Parler has been removed from the Google and Apple app stores.

Keep going with this purge of far right social media. And don't stop there, far-right media like Fox, Newsmax, and Rush Limbaugh need to be held accountable for their role in all of this.

The three people who died of medical emergencies...

Overweight guy with heart problems that tasered himself in the balls.
Woman with a Dont tread on me flag who got trampled
Guy who attempted to climb a wall and fell off when there were stairs right next to him.

These are the superior people who felt they were right with no evidence.

Those deaths are the definition of irony

If only the government gave them the health care they voted against :V

I feel like the main reason the coup failed is because both Trump and the people who do his bidding are a bunch of fucking idiots.

Someone competent could have pulled it off.

As much as these people decry BLM as a bunch of thugs with no end goal, their protests tend to have far clearer demands.

This was just property damage and looting. It was like a riot held by animals.

Nah, laughter is entirely appropriate here.
They're traitors to their own country, fuck 'em

If I am being as fair and honest here as possible, without coming off as a bitch, those instances do seem like something out of Dante's Inferno.

It's like three examples of laser guided karma, striking three different people simultaneously. It's very hard not to laugh at that.

oh lord I somehow missed this one until now

2021 is unironically off to a great start.

People died, sure, but statistically you keep that many old people in one place and you're bound to have at least 5 die for no reason, and some did.

We have evidence of the taser event, but can I have links to the other 2? Because that's the best thing I've read all week.

I seen the vid of the guy falling. It had mario 2 sound effects on it lmao

Other sites said she was trampled to death but left out the flag part that makes it ironic.

Please link it! That's the one incident I can't find ANYTHING to corroborate. It's the least hilarious of the 3, but it's still interesting just as a package deal w/ the other 2, that literally all 3 met such hilarious and karmic ends.

Argh I just saw this like an hour ago. Let me go look for it.

So I've seen videos that show how much worse this terror attack was than I realized. Most of the footage shown wed was almost comical guys doing silly things and performances. Stories about people being confused once they got in with how easy it was.

Today I've seen the videos of the people who weren't confused. The people who planned it, who know where they were going. The people who were there to kill Pence and the legislators. They said as much. This was so much worse than I realized.

Yep. I would doubt if some of them, including the guy with all those zip-ties, were off-duty cops.

Now some of them are being arrested. Which is nice, but the ringleaders and ones obvious meant to do harm need to be dealt with above all. Some can be cited with trespass on government property, but the violent or otherwise malicious ones like this will require more charges and action.

Thank you. Was this Benjamin Phillips , or just some random loser falling? The fall didn't even look that bad. Love that the video had to vastly speed up the stamina depletion to match w/ when he just couldn't hold on anymore.

Darwin Award winners

The other one too. Trampling is a very real possibility at Black Friday; at a violent riot it's downright likely.

The three of them should get a special page in the Darwin Awards book.

winning the Darwin Award means doing something extremely stupid to yourself to get yourself removed from the gene pool (or at least no longer able to contribute to it), getting trampled by others really doesnt fit the criteria.

Leaving kids behind also does not fit the criteria, such as the case of another of them.

Not "to yourself" specifically; just doing something extremely stupid, dangerous, and unnecessary. Hence my second sentence.

I'll give our government some props. They played this very well. Not hard to outsmart a bunch of dumbfuck qanon people though. They clearly let them in (multiple videos show them being welcomed in by the cops) so they could make an example of the maga crowd. Now they will use this event as a way to label any dissidents of the government as terrorists.

Also, quite conveniently, big tech has the perfect excuse to purge its competition right as its starting to grow. Not sure it will work for them unless the government steps in and actively works to legislate these platforms out of existence though by eliminating section 230.

Or they may allow these platforms to exist as a way of herding in the dissidents and slamming the gate shut behind them. Either way, trump has for sure fleeced his flock and these people are still saying he has a plan lmao. Poor dumb bastards

Kind of funny how much of a walking contradiction these people are. They hated everything trump has been pushing like the vaccine and the lockdowns but continue to blindly support him anyway. Its kind of amazing

I believe this was an inside job because you just can't go anywhere you want at the Capitol. The other thing I noticed was how some of the police officers put no resistance to stop people from breaking windows etc and we all know had this been a group of Black people the outcome would have been far bloodier.

Trump should be brought up on charges because he instigated the whole thing because he thinks he won the election and he didn't and all the people he thought would help him cheat to win turned their back on him.

---

Yeah trump literally incited a coup and is the textbook definition of a traitor. Despite his backpedaling over the last couple days Ted Cruz is guilty of the same crime. We do not abide traitors or their supporters in this country.

Oh great, just what I wanted to know Hercules supported a neo-nazi led insurrection.
