Especially the reaction that Democrats had to it.
the reaction that Democratsts had to it.
yeah, they decided that the who happily let into the capitol was deserving of more money and weapons for their "bravery"
if it was a mob of radicals instead of reactionaries there would have been thousands of deaths instead of ... what was it, 5?
Yeah I remember leftists were like getting jokerfied watching chuds get toured in by the feds after the BLM protesters had been getting tear gassed, beaten and shot by swat amored cops for protesting racist murder.
It was a palette cleanser, because all the libs had to perform anti-cop behavior due to the BLM protests. Now they can go back to bootlicking.
I really want to know what they actually believe happen. Did they give the cops money for protection? Are they just that brainwormed? I want to know.
Was it even five? I know there was the one cop that actually got the shit beat out of him, the lady that got shot through a window, and the man that tased his balls. I thought most of the other deaths were just cops offing themselves from PTSD or some BS the media was pushing.
There was that lady with the gadsen flag who died from being tread on
They were sooooooooo upset about the zipties! Omg remember how many zooms there were on that?
It's for the best those zipties didn't get used, that said. A lot of those chuds were actively looking for AOC in particular for... predictable reasons.
Everything since then has just been ignoring the 800lb gorilla in the room that the United States is a joke country for idiots
the worst attack on our democracy
somebody spilled a slushie and the floor was sticky for weeks
A slushy? A man fucking died, alright? He tasered his own balls and died. Still laughing now, asshole?
Someone did apparently take a whole ass shit on Pelosi's desk, so at least we got that.
Only 2nd to Paul Pelosi getting whacked by a Canadian Rightist, with a hammer.
Remember Via Getty? Remember how happy he looked when he stole that lectern?
Still remember everyone lauding that for luring the mob around the building to the tune of Yakety Sax
Ahem. It was much more similar to Scooby-Doo. People running in and out of doors lining a corridor. Things of this nature.
MAGA gets let that far in
But a black dental hygienist in a nonviolent crisis, alone except for her baby in a carseat, only got as far as the northeast corner of the Capitol grounds
Attack-theater on our democracy-theater
Literally all they did was loot some art, break some shit, and spread feces and urine in several hallways (yes, that happened, they smeared literal shit on the walls)
Oh they are a big deal usually, but you can't really stage a fascist coup in a country that is already fash lol.
I agree, but imo that shit will happen with or without a coup. They're already banning trans people without much push back from democrats. They can make it worse without a coup because they're already technically in power.
Who is worse? Frothing fascists, or the people pandering to their every whim for cynical, self serving reasons? I suppose the frothing fascists because they have an ideology, but the outcome is exactly the same.
So you think Republicans wouldn't do progroms if they thought it would net them 0.1% more votes? They crossed every other 'unthinkable' line so far if they thought it would.
Slight rephrase: The outcome is the same, but will arrive slower, but also with far bigger certainty.
No I'm saying mainstream American politics is already that bad. DeSantis already called for the eradication of trans people and laws are changing to reflect that. We already have concentration camps at the boarder. Millions of lower class workers killed because they had to work through covid. Genocide has already begun. The maga is coming from inside the house. Who's to say they won't go for the jews next?
I'm not saying this is the worst it can get! Just that's it's foing to get worse regardless of if its maga or desantis types in charge! A fash is a fash! Why am I so bad at explaining things!
You're not. You can't explain something to someone who doesn't want to understand it. People are clinging to "At least it's not as bad as it could be!" as a security blanket.
some how bad things can’t get worse became an accelerationist argument
Listen, Ma Kettle and the good time boys shootin' up the shittiest people possible can only be funny to me.
They can't make it worse because the people they are mad at are the ones in charge of making it worse already. The DNC would love to see a few senators get shot. You know how many donations they'd get odd that?
It's nbd because they were halted by their own incompetence. It would have been impossible for that crowd to succeed in a coup, even if they did find a politician. A impotent "coup attempt" is more of a joke than a coup, especially with absolutely no military backing.
Democrats: "I can't believe you don't think this is a big deal, I'm still shitting and crying about this. I was trembling on that day."
Leftists: "If it was a truly dangerous coup then why did they leave when the manager wasn't there? Why didn't they hold and occupy the building, or burn it? Why didn't they try to pursue and figure out where the reps went?
Democrats: "At least we take our democracy and our right to seriously. We have heavily bolstered the capitol police so our government we love so much will be protected."
Leftists: "So you go tripping over your own dicks to fund the police. Didn't the cops help them into the building?"
Democrats: "Your just a Russian bot now."
Leftists: "Ah yes, the all powerful Russians that secretly control everything and have spies and assets everywhere, but apparently not in their own country to stop a real coup."
Democrats: "Fuck you tankie"
Leftists: "Your labels mean nothing dronie. Have fun getting confused, tricked, and betrayed over and over again by capitalism."
Cops colluded. FBI ignored it.
Liberals: "our sacred institutions! Also here's a few more hundred millions of dollars for the cops."
Hilarious and depressing. Deprelarious.
