Can you stop exaggerating for dramatic effect? You can agree with them all you want, but occupying public places for weeks in a highly disruptive normal is a threat, yes. Anywhere on the planet, try pulling the shit those people did (half of what they were protesting about didn't exist, and the other half was obviously misinformed nonsense fundamentally misunderstanding a pandemic; they were obviously fed, and quite publicly sponsored by, the American far-right nonsense politics), and you'll see what happens.
As members of society, we cannot condone a violent and disruptive occupation of public places for weeks on end. Even if we agree with the cause (and to be clear - nobody sane could agree with their cause).

- sofixa 2y agoAnarchy might be fine for you, but it isn't for most. Hell, many people can barely tolerate a regular protest, let alone a multi week aggressively disruptive one occupying a public space.
