what the f*** is Q'anon?

of COURSE they don't care about identity politics. they are hypocrits. but they get hypnotized by it like a drugy....so soon all common sense goes out the window. look at all these idiots complaining about jk rowling and the harry potter game. same thing. deep down they probably don't care..and will even buy the game to get their potter fix. but they are so far down the rabbit hole, they can't help but act that way.

democrats are the same.

They’re like a fringe minority of the Right who say extreme things, but unlike their leftist counterparts the woke mob, they aren’t allowed a platform. They’re also the Democrats’ favorite scapegoats.

Wait...so are we doing the "No true Scottsman" or not? Why is it appropriate to say that looters were not protesters then in the next breath say that Jan6th protester were all there to overthrow the government? "No true protester would loot"...BS. Complete BS. The protesters were all about stealing and destroying everything not theirs. It is much more reasonable to assume you are wrong about the "majority" of the people during Jan6th were there to overthrow the government. It seems like, with the amount of guns that we have in the country the people in possession of the guns would have brought them if they planned to overthrow the government.

Hell..."protesters" actually created a no-go Autonomous Zone where they laid siege to a federal courthouse and destroyed a police department while covering up rapes and murders and shaking down local businesses. Why should people going into the capital building for an hour or so be treated any different then everyone in CHAZ?

Exactly what I basically laid out in previous posts. That guy loves to cherry pick from others posts to try to limp his way to make piss-poor points and ignores what someone is actually saying. He has reading comprehension problems!

Sorry if I stepped on your toes! I was sort of skimming an I noticed G-dawg uttering the name of Saint Kyle Rittenhouse (Victim of 'Peaceful Protestor' violence and Patron Saint of Self Defense) so thought I would read it. I noticed the quality of the arguments and thought I would comment.

to steal and reuse his terms "C'mon this is antifa level delusion."

No you’re not stepping on my toes at all! I’m in total agreement with you. It wasn’t your reading comprehension I was referring to. It was Galactus

It's a conspiracy theory very popular among the MAGAs. Basically it goes that the majority of the democrat party including the Obamas, the Clintons, Nancy Pelosi etc as well as every liberal Hollywood celebrity including Tom Hanks, John Legend and Chrissy Tiegen were all part of a global satanic pedophile ring which sacrificed children in weird rituals to drink their blood.

Their belief was the reason Trump's then tenure as president was so chaotic wasn't because he had no idea what he was doing but because he fighting a one-man war against these evil satan worshiping pedophiles. A guy called Q who claimed to be someone high up in the Trump regime started posting on 4chan (yes really) confirming this. He would routinely post gibberish akin to horoscopes that tons of people took as predictions. Mostly about the day when Trump would declare martial law and have arrests of the entirety of the democrat party and almost all Hollywood celebrities.. The date came and then...nothing happened so they kept revising it.

Sadly this grew way beyond a fringe movement and at one point most registered Republicans believed in at least some of this insanity. Even after Trump lost because Q was promising them Trump had a plan they thought he would seize power via the military or something. That was one of the big reasons for January 6th. Most of the insurrectionists were believers of this nonsense. Not only did they have Trump telling them to "fight like dogs" which they took as him telling them to do it and they had these Q drops telling them that he definitely wanted them to storm the capital. They felt safe to do it because they believed that once Trump seized control they'd all be pardoned.

So the democrat party don't believe in things but pursue them anyway. To point (as you believe) they are willing to disgrace one of their more distinguished politicians and blow up their own party. Why would they do this? What do they hope to achieve?

It was you drew the comparison between the January 6th insurrectionists and the various BLM protests. You made the distinction between the insurrectionists who actually entered the Capital building vs the ones who were left outside. By that logic I we should also draw a distinction between a BLMer that was just protesting and the few that turned to looting.

It's a pretty poor comparison to make anyway. I'm sure when protests on issues like marching against the police killing black people are being organised there is probably a sad realisation it could get out of hand and become violent but no one organising it plans for it to happen. The events of January 6th were 100% planned even by people in Trump regime. The plan was to break into the Capital building and force Mike Pence to certify Trump instead of Biden. That's the huge distinction that we should draw between Jan 6th and the various BLM protests.

