CTH obviously didn’t do their research before the most recent Patreon ep. They’re legit upset that an “unarmed woman” was shot in the Capitol building.

She was shot while trying to climb through a window into the area where they were keeping the politicians. I get that calling this idiocy a coup is stupid, I get that it’s going to be used to crack down on leftist groups with increased surveillance. I get that the state is a much more significant threat than these dipshits, and I’m not happy that the state killed someone. But chapo had obviously not seen the video when they made this ep cause nobody in their right minds would think the state would just let someone waltz into a secured area housing some of the highest-ranking politicians in the country, armed or otherwise. I don’t see what else they would’ve expected to come out of that situation and trying to call police brutality or unjust state violence here seems misguided to me and ultimately futile.

Kinda feels like they’re just trying to distance themselves from the MSM narrative and are over-correcting a little bit

Edit to add that the guest was obviously downplaying the situation - saying that the woman was simply “standing near” a window and just happened to get shot. And he’s supposed to be the one who knows what’s going on... can’t tell if just uninformed or dishonest narrative peddling.

    Who gives a shit! When did murdering police become "were they approaching them menacingly? Oh well that's aok, good on the pigs." Fucking hell, you should be upset that the cops killed someone even if that someone is better off dead! You don't have to mourn the person to think acab! But this is stupid shit.

      ACAB and I literally said I’m not happy about it but if you expect anything else to happen when someone tries to storm an area with the Vice President, VP elect, and most of congress then you’re an idiot. Listen to the episode if you haven’t already - they spend several minutes lamenting this woman when this was clearly the only outcome of that situation. They’re just being contrarian and obviously didn’t bother to look into the situation before spouting off about it. Every online person who could stomach the video knew exactly what happened that same night, but somehow all of the chapos plus their supposedly informed guest couldn’t figure it out before going on air
