> Five people died as a result of these actions. I can guarantee more died as a direct result of BLM "protests" in 2020. Nevermind billions of dollars of damage that fell on the shoulders of minority and lower class communities. I have a hard time imagining that someone concerned about insurrection would unabashedly gloss over CHAZ/CHOP as though it's not a cut-and-dry act of secession. I guess you support secession.

I don't support CHAZ and I never said I did. Claiming to secede for a couple of blocks in a neighborhood in Seattle, is incredibly stupid and dangerous. My point here is the scope of things, armed insurrectionists stormed the capitol building. Three pipe bombs were recovered and disarmed. What do you think would have happened if the person who laid the pipe bombs had gotten to Nancy Pelosi? Further the President of the united states was pleased by these actions and told them he loved them. He refused to call the national guard and the department of defense initially refused several requests. Somehow, the VP who doesn't have the authority to, called in the national guard. CHAZ was not supported or incited by Joe Biden. And CHAZ did not threaten our democracy or interrupt the democratic process.

  > My point here is the scope of things My point is the scope of things too. There was complete chaos across the country last year. With many reminiscent if not worse scenes of complete disregard for public spaces and institutions. The media was practically giddy about justifications of why we shouldn't be opposing the destruction of statues of the founding fathers. Freaking abolitionist statues were targeted. There is unquestionably more total damage, building burned to the ground, etc from what happened last year. I'm not saying what occurred at the Capitol is to be dismissed - quite the contrary. What I'm saying is that it's like one half of the country just woke up to the idea that mass political violence and bedlam should be denounced.

    How are you conscionably comparing the treatment of public spaces vs the attempted physical violence against democratically elected representatives carrying out their statutory duty? Are you just a total idiot or a neo-nazi?
