When we become a right wing dictatorship, it will be celebrated. If we ever come back from that, it will be remembered like when Hitler launched his first attempt at a coup, before he was put in jail.

Explain the CHOP in Seattle. AKA the "Capitol Hill Occupied Protest" where BLM protesters took over multiple city blocks of Seattle's Capitol district for almost a month. June 8th 2020-Jul 1st 2020 forcing all law enforcement and government services out. During which there were 5 shootings including at least 2 deaths, multiple rapes, assaults, robberies and thefts. The damage was in the millions of dollars. But again we don't talk about stuff like that because it doesn't fit the preferred narrative.

Fact check: False.

-Four Trump supporters died - the lunatic shot for trying to enter congressional chambers, two more to heart attacks where paramedics could not quickly reach them, and one more to a drug overdose.
-The policeman who shot the lunatic wasn't "rogue" - he was acting entirely within the scope of his duties and his actions were investigated and found to be lawful.
-Five police officers that were at the riots died shortly thereafter - one of a stroke (likely induced or aggravated as a result of the stress of the day), and four suicides.
-Over 1000 documented assaults were committed against police officers that day, ranging from being beaten with metal poles to being sprayed with chemicals.
-It was also - and I feel you're giving short-shrift to this, so I do believe it needs to be highlighted - a violent insurrection against the duly-elected government of the United States. A gallows was erected. Pipe bombs were placed to try and blow up political offices. So, you know, there's that.

The riots (labelling them "BLM riots" is a bit disingenuous, given that BLM was mostly involved in peaceful protests, not riots) weren't trying to deny the results of an election and overthrow the government.

Seems pretty straightforward to me.

Pretty shitty troll topic, even for you. Comparing pretty much anything to 9/11 is like comparing things to the Holocaust -- that's an impossibly high bar. And it's pretty deranged to think the two have anything in common.

The Jan 6 Riots were tame compared to other riots in the preceding years which saw large portions of cities burned to the ground, including the destruction of minority-owned businesses.

The President of the United States of America explicitly incited an angry crowd to march on the Capitol building to disrupt or even overturn the process of validating the next democratically elected government. This was done under the lie that the election results had been falsified. This was a deliberate attempt to weaken public faith in the democratic process, with the ultimate desired goal of instilling Trump as some form of dictator.

That was quite possibly the lowest point in the history of US democracy. A disturbing number of people still either openly celebrate or suspiciously downplay that event. There is no good moral justification in defending it at all.

What I think happened is u got a bunch of overzealous folks being waved in by police and a handful of extremist instigators.

I really shouldn't, you're right. Trump literally said "Were going to walk down to the Capitol, and were going to cheer on our brave senators, and congressmen and women. Were probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them because youll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength, and you have to be strong. to a crowd right before the attack and Zeus thinks Trump didn't incite the attack at all.

He excuses Trump's lies ("Trump almost certainly believed it") for being either ignorance or stupidity (as if that's a huge improvement).

He gaslights the position that this was an attempt to disrupt democracy despite the confirmed fact that the rioters were looking to destroy the electoral ballots to prevent the process from continuing.

There honestly is no reasoning with someone who saw four years of chaotic leadership from Trump and still somehow supports him. Trump was hands down the worst president the US has seen in the past century, and is guilty of inciting insurrection.

Riots are awful and people who riot should see some form of discipline, but riots are small potatoes to insurrection

And no bones about it, they were seeking to undermine and delegitimise the election. That's insurrection, regardless of what those MAGA Let's Go Brandon dummies think of it

ignoring the obvious bait

trying to overthrow the government of an entire nation and install a dictator is worse than any and all of the blm protests that turned to riots, this is taught even in far-right area schools

the former is actual terrorism, my guy. they're both bad, for sure, but one is significantly worse than the other

...who were formed from the far-right "Freikorps" paramilitary groups that fought in WW1 and who pushed hard for right-wing policies in Germany. Notably, the Nazis biggest enemies were leftists - specifically socialists and communists, with members of both groups sent to the death camps as political prisoners if they weren't just killed outright.

Hitler was a darling of the American right-wing and the admiration was mutual (Hitler was a big fan of Henry Ford's right-wing views and antisemitism and Ford reciprocated by writing an article for Nazi publication) - prior to the war, elements of the American right viewed Hitler as one of the most effective right-wing, anti-communist leaders in all of Europe and his various writings denouncing socialism and leftism had numerous supporters on the other side of the Atlantic.

Please put this tired "Nazis were actually left wing, guys!!" bullshit to bed. It does nothing but expose your own historical ignorance.

Needlessly? No, when an insurrectionist who is trespassing on government property is violently smashing through a window to enter a chamber that the police have deliberately barricaded because civilians are inside that they are charged with protecting (civilians, mind, that the insurrectionists were chanting threats towards, saying they should be hanged on the gallows they'd brought for the occasion or just straight-up shot), that is 100% a justification for lethal force. If this moron didn't want to get shot, she should have made several better life choices leading up to that day.

