We probably have to finally recognize that those who have been left out of the social contract, find no reason to adhere to a social contract, which is why you're seeing protests turning into riots.

@fribbledom https://scholars-stage.blogspot.com/2020/05/on-days-of-disorder.html A discussion on riots, and why they happen. It tries to explore some of the riots where there's no way to blame it on being left out of the social contract.

@fribbledom The old feudal social contract never really went away: obedience in exchange for protection.

Citizenship is just a more respectable form of serfdom.

And if the law doesn't protect you, but only protects those who enslave and exploit you, then what good is the law to you? Why obey such laws, or those who wield them against you?

@fribbledom Although that is partly true, that's also not the full story. There are anarchist groups that tend to sneak into these protests, many of which start off 100% peaceful, and intentionally turn them to riots. Or, at least, that's what the media reports here in the US. Sometimes, it's really hard to know what "truths" are actually true and what "truths" are merely embellishments of the truth.

@fribbledom

Yes, and that would include equal protection under the law.

@fribbledom This is the best example of a racist policeman the left and blm could find. A democrat that is/was married to an Asian woman han who had stepchildren for asian descent and was working with colored people.

What a racist ??

What about getting some facts?

@fribbledom
Wow.

I usually find that people who are angry and shouting don't argue well but damn, was that a consistent and logical argument...

@fribbledom Oh, the guy in the video conference delivered his message perfectly! 30 seconds and so many stupid faces in shame. Bomb them to the ground!

@fribbledom And yet you don't see any specific answers to questions like:
"What happens when someone breaks into my house at night?"
Its all hand-waving and "community programs". That isn't going to fly for a lot of people, regardless of the intent.
