Sounds like you were singled out by someone who supports Russia and sounds more like a hate crime to me more than anything. Sorry about that

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha

As someone who attends music events in New York frequently, the primary concern the security guards care about is that you’re not bringing a gun into the venue. Secondary concern being hard drugs, depending on the venue and act. Msg definitely does not want drugs. Thinking that the underpaid and overworked security staff has a political agenda is absurd when they already have to deal with your bridge and tunnel antics.

Although MSG is owned by that guy who used facial recognition cameras to ban one of the lawyers suing him from attending an event there. Very funny little dystopian anecdote.

Security staff are a subtype of cop. A lesser cop. But they have the brain worms

Of course they do. But I promise you that unarmed security at a mass gathering event like this will not give a shit about 90% of the things going on otherwise they’ll bring K9s to sniff out your drugs. There’s simply too much going on to single people like this. At worst they’ll sexually assault you under the guise of full body check.

Unless you’re at the Super Bowl in which case the cops will have a sniper trained at your forehead at all times.

Undoubtedly. Still profiling and protecting capital using force. I was only trying to add some context to the situation and point out the absurdity that these people would have a political agenda in the form of being a Russian troll or that constitutes a hate crime. These redditors need to touch grass and speak to someone offline.

Many of them do have serious brainworms, but so do plenty of other workers. Security is not cops lol, that’s a serious insult we should not just throw around at anybody. Cops have real power over people and every single one of them has agreed to use that power, violently, to oppress workers. 90% of security does literally nothing and most of the other 10% still say “if the boss tells me to do violence against someone i will say no because I don’t get paid enough for that”

They literally asked if it would be the same for an American flag and the person said yes.

Apparently they’re committing a hate crime against literally everybody.

Putler hates America so it makes sense why his agent would prohibit the flag

Putin’s KGB runs security at MSG. Putin personally called MSG security himself and demanded the couple not be let in after seeing them on the live security footage with a Ukrainian flag.

Putler is so petty.
