Watch Spokane Police arrest two vegan protesters outside a restaurant during a heated demonstration on March 6th 2025. Officers charge them with disorderly conduct, referencing a prior restaurant disruption. The activists argue they were peacefully protesting animal abuse and accuse the police of siding with cruelty.

Heated is a bit of a stretch looks like the street was empty, they were shouting at diners through the restaurant windows.

That's the big difference between being unreasonable at people online vs in real life.

Normal people minding their own business just want to be left alone, and they will leave you alone. You break that social contract and things happen.

Online people make a real tempest in a teacup about small things, and due to algorithmic the echo chambers builds.

My experiences on Lemmy almost never match how people act in my real life.
