but can you all go about responding to it in maybe a less unruly and inconvient way?”

@Some_Emo_Chick amazing how universal this headline is, it could so easy be referencing something The Met had done.

@Some_Emo_Chick "police surprised special unit named "scorpion" acted aggressively".

@Some_Emo_Chick

@Some_Emo_Chick It's been hard on the Onion in the last few years, when the world keeps dreaming up new stuff to parody itself, instead of letting the Onion do it.

@Some_Emo_Chick Possibly never a truer statement from the Onion than this one!

@Some_Emo_Chick "please do not revolt" says the footsoldiers of neoliberalism 

@Some_Emo_Chick Indeed.

@Some_Emo_Chick they are literally just describing facts. If the rest of the media used such straight headlines the world would be a much better place.

@Some_Emo_Chick The Onion is brutally accurate

@Some_Emo_Chick less subtle, but I love sending hard times articles to folks I know that actually get upset thinking they’re real
