I just don’t get the need to bring up black lives matter in this context at this time from either side

prolly due to the underwhelming police presence and response to this expected and potentially troublesome large protest event, as compared to the huge shows of force in response to many BLM protests...seems a racial double standard may exist...

and the suspicious actions of some Capitol PD officers who seem to open barriers, fraternize with rioters and stand aside at entrances to let the mob into the buildings, taking selfies...

I dunno...I recall several police chiefs kneeling with, fraternizing with BLM protestors, but they were later criticized by the unions...

all part of the puzzle that should be examined...

wonder if there will be an investigation and Congressional hearings to get to the bottom of it all...pretty sure DOJ can't let Trump off the hook for inciting a riot...

This is nowhere near equivalent or the same thing. Punish both appropriately but at least know the difference. You can’t be that thick.

been watching right wing media too...blaming Antifa... going off on tangents like people complaining about the police response... we should prolly do ourselves a favor and avoid opinion spreaders among "media" sources...fact checking is essential


did you hear that the Wall Street Journal, slightly right leaning media source trusted by peeps on the right and the left...published an editorial urging Trump to step down?

Even if you love the man which is hard for me to comprehend the country would be better off if at a minimum he shut up and didn’t say one more word, sat there for two weeks or sat somewhere for two weeks, then got the hell out and remained quiet for a while but he doesn’t care what’s best for the country he never has

I just think he gave up his ability to do anything positive long ago but certainly now. He should just do nothing. But it’s all about him so stay tuned. He’s sick.

I tried to support him but gave up a few weeks ago... the election is done and final.. but I don't like how it went down.. it was by far a normal election.. but it is what it is... it's only 4 years, we'll survive... 😟

the last one was an attempt to overturn a legitimate election, by the loser of that election, based on falsehoods and lies...

Good lord. Just keeps getting clearer. I had no idea of the extent.

Remember “this coup needs to be squashed” = being part of a lynch mob. I think the break may have happened.

We live in statistically the safest time to live in history.

Everyone now, even the poor can have the same basic luxeries.

The worlds' information is literally at your fingertips.

And people want to f*ck that up.