Clout and money, dear boy.

Do you think all priests believe in Christian dogma or all Scientologists believe in their nonsense? Of course not, but if there is profit to be found it might be worthy to support the "cause", even if individual understands that they are supporting non-sensical ********.

Haven't you seen Hollywood movies lately? Some of them explicitly marketed as being "progressive", which is mostly not the case, even though its known that: those movies are nothing special, it just triggers pointless wars in Internet and it actually can tank a movie. From the point of view of producer, its basically worthless and damaging. But they do it anyway. Ask yourself "why"?

Think beyond your "progressivism for dummies" rulebook for once. Humans are not purely good and evil and far more complex than your guidebook tells you.

Creating autonomous zones is also part of the protests? Supporting riots and claiming they are "mostly peaceful", when some of them were explicitly not is not comparable to so called "insurrection", when bunch of idiots went into the Capitol, made selfies and were kicked out?

If anything, so called "Insurrection" made much less damage, than "peaceful protests" and somehow killed less Blacks in the process (if you believe that all participants were Racists or Nazis or whatever boogieman your ideology pushes on top today).

And by the way, supporting and fueling riots, with explicit purpose of ousting current President, is basically a treason in itself. It is one step away from going a full scale Civil War, so I'd say BLM was worse that January 6th. On all accounts.

So, basically the tin foil hat people that folks USED too ignore. But, now we give them a fancy name and used them for political agenda. Got it.

trump never said fight like dogs.
He knew something was fishy...somehow biden gained alot of votes fast over a short period of time. and thanks too mail in voiting, no one really knew what was going on.

>>
— “We fight like hell and if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore.”

— “We want to go back, and we want to get this right because we’re going to have somebody in there that should not be in there and our country will be destroyed, and we’re not going to stand for that.”

— “Nobody knows what the hell is going on. There’s never been anything like this. We will not let them silence your voices. We’re not going to let it happen. Not going to let it happen.” The crowd repeatedly chanted “Fight for Trump!” “Thank you,” Trump said.

>>

The Dems do it, because they want too drum up support over the weak, and the stupid....and those that feel like they've been ostricized. but it's never enough, and they dig in deeper.....and whether they believe it or not, they are trapped...because if they back peddle, they will loose whatever small amount of votes they gained going crazy. very simple logic.

once a gain, trump was right. look how long it took biden too destroy the nation. supply problems... leaving troops in afghanistan.... leaving an american soldier behind in russia while rescuing a basketball player that hates america... trading a very dangerous prisoner for her too boot. the list goes on.

Should have it's own thread instead of being buried in a Trump thread.

So now that Antifa has caused quite a stir in Atlanta over the weekend and that the daughter of a House Democrat has been arrested for punching a cop, will the mainstream media finally admit that Antifa is real and not just “an idea”?







Nothing to see here folks.

This thread has become a catch-all for the leftist nonsense that we associate now with the last several years. All of that stuff should have it's own thread, or bare minimum a "Leftist Insanity" thread.

It seems that he expects to be arrested next week.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-65000325

Donald Trump says he expects to be arrested on Tuesday and has urged his supporters to launch mass protests.

However his lawyer said there had been no communication from law enforcement and the former president's post was based on media reports.

Prosecutors have been looking at a possible indictment of Mr Trump. Reports say it could come next week.

If he is indicted, it would be the first criminal case ever brought against a former US president.

This case focuses on alleged hush money paid on Mr Trump's behalf by his lawyer to former porn star Stormy Daniels prior to the 2016 presidential election.

It is one of several cases in which the 76-year-old is currently being investigated, although he has not yet been charged in any and denies wrongdoing in each.

Even if he is arrested, it'll never last and it'll never stick. They can't even get him for jaywalking, and damn, have they tried... Leftards must be really desperate if this is how they plan to steal another election from Trump.

NY DA Letitia James has dropped the case against Trump

https://www.mediaite.com/news/ny-att...-federal-case/

I’m sure there will be more witch hunts. They’ll probably keep this going all the way leading up to the election.

No, that isn’t what it says. All other pending or current cases against Trump are being adjourned until the one in Miami about the documents is resolved.
