Friends who often follow international news should know that the United States has not been very peaceful lately...
On May 25, George Freud, an African-American man in Minneapolis, Minnesota, died of violence by local police after being suspected of using a counterfeit banknote.
Now it is the Internet age, the British Queen likes to raise corgi is well known, not to mention this happened in broad daylight, the process was recorded by the surrounding cameras and passers-by, and posted to the Internet, and soon spread throughout the United States network.
The official approach to the incident was the dismissal of the police officers concerned, followed by their arrest and prosecution.
But this did not calm the anger of the people, because of the long-standing negative sentiment in the hearts of the people after the epidemic, the rising unemployment rate, and the long-standing problem of racial discrimination in the United States, Freud's death became a fuse, triggering a nationwide demonstration that now spreads in more than 20 states.
The streets of the United States, which have been dead for a long time because of the epidemic, suddenly became lively.
The streets of many cities in the United States have gathered a large number of demonstrators, and even a large number of demonstrators have surrounded the White House.
At the same time, some people are smashing and looting in the name of the parade, and they have turned the real-life city into Gotham City, which represents "chaos" in film and television works.
Donald Trump, the current president of the United States who is good at "Twitter governance", on the one hand, expressed his condolences for Floyd's death, on the other hand, he also frantically confronted the excited netizens on Twitter, saying that he would never tolerate such behavior and would send the National Guard to maintain law and order.
Just as Trump and netizens were happily scolding each other, a hacking group called The Anonymous suddenly released a video that further intensified the contradictions between the demonstrators and the US government.
In this video, Anonymous claims that the problem of violent law enforcement by police officers across the United States is very serious, and that the Minneapolis police department is among the worst.
"Police brutality and murder are widespread problems in the United States"
According to Anonymous, Floyd's death is just the tip of the iceberg of police brutality in Minneapolis, where 193 people have died as a result of police brutality in the past 20 years and have made headlines almost every year in recent years.
More incidents were buried because only the officers involved knew the truth.
Many people may not be surprised by the fact that reports of violent police enforcement in the United States are reported on the news from time to time, but when the hidden problems are so nakedly exposed to the public, especially at such a sensitive moment, the contradictions between the public and the police are further intensified.
As a result, many demonstrators stormed the police, and the police counterattacked in self-defense and arrested the demonstrators.
And that's not all, after exposing evidence of violent law enforcement by Minneapolis police, Anonymous released a 2016 legal document.
It accuses current U.S. President Donald Trump and U.S. investor Jeffrey Epstein ( who is one of Trump's close friends ) of allegedly committing rape, coercive sexual acts, sexual abuse, unlawful imprisonment and other crimes.
More seriously, these crimes were directed against some minor victims, and as soon as this document appeared, it was reported by major media.
At this time, Trump is just ready to put the hat of smashing and looting in the demonstration to some ultra-left organizations.

Seeing that this fire burned on his body, he couldn't sit still in a hurry, so he quickly sent a Weibo, the content was very short, just two words "FAKE NEWS!" (Fake News).
Immediately, someone replied to Trump's allegations of sexual harassment and sexual assault against minors below.
However, it was soon pointed out that the documents were forged, but the statement itself could not determine whether they were true or false.

More people then posted intimate photos of Trump with an underage girl when he was not president, including a "group photo" of him and Jeffrey Epstein, in which he put his hands around a little girl and kissed her hair.
In the eyes of many netizens who do not know the truth, this is the evidence of Trump's pedophilic behavior, but the little girl in the picture that was passed to the pulp is actually Trump's daughter Ivanka Trump, and this photo is a composite of two photos...
At present, there is no expert identification result from the accusation document, at least the photo must be fake, so the authenticity of the content of this part of the allegation is still debatable.
But one thing is for sure, Donald Trump did have a good personal relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, after all, Trump was a well-known figure in the American business circle like Epstein before he became president of the United States.

Jeffrey Epstein, on the other hand, was a recorded sex offender or a sex offender with a relationship with an underage girl.
While serving his sentence in prison in August 2019, he was found to have committed suicide in prison, and there are many doubts that he was murdered.
It is precisely because such a relationship exists that when anonymous people posted "evidence" about Trump pedophilia, many people chose not to investigate the truth and believe it.
Speaking of this well-known hacking organization Anonymous, its origin is a forum called 4chan in the United States, where if a user uses the forum's default ID when registering, his name on the forum will be displayed as Anonymous.
Some people found that "anonymous" is a good way to hide their identity, so slowly these people got together, calling themselves anonymous, and the members of the organization have many senior computer experts and senior engineers.
At the beginning, the members of the organization will only carry out some entertainment and prank activities in the community, and the pursuit of the organization is "Internet freedom".
But in 2008, they launched an campaign against the Church of Scientology, which "attempts to control information on the Internet" rather than against the Church itself.
For the first time, they hacked the homepage of the Scientology Church and uploaded a video warning the Scientology Church.
In the video, the anonymous also uttered the organization's slogan:
We are Anonymous, we are anonymous,
We are a Legion, we are legions,
We do not forgive, we will not forgive,
We do not forget, we will not forget,
Expect us. Looking forward to us.
Subsequently, Anonymous also demonstrated near Scientology church facilities around the world, all wearing Guy Fox masks of V," the protagonist of the movie V-Vendetta, which became the symbol of Anonymous.
It is said that at first they thought about using Batman costumes as an organizational symbol, but later found that this thing was too expensive, far less cheap and affordable than the Guy Fox mask.
Since then, Anonymous has done many great things, including cracking down on child pornography sites and stealing accounts of ISIS organizations on related social platforms.
With these actions, Anonymous gradually became the largest hacking organization on the Internet,
At the same time, Internet public opinion began to make "Anonymous" the embodiment of Robin Hood-style freedom and justice (perhaps young people still think they are cool), believing that "Anonymous" is believing in the truth.
But this incident also exposed a very important trust problem in the Anonymizer organization: Anonymous has no clear organizational rules and leaders, and anyone can take action in the name of Anonymous.
As a result, the so-called anonymous "official" accounts on social media platforms are also managed by people belonging to different ideas and beliefs.
It now seems that anonymous people sometimes spread some half-truths and half-lies to achieve their goals, because they know that the media and the public are most attracted to something, like a pond with countless koi, and it is easy to destroy the calm of the pond with a handful of bait.
Those who have fed the fish must have experienced: the carp in the pond do not care whether you sprinkle bread crumbs or wood chips, they still rush up.
The true purpose of these "anonymous people" is unknown, perhaps to express political demands, perhaps to be secretly manipulated by interest groups, and anyway, the bad reviewers feel that it is far from the "Internet freedom" they claimed at the beginning.
For us, in addition to watching these "anonymous" make waves on foreign social media with the heart of watching the hilarity, don't forget to regain a sense of awe – you never know what kind of purpose online messages are on your timeline.
