This is in the same vein as "some people did some things", variations on the same theme of talking around the issue when people of you tribe are recognized as having been involved. "At an event something happened" in this case. They usually try fool you into believing that one your people did it, being unhappy with the target etc.
Remember “Easter worshippers”? The left made up an entire new phrase just to avoid saying Christians.
Every leftist you know is not only perfectly fine with what happened, they would have eagerly celebrated it if every Republican on the field and their entire extended family had been killed that day.
Yeah, quite unlikely. Every leftist I know is appalled by far less crazy stuff that they do. Unfortunately, they do believe the lying media.
Leftists I know run the gamut from “that’s bad, but they brought it on themselves” to “awesome, I hope this happens more often”. Virtually no leftists are “appalled” by the behavior of leftists. If they were, they wouldn’t be leftists.
My weakness is calling neoliberals 'far-left'.
Fabian Socialists are Far Left.
