The problem we face today is that the protest groups of yesterday that protested for freedom is the opposite of the protest groups today that protest in favor of oppression.

I feel exactly the same way. And the worst part is, they think they are in the right and are morally superior.

  Protests in the past were against something that even if you disagreed with the people, their philosophical foundation was likely agreeable. The core of these were "freedom", freedom from being forced _to do_ something, freedom from being prevented from doing something, freedom from having something taken from you without just cause, freedom to have your day in court. Now protests seem to be "I don't want _you_ to be able to say something", "I don't want you too be able to do something","I want to force you too do what I want." It's like protesters today are working directly for our oppressors and doing their work for them, and they don't even realize it.

  Or maybe the elections really were illegitimate, and you'd never know because you've never looked at sources that weren't on the same side as the party allegedly rigging the elections?

    Non-partisan courts did and found nothing. At a certain point, one must just have faith in the system. Also the sources 'weren't on the same side as the party allegedly rigging the elections,' i.e. Republican officials in Georgia and Arizona claimed there was no rigging.

    That sentence was hard to follow, but it sounds like you're suggesting there are legitimate "sources" that have proof the 2020 election was rigged? I'm putting "sources" in extremely heavy quotation marks because there's absolutely no evidence with any basis in reality that can actually claim that. The biggest questions I ask myself all the time: What level of deprogramming would it take to get the victims of this delusion to acknowledge the election wasn't rigged? How do flat earthers get deprogrammed? Where do you even begin? What's the strategy? What's the success rate? Is it even possible?

    Or maybe they looked closely at the sources claiming illegitimacy and found them to be complete BS.
