Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!

Europe does this regularly too. It came to mainstream knowledge when a protestor parachuted into the Germany - France euro match in 2020. People watching the spectacle noticed a sniper in the very top area over looking the stadium. When this broke in the news they said that snipers are regularly at events that large. They are anti-terrorism measures, according to the EU.
