    I can’t believe people thought that was actually “violently storming” the capitol

    It was a protest. Methinks you’ve never seen an actual violent crowd

        That wasn’t violence. Why they did it and the Trump thing is stupid but an actually violent attack would have been actually successful at purging the congressional ranks.

        And fuck off, .world mods, me saying what I wish had happened isn’t a call for violence

          So as long as an attack isn’t successful, it isn’t violent? Then the attempted assassination of Trump also wasn’t violent. Just a peaceful protest.

            Violence would be the Oklahoma City bombing. That actually accomplished something and was great. We need much more of that.

            Jan 6th couldn’t be successful because there wasn’t actual violence. The fact nobody was killed, not even the cops, shows it was all bullshit (except for that stupid girl who was killed for lack of shooting back)

            It’s the same disconnect from reality as the guy who shot at Trump thinking an AR was an “high powered rifle for killing” like it’s always portrayed when it’s totally wrong and appropriate for that shot. He was a moron and if he’d actually studied at all Trump would be dead. We can only hope the next attempt is successful. There’s still time for Biden too.

                Violence does something. It eliminates enemy combatants or resources. A protest doesn’t do shit

                    You fucking idiots who argue “anything done by the Right no matter how tame is violence, and anything done by the Left no matter how abusive or violent is righteous” are apparently all over this platform. I joined this app cause I was curious about this platform that claimed to be Reddit Lite, but now I see this place is just an echo chamber for Left-leaning gaslighting narcissists.

                    You won’t even acknowledge that a right-wing protest in which no one attempted to perpetrated an act of violence is not “violence”, or acknowledge that you are blatantly determining what constitutes violence solely upon the political party that someone claims, and not upon the actions being perpetrated and then gaslighting people about it. So, go fuck yourselves. 😘

          Ah yes, I remember when they peacefully bludgeoned that police officer.

          Sorry, my bad. Shouldn’t have given you the benefit of the doubt in assuming that you were a troll and not just braindead.

          Yeah, I guess Michael Fanone, the officer who got brain damage, burns, a heart attack and PTSD, after being beaten and given electric shocks by the crowd, was just failing to perceive the peacefulness of the situation.
