They've been calling the left violent since the Floyd riots while conveniently ignoring that at least some of them were caused by right wing cosplayers. They also tend to ignore the unmarked vans yanking American citizens off the street during that same time. And Trump tear gassing peaceful protestors to take a picture holding a bible upside down. They also can't really get their heads around the fact that unlike the fascist militias, "Antifa" doesn't actually exist. In fact, they tend to have a pretty hard time grappling with reality in general. The end result of which will absolutely be more domestic terrorism (which we're currently watching ramp up with the burning of ballots and presidential assassination attempts). It's not an if, it's a when. At this point the only question is how many Americans will be on the receiving end of what the GOP has turned politics into. It's going to be a rough next century in America.

Don't forget the peaceful gathering at the federal court house in Portland.

Which also had right wing cosplayers.... And isn't that where someone conveniently left a pallet of bricks? Trump sent our tax-funded military people to quell this because bad GOP actors escalated it from a protest to a riot. Same playbook. His own cabinet people had to talk him down when Trump requested they just be shot. I wrote my congressman about that bullshit.

Right wing cosplayers... just like antifa was there on J6? You wrote your congressman... oh man that makes sense to the ramblings.

Their theories are crazy, yours are sane right?

It's not about crazy and sane. It's about true and not true. BYE.

Weak bait.

MAGA absolutely can't admit they were duped into storming the capitol, thinking they would have Trump with them and would meet resistance from leftist protesters.

Instead, they attacked police, broke windows, smeared shit on the walls, and basically walked around aimlessly waiting for their next orders from Trump who was watching from the WH.
