Anyone got some other candidates? To me 1/6 is the perfect encapsulation of how dumb US politics is.
(a) 500 MAGA dork AutoZone shift managers in Party City revolutionary-cosplay costumes, spazzing out in the capitol, accomplishing nothing, eventually falling over from obesity sweats, and being escorted lovingly out of the building by sympathetic cops when they're done rioting
(b) Liberals nationwide spazzing out like this actually matters, as if the US has a "democracy", and the building that produces homicidal and genocidal legislation five days a week is somehow being tarnished by Cletus and Jethro pissing in Nancy Pelosi's WORLD'S GREATEST GRANDMA coffee mug
Re 1: most of them were petit bourgeois anyway. Less Autozone shift managers, more jet ski dealers.
Autozone shift managers can’t afford to fly to DC and get a hotel room at a moment’s notice.
And cops. Whole lot of police decided to do a little insurrection, you know, for fun.
