and the people that liked and encouraged the riots are pretending to be aghast at the attempted occupation of the capitol. funny how that works.


You are conflating protests with riots. People who encouraged boogaloo still do, from proud boys to antifa, and people who are against boogaloo are condemning violence.

let's see, we have grassroots protests against police brutality and racial discrimination on the one side, and trying to overturn a democratic election after the president repeatedly lied about it on the other side. i really can't tell the difference, why are dems such hypocrites?

It's not dems so to say. It's people who failed their whole life and hate to be wrong. Lot of people will go head first in their convictions even knowing they wrong just cuz they can't be arsed being wrong. Just look at the amount of people who openly voted for an old senile man who love his hairy legs or the amount of people walking around still talking bout a Political Flu/Hoax.

Lot of stupid fucks on this planet who were raised in front of their devices and know no better than their favorite anime .

protests against police brutality and racial discrimination ended up destroying minority communities and businesses. dozens of innocents dead too. only racist voyeurs like you would consider these good outcomes

e: reported, btw

You understand that burning down residential housing and looting businesses is not justified just because you're upset over police brutality

incidents involving fire are always justified for that fella. see the reichstag one for instance.

He prob don't have a job nor pay tax to rebuild that stuff. He's probably not white either. So to him, it's visiting and destroying the most powerful country.

you understand that the hyperfocus on "bUrNinG dOWn rEsiDenTiaL bUiLdInGs aND LOoTiNg bUsInEsSEs", pretending like that's core to BLM (even though we know for a FACT that right wing instigators and people who have absolutely nothing to do with BLM participated in those actions, that OF COURSE deserve condemnation) is a braindead right wing talking point to distract from the fact that one is a grassroots movement addressing real grievances and systemic flaws, while the other one is an insurrection, systematically incited by months of lies and falsehoods by the president, in order to overturn a democratic election because he didn't like the outcome, right?

it's so ridiculous to draw an equivalence between those, and you uncritically perpetuating that silly talking point doesn't exactly speak for your critical thinking abilities. the whole 'who did more material damage' question is a giant red herring, intended to distract from the fundamental differences in motivation and organisation. a bit disappointing to see you buy into that so easily tbh...

I don’t care about the difference in motivation. One is a single incident of domestic terrorism that targets the government and the other is domestic terrorism that randomly targets civilians and business owners.

I get that you don't care because this doesn't happen in your back yard but anyone who's not a jobless sjw bum or an alt right delinquent can condemn both which is what i do.

Blm and looting go hand in hand and if i was a business owner id much rather have proud boys marching by my donut shop to protest the government down the street than have blm marching by to protest the police station down the street because there is non neglible chance they will rob me and burn down my store.

The Chicago Black Lives Matter organizer who justified looting as “reparation” has doubled down — insisting this week that even calling someone a criminal is “based on racism.”

Ariel Atkins told WBEZ that her group “100 percent” supports the violent looters who trashed chunks of the Windy City on Monday, again repeating her claim that it is “reparations.”

“The whole idea of criminality is based on racism anyway,” she told the NPR station.

“Because criminality is punishing people for things that they have needed to do to survive or just the way that society has affected them with white supremacist BS,” she said.
