    the ones breaking the windows and setting fires were generally "booga.loo boys" and other assorted neo nazi filth. there are also capitalist interests in any big city that like to clear inconvenient tenants from valuable real estate for profitable urban redevelopment.

    That's just your fantasy.

    I see the media you have been reading has created a false impression.

    The worst those boogaloo boys have done is bait unhinged anarchist progressives, who get easily offended and possess little self control, into attacking them so they can have an excuse to beat them up.

    I think you're just getting into hysterics.

    There were signs that there may have been widescale election fraud, but Trump made it clear he would have to concede the election if Biden got the votes in the Electoral College (those votes in turn are based on the elections held in each state).

    Personally, I think the protesters and the mob probably did not understand the Constitution that well. They should have been protesting in front of the state legislature buildings in the states that had the contested elections. Under the Constitution, there's not much Congress could have done. They have to accept the results of the Electoral College.

    And the months of hundreds of riots, looting, arson, vandalism, insurrection leading up to that in 2020? Until the left takes responsibility for all that, they will get nothing but a mocking cold shoulder from us regarding 1-6-21. The double standard must end for dialogue to begin. Still no grounds to justify baseless hate from anyone

    I am certainly NOT, you asked; "You don't think they would have, had the situation been the other way around?", there is nothing hysterical about pointing out that, until tRump, Americans attacking OUR own Capitol is unprecedented, until tRump an American President NOT peacefully transfering power was unprecedented. NO, i do NOT think "they would have". Calling my reaction hysterical is just RW boiler plate to minimize the gravity of what happened that day.

    Oh, that's not true. Look up the "Bonus Army".

    Plus Democrats sure seem to be going out of their way to make sure no angry mob has a chance of coming anywhere near the Supreme Court building.

    You can see a picture here: https://www.washingtonian.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/supreme-court-fence-5.jpg

    Protesters won't be allowed anywhere near the building. They know what could happen.
    A mob of angry Progressive Pro-Choicers storming the building would be politically very inconvenient right now, with them still pushing the narrative about the Pro-Trump attack on the capitol.

    Trump actually did peacefully transfer power to the current illegitimate regime. He left of his own accord and so did his administration.

    I thought whataboutism is looked down on from your side of the isle. In this case it really obfuscates the point he was making.

    Only in America can you find so many angry conservatives claiming to love their Country while hating half the people that live in it. LOL

    The Bonus Army, didn't cross barriers to break into the capitol to change how the United States is governed; they didn't enter illegally and wipe their **** on OUR Capitol's walls. Republicans put up barriers around the Capitol that were ignored. After 16/2021 I think prudence dictates a better effort.

    Most of the whataboutism in this thread is coming from your side.

    NOT before he instigated an attempted seditious conspiracy to overturn the election which resulted in the Capitol attack.

    Half the time that slogan is used it is mostly to make fun of Biden's apparent mental slowness and cluelessness.

    No, I have pointed out the hypocrisy of the OP, directly sans ANY what-about.

    You seem a little unhinged and very worked up.

    Too much CNN?

    That slogan is used to point out who the Trumpists are. Thank God their messiah has brought them out of their caves.

    President Biden is consistently sharp. He's human an not without error, the right has found a soft spot and they are making hay from straw.

    I think the media is intentionally fanning the flames.

    Most voters are just stupid and go along with it.
    "useful idiots"

    Give me control of the mainstream media for one year and I could have half the Democrat voters thinking Hitler was the greatest thing since sliced bread.

    Well there you go again, trying to find fault with my pointing out the incredulity of Americans attacking the most beautiful public building in the world for the purpose of subverting our Government.

    I don't watch CNN.

    Funny that the Left did not think it was such a beautiful country before...

    (You know that quote from Michelle Obama, "This is the first time I am proud for my country")

    Except "the left" wasn't responsible "for all of that", responsibility was equal across the political spectrum. Trying to paint it as a "double standard" is more whataboutism to obfuscate 1/62021
    That's not a complete sentence; if you are saying that nothing justifies "baseless hate", most people on "the left" would agree.

    That quote is out of context, as I'm sure you are aware. But, "funny", how you apply that to the WHOLE of the left. You've just proven how hypocritical this thread is.
