    Literally like, "Hey y'all wanna burn down the Reichstag? We'll look the other way just do it quick." Little did they know that these rubes had no real intention of doing anything other than shidding and farting inside the capitol building.

    The day is still going on, I am waiting to see what happens after nightfall. These guys are crazed fanatics, and surely some must still be en route since they have heard of the chaos. The cops were just chilling with them, and I doubt the National Guard will open fire on them.

      It'll be their bedtime soon, they'll probably just head back to their rooms. I refuse to believe these chuds have anywhere near the stamina or organization to continue any action like this into the night. Anyone who has been anywhere near an action like this knows they take a ton of work to sustain.

        That's been the saving grace is that they have none (0) organizational skills. The only way this is working is because the cops are letting them get away with it. They haven't had to face any actual pushback from the state. They momentarily rallied behind taking the Capitol building and then lost it because they had no plan afterwards. They had full access to unlocked computers, email accounts, and god knows what else. They should systematically collecting as much data as they can from inside the offices. Rummaging the drawers for prescription bottles, and other stuff they don't want getting out. What a wasted opportunity.

        They got shit on by cops last night because they weren't organized. They're fight each other in the streets. One guy had a heart attack from a flashbang. They haven't decided to hate the cops or like the cops. There's no plan. Even the bigshot right wing online guys aren't calling any shots. Not Don Jr, not Amon Bundy, not the Proud Boys guy, nothing. Just break some shit, run inside, take selfies to show off on 4chan, then get detained by cops. There is no organization here yet.

      I read somewhere that the DoD didn’t want to send in the national guard because they would be under Trumps command. Fucking lol.

        Real collapse hours. The army has split loyalties, the police is firmly pro-Trump, so is the national guard. There are only the letter agencies left to defend the democrats.

            For the professional ghouls at the CIA, FBI, etc, preservation of capital and of the state comes before the preservation of any one man.

            I don't see in the future thankfully, so I can't tell what's going to happen. I just read polls about voting intentions for different classes and jobs, and most of the letter agencies belong to the PMC, which votes for Biden. Again, the situation is very, very volatile, and anything can happen at this point.

    Hot take:

    They let this happen in order to alienate Republicans from Trump supporters so Mitch McConnell can firmly take back control inside the GOP.

      I mean I doubt it was that coordinated of an action. I think it's much more likely that they just didn't want to get yelled in the face anymore (by people they may agree with, lmao)

        Yeah, you’re right. I actually didn’t mean the pigs on the scene. More like why there were so far from enough of them there to possibly be able to stop it

    There are already people behind the barricade? And he says "again" in the video if you turn the sound on.

    This was a test run for a coup, I think. It wasn't successful but feels like a warning and what was a test run.

    What we seen from police was absolutely not surprising whatsoever. We already knew they backed Trump and would allow something like this. Anyone who has been to protests and had to deal with counterprotesters of far right lunatics, has first hand experience how the cops are quick to put down BLM protesters and let fascists run wild.
