Plain clothes are always incredibly obvious and oblivious to that fact. I’ve known them to stop and search people because they are baffled someone spotted them.
what’s the deal with the white arm bands?
it’s so they can identify each other in a crowd, they usually do a “color of the day” system. the last picture has an orange armband.
If I ever spot this I am 100% greeting them with “officer.”
while funny, I would absolutely not recommend doing this. warn the people around you, point the officer out to organizers, but do NOT interact with the police. do not give them a reason to harass or arrest you, because I promise they will take the opportunity and could possibly ruin your life.
Hadn’t even thought if that. Thank you, will do. 🤝🏾
Edit: And I’m black too. I should have know better. 😔
stay safe out there 🫡🫡
Don’t do that. Never underestimate how violent they can get at the smallest (or even non-existent) provocation.
Treat them like you would a rabid animal.
Gotta know who they can’t hit in the face with a teargas grenade.
IME they try too hard to look like street people, but it doesn’t work because their clothes are clean and they bathed, your average skel substance abuser hasn’t seen a shower in 24+hrs even if they got new donated clothes.
A secret police is something different from officers without uniforms. A secret police is an instrument of the ruling party to oppress opposition and are part of a “justice” system outside of the official one, e.g. secret police can arrest you on whatever charges (don’t have to be revealed) and you’ll be put into a secret prison where your relatives can’t find you. The fact that they don’t wear uniforms goes beyond why regular police goes it: it’s to create an atmosphere of fear that everyone around you could be secret police, and that they can just arrest you, and there’s nothing you can do.
Yes. Secret Police makes people never relax. You never know who’s watching, you never know who’s listening. Your neighbours and teachers could be informants too. Apartment buildings are built with thin walls so you are not safe even within your own home. It’s a constant source of terror.
It’s also why people older than me don’t talk to strangers, and especially, to foreigners.
Last couple of evenings has been cool enough to not have window units running. The neighbor’s drunken bellowing has been off the chain. Yes, I heard it over the AC but without is truly revealing, and impossible to sleep.
Mine gets drunk and talks to people on the phone. When she gets drunk, her soft tissues swell up and she sounds like a troll. That also doesn’t stop her from finding men to get drunk with and have loud sex with, but she never manages to keep them around for long, and I occasionally get a night of drunken crying.
I mean the drinking isn’t the issue. The relief they seek from underlying issues is not the issue. The despair and sadness and rage are problematic. Address the despair and other issues can be resolved.
Apartment buildings are built with thin walls so you are not safe even within your own home.
Pshaw. Next you’ll be claiming that our phones are built to listen to our conversations.
We call the neighbour I mentioned in this thread The Slug. My wife keeps getting a suggestion “Slug removal tips” on YouTube.
I went to Lowe’s the other day and just looked at cabinet/drawer handles - I didn’t touch them or say anything about them. That night when I went to Amazon.com I got a bunch of ads for cabinet handles. I’m assuming they can link my phone to store camera footage, which is better than assuming that they’re just reading minds at this point.
e.g. secret police can arrest you on whatever charges (don’t have to be revealed)
1984 Bail Reform Act
2001 PATRIOT Act
Literally 1984
Sooooo, the NSA, the CIA, the FBI, the DEA…
Take your pick.
secret police can arrest you on whatever charges (don’t have to be revealed) and you’ll be put into a secret prison where your relatives can’t find you
Like the CIA blacksites, Gitmo, the Fed vans that pulled and kidnapped protestors during the BLM protests? Or the fact that police can get away with murder in broad daylight and people who fight it are labeled terrorists who hate the country?
Yeah, plains clothes officer in the US. You’re repeating the meme.
Can’t we just enjoy our anti-American propaganda in peace

Oh so the international FBI, what was it called? ah CIA right
If you’re getting arrested by secret police, then you fight to the death. Otherwise, you’ll spend the rest of your life wishing you did.
Typically they have the guns and you don’t, or if you do they’ll kill you then disappear you rather than the other way around
If that’s the case, it’s gonna happen regardless. That’s the point. You’re either going to die in a “workers prison” or you’re going to die fighting. Might as well hurt someone on your way out right? That’s what I learned in my time in the army. I have gained so god damn much respect for Ukraine in the last 2 years. They’re defending themselves so perfectly, I only wish they had more help.
Same, they’re fighting for us too. Slava Ukraine!
I wish them the best and their freedom soon!
Literally 1984
I think this image should be a little smaller
Fuck, what happened here, lol. Fixed >_<
I can’t believe you’ve done this. You’re fired.
Understandable. I’ll refund you asap.
I’m calling the secret police.
Do it! They can’t unsecretrape you!
That’s what you think.
Well now its on you to explain the situation to the K9 cop as he pulls his dick out.
Instigate the “violent demonstration”. Then quickly walk away. A timeless classic.
