        I really appreciate the link to a story on this because I hate out of context video. But I really wish they had used a different outlet like Mastodon or Bluesky, I hate giving any traffic to Xwitter.

        for real, who watches this video and thinks “nah, riot police would never do that - I demand a source” 🤦‍♀️

        EDIT: reading TingoTenga’s comment history, I wonder if they were intending to be sarcastic or humorous? Or maybe they are just responding to the title of the post and not the video?

          With how pervasive AI generated video is now, you can’t imagine doubting the veracity of this vid?

            It would be different if people started floating away or growing extra arms, it’s not hard to find real footage of cops being assholes

            even if AI generated videos are increasingly common, there was nothing about this video that required suspension of disbelief or made me think it might be fake
