      Delusional ideas tied to cult of personality directly at odds with objective reality. What more do you want to call a spade a spade?

      No no, this is tantamount to violently storming the capital to delay the certification of the election.

        I can’t believe people thought that was actually “violently storming” the capitol

        It was a protest. Methinks you’ve never seen an actual violent crowd

            That wasn’t violence. Why they did it and the Trump thing is stupid but an actually violent attack would have been actually successful at purging the congressional ranks.

            And fuck off, .world mods, me saying what I wish had happened isn’t a call for violence

              So as long as an attack isn’t successful, it isn’t violent? Then the attempted assassination of Trump also wasn’t violent. Just a peaceful protest.

                Violence would be the Oklahoma City bombing. That actually accomplished something and was great. We need much more of that.

                Jan 6th couldn’t be successful because there wasn’t actual violence. The fact nobody was killed, not even the cops, shows it was all bullshit (except for that stupid girl who was killed for lack of shooting back)

                It’s the same disconnect from reality as the guy who shot at Trump thinking an AR was an “high powered rifle for killing” like it’s always portrayed when it’s totally wrong and appropriate for that shot. He was a moron and if he’d actually studied at all Trump would be dead. We can only hope the next attempt is successful. There’s still time for Biden too.

                    Violence does something. It eliminates enemy combatants or resources. A protest doesn’t do shit

              Ah yes, I remember when they peacefully bludgeoned that police officer.

              Sorry, my bad. Shouldn’t have given you the benefit of the doubt in assuming that you were a troll and not just braindead.

              Yeah, I guess Michael Fanone, the officer who got brain damage, burns, a heart attack and PTSD, after being beaten and given electric shocks by the crowd, was just failing to perceive the peacefulness of the situation.
