Alleged context (feel free to correct if you have info in comments):

After Israeli Maccabi hooligans terrorized Amsterdam, the Dutch government demonized the pro-Palestine movement and banned protests. People came to protest anyways (peacefully)

The police arrested peaceful protesters and put them in a bus. They were driven to a parking lot. The police released them from the bus in a parking lot near a station.

While the protesters were walking to the station the police started hitting them. Allegedly for not moving fast enough.

When you have to work this hard to maintain your worldview, it's not a good sign.

I believe in democracy and rule of law.

Utter non sequitur. This is something someone says to bulwark their worldview to themselves, not to convince others of the merits of their view. You're just proving my point.

The lies we tell ourselves are not convincing to others.
