That is during the capitol assault. Which is explicitly why he isn't consistent. Where are the "thugs", "terrorists", "anarchists", etc? He's never hesitated to use those terms before. It took him a

I'm not surprised that he's read a prepared measured speech. What I haven't seen, and I would love to see "cherry picked" is the rhetoric I posted but reversed between the two groups. I'll make a bet and say th

Sure, like he called BLM protestors "thugs" and the movement a terrorist organization to calm things down. He's not being diplomatic, that's not a thing he does. He likes things that benefits him, and condemns all things

If you say "We love you, you're special" to violent insurrectionists after the fact, I don't think you need anything more explicit than that.

The cases had no merit, is the many times over proven fact. Having a voice doesn't mean anything you say is cemented truth. Having a voice means you can file a suit. It is either heard or thrown out based on merit. His own appointed ju

Holding people accountable to their actions? I fail to see the dark path we're walking down unless you think they're suggesting public lynching.

You could probably fix that with a small userscript, if so inclined.

I just have to say I strongly disagree, and I've been on the internet for a while (multiple decades). The only reason reddit wasn't overrun by asshats even before more subreddits were banned were due to moderation. The same has be

As a Quest owner, and previous Vive owner, if you can get over the Facebook thing, I would 100% buy the Quest 2 over anything else. The Index might be better, but it costs 2-3x more, and only works on PC, and needs the lighthouses. The hass

No, there has been protests on lockdowns... Trump rallies are not it. He's the president of the US of A, he has actual power to affect things. He just doesn't like responsibility. It's a purely vain exercise. And I'm not

BLM has a purpose, and was despite of covid. Trump rallies are entirely pointless, and everyone there makes a statement of not wearing masks.
