So this is the unity you speak of?

@SecondJon Who is this directed at?
@freemo yeah, I really didn't provide any context..... Not sure I have a fully formulated idea yet...
At the moment thinking of the emails I got from my senator and representative (both dems) saying that Trump must be forcefully removed from office hours/days before his term is over, shortly after he earned more votes than anyone in any previous election, and after he's already committed to a peaceful transition of power.
There's a lot more that seems to fit into the theme of, maybe now that the left had won power, using that immediately against those who disagree. Left riots left to continue for months, the single local peaceful protest this week for Trump apparently shut down. The moves of the left run tech companies....
Everything seems to be about dividing and accusing and punishing any who don't align. Resistance is futile, unity of the borg collective.
Just some early morning half-baked thoughts.
@SecondJon The bigger issue to me is that he didnt ask the people who stormed the capitol to be violent and in fact once there were signs of them being violent he got on the official tv broadcast for potus and told them to stop being violent and go home...
So even if we condemn what happened at the capital it is clear that trump was against the violence and asked for it to stop.
With that said trying to force his removal is more likely to incite violence than to stop it.
@SecondJon What caused the violence from the right is the same thing that causes the violence from the left... not being heard.
I dont think the elections were rigged, but a huge number of people do. There should have been serious and hard hitting investigations, the result of which would have likely shown there was no fraud. But to completely dismiss it to the point of not even investigating stokes the fires and the end result is what we have here.
It is no different than the riots around police brutality, no one was listening and police werent being tried for their crimes and no serious investigation into their wrong doings were being held, so people rioted because they felt they werent being heard or considered.
If Trump won 74 million and voting incidence increased by 2%, a reasonable number of growth, then Biden pulled in only 57 million votes.
Math and observed, known behavior make this election suspect.
Whether the suspicion is valid or not isnt the point. Enough people think it is that it is worth a proper investigation even if i personally doubt it would uncover anything. It was negligent not to do those investigations to the extend that the public demanded them.
They achieved the outcome they sought—the ousting of Trump. Since they control the propaganda machine—news media—they have the means to keep telling the people the election is legit.
Why would they allow an investigation into their own dirty tricks?
That is the the true point for anyone to see.
Mathematically, the election result can not be true. Politically, it is.
This is to where the ruling class people of the USA have fallen in the 21st century.
No longer is the context USA first. The context now is this: expand the global consumer base to as many billions as possible.
The goal to achieve it remains: The equalization of labor rates. The way to achieve that still remains: making the USA resident worker much poorer and transfering that income to the rest of the world that can be lifted.
@freemo Agreed. What stood out to me on that day was that Twitter blocked retweets of his call to go home and that we just have peace.
For all his unhelpful whining, he didn't incite and called everyone to be lawful and to go home once unlawful things happened.
So Trump didn't cause the reaction. I think the left gaining power is what's caused it. And we have long years ahead of the assault on non compliance.
