https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boogaloo_(funk_dance) has the semantics I had expected for the syntax.
It even made it across the Iron Curtain: https://youtu.be/QSc3uk8Q5w4?t=4881
(1986, so a bit later than 1984's Electric Boogaloo, and a bit earlier than the 1989 end of the wall)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COINTELPRO
> Beginning in 1969, leaders of the Black Panther Party were targeted by the COINTELPRO and "neutralized" by being assassinated, imprisoned, publicly humiliated or falsely charged with crimes. Some of the Black Panthers affected included Fred Hampton, Mark Clark, Zayd Shakur, Geronimo Pratt, Mumia Abu-Jamal,[18] and Marshall Conway. Common tactics used by COINTELPRO were perjury, witness harassment, witness intimidation, and withholding of evidence
They're getting arrested routinely by FBI counter-terrorist police e.g. https://www.justice.gov/usao-nv/pr/joint-terrorism-task-forc...
Hawaiian shirts, Race War Electric Boogaloo, "Great Awakening", the radical right has gone off the deep end
As to people believing that justice should be applied equally—you’ll find few Americans who disagree with that. What you’ll find is a lot of people who disagree about what that means.
The final point is a random left-wing wishlist item that has nothing to do with fighting “fascism.”

Just from the top of my hat, the latest example of a hundred-plus years worth of statements/actions that disprove that statement: https://www.n-tv.de/mediathek/videos/politik/Linken-Mitglied...
Shown there, a statement caught on tape at a strategy-summit of the German far-left party Die Linke (I freely translate): "...regarding Energiewende [German Green New Deal]… after the revolution, when the 1% has been shot, we still want to heat our homes…"
To which the party chairman, Bernd Riexinger, present on the same stage replied: "We're not gonna shoot them, we're going to put them to good use"
> "In Brandenburg, the US Supreme Court referred to the right even to speak openly of violent action and revolution in broad terms"
no one is breaking any rules or laws here, as far as the constitution is concerned.
but see, that's all beside the point regarding facebook. they have no binding legal requirement to that same standard of free speech. the debate there is how much corporate censorship people are willing to tolerate without injury to facebook's bottom line and stature.

Appropriation of language and symbology is quite common among similar movements.
> Mirian G, a mother from Honduras, came to the U.S. with her young son on Feb. 20, 2018. She presented herself to immigration authorities and sought asylum, committing no crime. During her interview, Mirian provided immigration officers with several identification documents for her child which listed her as his mother. The next morning, Border Patrol agents took away her 18-month-old son with no explanation. She did not see him again for two months.
Even if she had crossed illegally, separating an infant from its mother like this for two hours is unacceptable to me, much less two months - and I would hope it would also be unacceptable to you.

This thread was entirely predictably awful.
