Enjoy continuing to deny reality, I'm sure it brings you some bizarre form of joy in your life. Most of these people are waiting for orders by their "glorious

  What was the name of the officer beaten to death? Are you talking about Brian Sicknick, the man who died of natural causes? Since you just browse HN, here's a link you may enjoy https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26867634 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26867634 My criticism of your posts is that you are basing this off of an extreme minority of people. The media would like you to believe they exist in great numbers, to keep you afraid and engaged with their product. You are certainly correct that they do exist; however I firmly do not believe they exist in the numbers that you suggest.

    I bet the next thing you're going to tell me is that his body just "did this", naturally of course. https://imgur.com/a/PJoqdjS https://imgur.com/a/PJoqdjS Oh yeah - can't forget this one either. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QrrrX5oBADA https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QrrrX5oBADA Probably just undercover liberals. Those security forces were trying to give the warmest of welcomes to enter aside from those few crisis actors at the front of the mob. Linking me to a HN thread in which the first comments are praising a Christian Zionist also isn't a great help to the cause of your reasoning. You clearly don't want to be a reasonable person and have a reasonable discussion. > The media would like you to believe they exist in great numbers, to keep you afraid and engaged with their product. Don't know why you're mentioning this at all. Has nothing to do with the discussion, nor do I believe anybody who frequents HN is unaware of this. > You are certainly correct that they do exist; however I firmly do not believe they exist in the numbers that you suggest. If you'd like to get into how many states you've traveled to, what parts of those states you've stayed in, the duration you stayed in them and how social you were during those times, the amount of people/friends you have scattered across the nation in various regions & how often you discuss these matters with them, how long you've spent in/with/around any of the major organized religious sects of the US - feel free I guess. Aside from that, I'm going to conclude you really don't have the scope you think you do based on what you've already stated.

  You have my sincerest sympathies, I can see the onslaught of corporate media coverage and social media engagement has exhausted you to the point where you aren't even able to muster a scintilla of scepticism anymore. Nobody was beaten to death on Jan 6th, Brian Sicknick died of "natural causes". NYT, Wapo etc have retracted this misinformation but as you can see the horse has bolted on that front [1][2]. You respond to a post about CNN, question the 'urgency' of the criticism and then claim that you've made 'no comment' about CNN coverage. Read your own post, you directly claim it is less important than your perceived threat of right wing extremism. The fact that you replied this way shows how mired you are in partisan politics. The opposite to CNN isn't Fox News. A few tweets isn't going to change my mind about the extent of the threat. Trump was able to rustle up around 3000 crazy people to breach the Capitol in a nation of 300+ million. I would wager Al Gore would have been able to get people to do this if he was as deranged as Trump. It really tells us nothing. As for your tweets showing violence at the Olympia protest, am I supposed to believe this is representative? Because if I am then I'd have to conclude far left extremism is the greater threat considering a counter-protestor shot someone. To be clear, I am not denying the existence of extremists I am questioning whether they are as numerous as journalists are trying to convince you they are. You can ridicule people for raising questions about the FBI's involvement in Jan 6th all you want but the only people to blame for this are the FBI themselves. They have shown themselves perfectly willing to celebrate foiling plots that they essentially created whether it was after 9/11 or as recently as the Whitmer 'assassination plot' which was 50% FBI agents and organised at an FBI funded event [3]. Everyone should treat what the CIA, NSA and FBI say with extreme scepticism, regardless of your politics.

Once again, the fact you make the presumption that any HN user doesn't already do this to the extreme is hilarious. lol @ the rest of your rambling in general Go touch grass and please get a credible education, it will help you in life.
