Gini Thomas, Justice Thomas's wife, also had to purge her Facebook because she was deeply involved in pushing last week's events

Lol But also, very real possibility. The whole pustch Wednesday was in large part a "stabbed in the back" narrative aimed at Pence and the other Republicans who didn't go along with the fascist plot.

No, I want to discuss the violent fascist coup that actually was attempted, the causes of it, and how it isn't going away, and how it isn't comparable to protest movements. You're simply lying now because you dug yourself a hole a mile deep by treating the fascist assault on Congress as simply disagreeing on how best to run the country. I don't want to pretend that it was anything but what it was or that it'll simply go away in a couple of weeks. If we don't understand the ideology that continues to motivate these people, you cannot stop future events. and when you start saying communists were probably in the fascist Trump mob, you're repeating the propaganda the fascists are now putting out. Your string of posts today amount of defending fascism as a legitimate ideology and then spraying squid ink over everything else. It's disgusting.

I'm saying communists haven't attempted a violent overthrow of the federal government so maybe shut the fuck up about your dumb whataboutisms comparing civil rights marches to fascist insurrections.

It's pretty fucked up how far you're willing to go to treat fascism as just another normal political ideology to be debated and discussed.

Bipartisan after the people who supported the coup are purged, sure.

You can have many criticisms of the US government and it's structures without giving a single inch to the "concerns" of fascists, or treating them as if they're just polite political disagreements.

I believe we shouldn't treat anything fascists say as if it's being said in good faith, and we should expel them from Congress and imprison them where appropriate. Anything else is irrelevant to the discussion of their attempted coup.

The areas of concern are the fascists and the lies they tell about our system.

We already know the system didn't work because there was a counter coup!! We're told that there are assurances the President doesn't currently control the nuclear arsenal! This is the system breaking down.

Cruz is a fascist who's fired up about fascism

Democracies can fall to coups and you're extremely naive if you think the United States are somehow immune to that.

I see one guy repeatedly trying to draw an equivalency between civil rights and anti war protesters and violent fascists attempting to overthrow the government, as if it's all just some sort of political disagreement we can reason out.

What the heck are these runs??

Video shot by a congressman during the siege. Sounds like they were instructed by security to take their name tags off so they couldn't be easily identified.

That's not a catch, boo

Also Amazon prime if you have that

Capital is very much not having this shit, yeah. Well the accused ringleader was going to be abducted and returned to Turkey by the then-national security adviser and his son, before that plot was discovered and Flynn was fired! Trump recently pardoned Flynn and has been meeting with him lately, for whatever that's worth. But generally if you do a failed coup they put a bullet in your head, something like that. Functional democracies sure don't just pretend nothing really happened and keep letting you have a seat in government. Not if they want to remain democracies, anyway.

Oh come on Wims

Hope isn't an action plan.

Can you at least acknowledge that it's pretty fucking gross to compare anti war protests to fascist insurrections bent on murder?

If they crack down on fascists, there's a chance! Lots of other issues of course, namely a pandemic and economic downturn. If they pretend there isn'ta serious threat, then no.
