What can they do? 

In the movie as far as I understood all countries in the UN decided that the avengers have to accept their rules. If the avengers don't do it they will be treated like criminals. Actually they jailed couple of them Cap. America freed them in the end and went underground.

Iron man accepted the Rules of the UN.

I remember seeing few months ago when the protests were going on 3 guys sitting on a bench and talking then the police walk up to them and just start beating them. Then they get bored and walk away and the guys just stand up dust themselves off and sit back down and continue talking. 

It was posted here. 

And there was so much homophobic slurs used by the protestors it was kinda shocking. 

Do you think something changed and they became more violent or there weren't so many cameras then so people didn't know?

Id consider not allowing marriage to be an oppression. I guess different times no one cared about it back then. 

Great video btw. It was funny to see someone under dictatorship say they are free.

Yea, I remember the video, that was in Serbia. I lack the words of how unforgivable and pointless that was. I think someone interpreted the attempt of the parliament breach as a terrorist attack and gave the order to clear up the space at any costs.

This was different, it was back in 2015, I think the government knew the protests were "infiltrated" and there was a plan to bring the government down, so they were actually extremely careful and vigilant of what they were doing, both in their actions and their speeches, probably, the opposite order was given in this case, or so do I interpret it. The point was to lock the rioters in a controllable space and endure until they got tired. It was quite bizarre to watch and it served the government for a little.

There were the occasional attacks by the police ofc, but only when protestors got close and tried to take their shields. As I remember, way more cops got hurt than protestors, but the media twisted it all around, edited the videos to fit the narrative of police brutality, there were some actors in the protest groups, deliberately trying to cause trouble, get hit, get recorded and blow it out of proportion as if that one glancing hit, that touched their arm was a hit from a Halberd. So there is that.

Btw regarding the gay marriage, that was a difficult card to pass, there is a lot of orthodox christian population around here, especially in the older generations, they are a solid voting body for the demo-christian party. The church is also very close with the government, they wont allow this. So idk if it was a political move, or an ideological one, but no hell were they to allow it.

The thing is, the riots and all the "bring the government down" tactics succeeded.
The stage blue-orange government fell and now we have stage red instead.
