@pthenq1 I will take 0.0001% of republicans storming a capitol in response to the police pulling their people out of a crowd and beating them in front of them (the events that were happening right before the crowd surged) anyday compared to democrats where 50%+ elected a segregationist who didnt want schools to turn into a "racial jungle"

@freemo they really are going to try and milk the 10-something people who walked in the building for all its worth aren't they @pthenq1

@freemo @pthenq1 i particularly love how BLM burning down buildings and people attacking federal courthouses for months was "mostly peaceful" but less than a platoon of civilians walks in a building (with minimal property damage; a window and some disheveled furniture) is

- worse than pearl harbor [sic]
- a violent insurrection [sic]
- worth stationing 20k soldiers who didn't even get a basic barracks for weeks and still do nothing other than be seen in photos for fear porn

@icedquinn

Not sure I'd blame that on BLM so much as democrats and liberals.. but yea.. My city was literally so bad the skys were black from fires for weeks as democrats and liberals burned government buildings down, and that was across the whole nation... what happened at the capitol doesnt even come close to that.

@pthenq1

@freemo @pthenq1 mfw people want to cancel the FSF because stallman's weird past but BLM gets free passes despite having a treasurer who is a convicted terrorist (literally convicted of terrorism for bombing the capitol(

@icedquinn
It is simple: MLB breaking things is property damage. Bad. Etc.

Trumpists storming the capitol looking for targets to kill is insurrection. Because just to start it is not private property. It is the temple of the democracy. And they were looking for public officials to kill them.

Clearly is a no no no no. And the fact you guys cannot see the difference is very concerning.

@freemo

@icedquinn

Milking and exaggerating things to absolute absurdity is pretty much all they do really. So yea.

@pthenq1

@freemo yeah. 0.0001%. Like the ones working in extermination camps in Germany on the 40s. It does not matter. Now, today, republicans are the bad guys.

0.0001% tried to destroy democracy and 99.0009% are explaining why that insurrection was not an insurrection. :/

The difference is: the segregationist changed his mind and saw the error of his acts. Now it is doing something completely different.

It is not the case of the republicans. They are still explaining why the insurrection was not treason to the Constitution.

They do not see their wrongs in their acts... Today. Now. In this very moment...

@pthenq1 Notice you said nothing about the months of burning down federal buildings the democrats did before the election...

@freemo oh. That was bad. Violence must be canalized through politics. That is why we elect representatives and yada yada. To solve the violence (no the conflict) in a peaceful way.

So imagine when a party lose the elections and their supporters decide to storm the final election counting! How democratic is that!

@pthenq1 maybe then you shouldn't have voted for the two absolute worst choices given the nature of the violence... the violence was about black oppression and police brutality and who do you vote for, a segragationist president who started his whole career to keep segregation alive, and his VP a police officer whith a horrific human rights record... literally the two worst people if you actually wanted to solve anything.

@freemo It does not matter what people say.
It does not matter what people do.
What it matters are the consequences of their acts.

And the consequences of Mr. Biden acts are far more benign than the consequences of Mr. Trump.

In fact, the insurrection of January 6th damaged like a lot. And it can be mapped to the consequences of his acts.

But again, the problem, the big problem is that you guys do not realize how bad it was! It was very very bad!

@pthenq1 Are you kidding me.. are you seriously going to sit there and say the consequence of Biden prolonging segregation by years is benign... we are talking segregation here, you know, legally forcing black kids to be barred from white places! You think him spending over a decade promoting (and winning) that is benign... dude you lost it.

@freemo Biden 2021 is not Biden 1970.

It is ok to follow a project. Do you know who we all followed before?:

George Washington

George, before being George Washington, was a farmer in a plantation.

I think we could all agree that everybody was following the leadership of Washington and nobody believed or saw him as a farmer of a plantation.

Same with Biden: President Biden 2021 is not Mr. Biden 1970.

Follow the ideas. No the man.

@pthenq1 Did you really just compare a farmer, who put his life on the line for years to create a nation, and then won... to biden.. a man who in the 70s was pro segregation, under obama he was ok murdering US citizens in drone attacks, and during the election said "if you dont vote for me you ain't black".. and you compare him to washington.... lololol... get out of here with that nonsense.

@pthenq1 @freemo Well actually you do, the violence was all Antifa and BLM.

@nanook
In the Capitol? Nope.
