Just Like That, Violence is OK Again
Quote:The Inauguration Day violence that was expected from the right by the left, turned out to be our old friends at Antifa, marching through cities in the Pacific Northwest (and other cities), breaking windows, and destroying other private property. There were people assaulted. The violence we have come to know as the hallmark of the left was on display again, just this time… no one on the left has been called out as inciting the violence.
Though to the left, that isn’t the standard. When the Capitol Riots took place, the left and media swarmed Republican lawmakers, demanding apologies and for them to denounce the violence… and Trump. The media circled like sharks, attempting to paint conservatives as co-conspirators in some vast conspiratorial action to overthrow the American Government, despite their vehement rejections of violent rhetoric. Meanwhile, for the last four years, we have endured liberal conspiracy after liberal conspiracy to overthrow the duly elected President of the United States. Their rhetoric has been responsible for protests and violence across the country yet, somehow they get a pass.
While obviously the rioting in the PNW was covered by the media the tone was different. Gone were the suggestions of intentions or further links to conspiracy. Gone were the demands for their ideological overlords to denounce the violence. Gone were the attempts at linking elected officials, to that violence. Suddenly, MVOA, or Make Violence Okay Again. While the targets of the violence yesterday was the left, little was said about the ideological climate which the left has created which makes these terrorists feel justified. For the last several years, they have given them a pass. Why should they think that anything would change now?

RE: Just Like That, Violence is OK Again
They're mostly peaceful folks, when they're not rioting. So, mostly peaceful. It's cool.
However, those daggum conservatives carrying American flags into the Capitol... insurrectionists, terrorists, white supremacists, etc.

It’s ok. The VP pulled a bunch of dollar bills out of her g-string to bail them out of jail
