I realize that my comment is now lacking context because koolba's is flagged, so you might think I'm trying to argue about the protests. This is not the case.
Koolba said, paraphrasing from memory, "only the left is violent, and only left-wing leaders refuse to criticize that".
So I posted a news source talking about right-wing violent protest and a right-wing leader refusing to criticize it.
I'm carefully avoiding arguing about the issues here, so I can talk to koolba about their skewed perception of the behavior of the sides.
- koolba 6y agoWhere in anything you linked to do does it indicate that there are conservatives rioting, looting, or burning buildings? There have been many peaceful assemblies of conservative protesters, some legally bearing arms, which interestingly have been condemned by the Democrats. But there are no mass mobs destroying property and causing mayhem. There’s no conservatives defending such behavior because it does not exist. It’s unique to the left. Minneapolis, Kenosha, Oakland, you name it. It’s left wing mobs that destroyed those cities.
- Chris2048 6y agoI disagree with Koolbas claim, I simply disagree that a google result yielding a biased source is proof of anything. I didn't address Koolba since I think the statement so obviously hyperbolic that I didn't believe it was made in good faith. The context of criticizing violence is also unclear, as there is a difference between violence, and counter-violence.
