What's scary is that the Cabinet and Congress are standing back and breaking their oath to defend the US Constitution, allowing the President to lead a coup against the United States.
- adventured 6y agoThere is no attempted coup occurring at all. And it is not an insurrection. It's a protest. When the left does it, even if they're hyper violent, it's called a peaceful protest. When the right does it, it's a coup and insurrection. Yeah right.
- dragonwriter 6y ago> When the left does it Wait, the left forcibly occupied the Capitol at the behest of the defeated candidate with the overt goal of using threat of violence to get the election results disregarded? When?
- dafoex 6y agoWith all the riots that have happened in 2020, it feels they struck while the world was weak in order to hold countries to ransom. Whether that was the goal or not isn't that important, but it has certainly had the effect of making countries around the world spend more money on policing when they could have spent that money more effectively controlling the pandemic.
- odessacubbage 6y agomaybe if the left were willing to actually challenge power instead of sacking churches and burning down wendy's in poor neighborhoods we'd have a credible path to healthcare by now. the lesson of 2020 & the omnibus are that if politicians are not scared they will ignore you.

- netsharc 6y agoIt's incredible how easy it is for you to wear reality-bending goggles and throw generalities like "No one complained when there were fires and property damage during BLM protests", and that what happened today was "peaceful". You can grasp the next "fact": that the Trumpites were peaceful, this was an Antifa false flag operation (you can find doctored evidence of this on Twitter). If you can lie to yourself about that, then you can go to sleep at night feeling that you're the moral one, that you're the one still on the correct side of humanity...
- dafoex 6y agoFor what its worth, I think all of them were in the wrong. Whether you're armed with Molotov cocktails or conventional firearms, you're armed and a threat. The blm/antifa riots were just as much riots as what happened today. Everyone involved in those events that did not disperse when things got violent should be treated as a criminal, regardless of who's "side" they are on.
