Yes, I feel there's a very significant difference between an attempt to overthrow the Republic and establish monarchy with deliberate and explicit murderous intent, and protest gatherings that became violent after police began firing weapons into previously peaceful crowds.
I'm being completely serious here, how rotten by both-sidesism does your brain have to be to think that "prosecute the police" is a mantra just as blameworthy as "kill Pence, kill Pelosi"?
- h2odragon 4y ago> how rotten by both-sidesism Was "prosecute the police" the message you got from burning police stations? Or would you agree that the violent acts were the responsibility of a few individuals with probably more radical motives who should be punished for those actions, as individuals? And not the responsibility of the movement as a whole? Doesn't that also apply to Jan6? And any other protest?