Frankly, trying to smash through a police barricade in a secured building is one of the dumbest things I can think of doing if you're not trying to commit suicide-by-cop. I'm honestly kind of amazed more people weren't shot and killed under similar circumstances. Dunno whether to chalk that up to good restraint on the part of the capitol police or a result of the skin colour of the insurrectionists.

This might be true if it was a singular event (like, say, the 1/6 Insurrection). But BLM was a protest movement, and over 93% of those protests were peaceful and absent any rioting or violence. Moreover, at places where violence did break out, BLM protesters were more likely to be victims of it than perpetrators, as violence often started as a police action to try to shut down or disperse the protesters (protesters or bystanders were injured in 1.6% of the protests; police were injured in 1.0% of the protests; 96.3% of protests involved no property damage, and in 97.7% of protests there were no reported injuries among protesters, bystanders, or police).

Remember "Umbrella Man", the guy in the Minneapolis who touched off looting and riots by smashing up an AutoZone? He was later identified as a member of the Aryan Cowboys, a white supremacist group who, obviously, aren't exactly ardent BLM supporters. There was that cop who was shot and killed in Portland, though... oh, except he was murdered by a member of the Boogaloo Boys, another far-right group that were hoping to touch off a race war.

Zeus posted...
And he even told them to go home after they broke in.
Yeah... a few hours later after watching it on TV, with a parade of aides and right-wing personalities begging him to do something. They even had to film multiple takes of his request to disperse, because the first few had him veering off-script into self-pitying narcissistic rage.

Zeus posted...
Trump almost certainly believed it, as did others.
Then you're conceding that Trump's a fucking idiot, along with those unnamed "others". All 50 states certified their election results as being free of fraud. He lost every single court challenge he made to the election results, save for one procedural victory that didn't actually prove any fraud. His own attorney general stated that the election was not fraudulent. The only fraud cases that have come up in the voluminous investigations that have taken place since have been a handful of cases of people voting multiple times or with other people's votes... nearly all of which were Trump voters. The widely touted recount that took place in Arizona by a Trump-favouring firm with no experience in election oversight wound up changing the results... in favour of the Democrats.

And seriously, if there was such massive fraud why didn't we see more of a tilt towards the Democrats? The Republicans overperformed in that election, compared to what the polls said they were going to do. The Democrats were supposed to expand their house lead and were favourites to have at least a 2-3 seat majority in the senate (with 4-6 being possible if everything went their way); states like Florida and Ohio were supposed to be nailbiters for the presidential race; the Democrats were expected to flip a large number of Governor's mansions into their column; yet all of those races swung for Republicans.

Did the people promulgating this fraud just forget to fill in the Democrat candidates for the downballot races or something? Because the Republicans won (relatively) the House and Senate contests, as well as the state-level contests, compared to what was expected, and yet you don't hear a whisper of objection from them about those races - just Cheeto Benito bitching about how he got thumped by Joe Biden.

That's the conspiracy theorist you're suggesting Trump is dumb enough to legitimately be suckered by. I guess you don't think very highly of his intelligence (which might be the first known instance of you being right about something involving him).

Name a "BLM riot" where more than nine people died.

Some in the mob were literally chanting they wanted to kill Mike Pence, I don't think that means they were there just to force the government to reconsider the election results. The only reason they didn't get a hold of a single politician is because they got out of their before anyone could even get to see one of the politicians.

I really shouldn't, you're right. Trump literally said "Were going to walk down to the Capitol, and were going to cheer on our brave senators, and congressmen and women. Were probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them because youll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength, and you have to be strong. to a crowd right before the attack and Zeus thinks Trump didn't incite the attack at all.


Because Trump didn't say word for word to "storm the capitol building". That's why no charges were brought against him.

That's a significant distinction, trying to liken an American revolt to international agents attacking on domestic soil is stupid af.

Also a quick reality check for all, the people involved with this event have been getting arrested and charged. Nothing's being downplayed or forgiven, justice is being done.

I don't think Monopman was doing that. I think they were just making up a hypothetical to highlight how out-of-touch Zeus is

It needs to be remembered and examined as a bunch of psychotic idiots being controlled, but comparing it to 9/11 is mental.

It does though. You said no charges were brought. But no charges have been brought YET. It's not concluded. You can't just speak in definite that he hasn't been charged because there are multiple concurrent investigations being done rn.

They haven't arrested the politicians who helped instigate it yet.

Do you mention that there were more than 10,000 arrests as resulting from the violence that sprang from BLM protests? Or do you only stand up for people who violently assaulted police officers before breaking into one of the most historic buildings in the US during a Federal election proceeding with the intention of killing politicians?
