Like it or not today's actions at the capitol building will be condemned by the media, establishment minded republicans, and the religious right. It doesn't matter that what happened is minor compared to months of rioting, looting, and murder by the left and BLM. It doesn't matter that election fraud claims were dismissed without hearings and audit requests were denied.
When Trump lost in November I realized immediately that it would be nearly impossible for the political right to gain Casus Belli, and the actions today, much like Charlottesville are going to be used to oppress right wing thought for years to come. It is likely that the establishment republicans are going to vote for gun control measures to put the right wing populists in their place, when normally they would not.
The media, local and state governments, big tech, and other corporations all gave them(selves) Casus belli for their "mostly peaceful" actions throughout 2020. The vast majority of people will believe those narratives, and now they have another one to war on right wing populists with. I don't see any positive path from here. To be fair, I didn't see any positive path before today either, but I hoped at least some uniparty republicans would be afraid to enact a far left agenda, not any more.
Neat, do nothing and get fucked. Or go make a show and get fucked with no lube. Pls just let it hurt a little less
Fuck optics and fuck this loser mentality
I saw a bunch of people say this is our House with little violence, other than from the state. Props to dude who farted in Pelosi's chair.
Or accept the lesson the left taught us in 2020, which was that violence is the only option we have now. There is no more reason for debate or discussion, when violence that is beneficial to your opponent will be ignored, denied, and excused. They are only crying out because this violence doesn't benefit them this time.
When the lives of people have been ruined by months of lockdowns and riots, we were told it was just. Yet, we get one day of rioting aimed at the politicians we all know to be corrupt, and this is called treason. I would gladly call myself a traitor for the opportunity to trade the life of a disgusting oligarch to save the life of a fellow citizen. Let them call us all traitors, for the opinions of the establishment's whores are worth less than nothing.
