#2I know politics isn't the usual HN topic, but I think this goes beyond politics at this point. Until I saw this list, I had no idea how out of control this situation has gotten here.
I'm saddened for my country and hope that this can be a turning point for all of us.

#3It would be good to stick these videos somewhere where they can't be taken down.

#4Try building an app around it with glideapps.com for easier consumption by journalists, activists, etc., I tried to add it to my drive so I could build it but your settings will not allow me to do it

One of the threads that was eye-opening for me was Greg Doucette's (a lawyer in North Carolina among other things) ongoing Twitter thread with Pics/Video of police brutality as it relates to peaceful protesters/bystanders.
It's currently at 500+ instances of police brutality. https://twitter.com/greg_doucette/status/1272306977872453634

#8Most posts on this subject keep getting pushed off of the front page by mods. It's pretty sad to watch, especially with the number of posts about coronavirus. They're both major issues, but one is nerdier than the other so it gets to stay.

#9Don't get pushed over by police and your skull cracked open, the president will literally label you a domestic terrorist while you are in the hospital unable to defend yourself.

Although mods do perform many such actions, generally political posts are flagged quickly by normal users, indicating that they don't want to see them either
