Disrupt what though? The Idea that this lil zoomed in snippet of a moment of two skinny kids lives is something we should be making macro sized judgements and opinions on? Sure. I’ll disrupt that.
I think if anyone sees it occuring in any scenario, or to “either side” we should all endeavor to call it out.

So? Cars and trucks are used by some idiots to kill people. Does it make any sense for that reason to start burning cars and trucks? Some people misrepresent the US Constitution. Does that mean it makes sense to burn copies of that?
The whole post-fascist period is one of clear and present danger. Consequently, true pacification requires the withdrawal of tolerance before the deed, at the stage of communication in word, print, and picture. Such extreme suspension of the right of free speech and free assembly is indeed justified only if the whole of society is in extreme danger. I maintain that our society is in such an emergency situation, and that it has become the normal state of affairs. Different opinions and ‘philosophies’ can no longer compete peacefully for adherence and persuasion on rational grounds…
You didn’t know? In the beginning was the big bang. Matter vs anti matter. For some as yet unexplainable reason, Matter won. Matter can be burned to create light. Ever since that first victory of light over dark, white supremacy has existed and all things non white have been oppressed.

Not a separate and distinct group, such as rioters.
