That’s not a meme, that’s Propaganda.
It’s also libel made with actual malice.
Why? It’s already embarrassing enough to be arrested

Enforcing the law is embarrassing? Breaking the law is embarrassing.
And my point isn’t that she was necessarily breaking the law. I’m simply stating that it’s already an embarrassing enough act to be restrained and then on top of that have images of you in a vulnerable state circulate around the internet.

I’m not saying it’s perfect. It has its share of flaws, but rules and law create order. I’m not a simp for US law, but without it, injustice would run even more rampant. If you claim to love justice then you must also, by principle, be in favor of some sort of law system that enforces it.
Depends on the reason for the arrest. If I get zip-tied and dragged off the streets for saying mean things about orange man, I won’t be the embarrassed one.
No I certainly would agree with that. But being restrained against your will and having your records publicized about being an offender of the law certainly doesn’t bode well for your own public image or on employment applications.
How is it embarrassing to be arrested for protesting?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nekima_Levy_ArmstrongThe act of being arrested is not particularly fun. You know, being restrained and walked off like an animal in some sense. Depends what it’s for in general. But it’s the public image of it. And then the repercussions of having to deal with follow up court work, possible jail time and it being a future talking point of a potential employer. It’s just not really something to be proud of.
That is a rule in general, with exceptions of course.
But my point stands, that the act is embarrassing enough already, especially if it’s publicized. So having your face edited to make it look even more humiliating is worse.
