US protests/riots 2020

[Emjay]

What to expect if the crazies get their way, I'd say. The Dems need to condemn this shet and start moving away from the far-left. It's this stuff that gets Trump more support.

We haven't seen Republicans doing this. Only lefties in Democrat-run cities.

It's funny that for literally years we've had lefties and the media complaining about the non-existent violence from the far-right and now look. Look who is actually the ones causing all the violence. The far-left.

You cannot discount extremist right wing violence. It is there.

But the lack of any voices who were so concerned about right wing violence is amusing. I recall how people until very recently were very vocal about what happened in Charlottesville. It's like BLM took what happened there and said "hold my beer", but on a national scale.

It's also very funny to watch how people were marching (peacefully) for the lock down to end and they were mocked and ridiculed. The problematic words and signs of a few individuals were projected onto entire groups. They were condemned because they were spreading the virus. Zero empathy for their plight (and that still persists), or even any sort of willingness to at least try understand those people's point of view.

Just look at this amazing nugget.

The Great Irony of America’s Armed Anti-Lockdown Protesters

They say they are demonstrating against tyranny, but they are in fact enjoying an extreme—and dangerous—sort of liberty.

Assembly under these conditions cannot and will not be tolerated for long. Governments are often eager to place limitations on public protest, to make it rare and less disruptive. Armed protest provides the perfect excuse to curtail and restrict assembly. Especially if, God forbid, one such protest were to erupt in violence. We enjoy the right of assembly, and we—all of us—can make proper use of it, only so long as it is peaceful.

It's sure a very interesting time.

Oh, look. Only now the usual crowd is interested in what is happening.

"Right wing militia man".

 

[Vorastra]

Not so sure about that. From what I understand is guy with the rifle was part of an armed group guarding businesses from peaceful protesters.

Bicepless guy was part of peaceful blm/antifa. In that vid you can see him running up to rifle guy, probably preparing to shoot him. Rifle guy shot him in self defense.

Read the tweets I linked earlier on, unless you have info I don't.

Yeah just the other day an elderly man was almost killed trying to protect his own business. People are fed up with these blm/antifa terrorists. Glad that people have arrived with guns to help tbh

I wonder if this would have been news cycle worthy if it were Biden supporters?

Hardest video for me to watch so far has been the people beating a raccoon to death as it is fighting for it life. The animal has fkall to do with the movement, it just shows that these protests are hijacked by thugs and goons

Me too.
At a riot last year (I think in Hermanus) the comrades broke into a factory and killed the owner's parrot.
Going back to Kenya all those years ago many farm animals were simply hamstrung by the invading comrades.

In a blatant display of left-wing media bias, staffers at CNN altered a chyron mid-report to distort the truth about riots taking place in Kenosha, Wisconsin, following the recent police shooting of 29-year-old black man, Jacob Blake.

I very much can. When have right-wing extremists done hundreds of millions in damage and killed this many people in recent times? What are we at now? 30 dead? When have the Republicans protected them like the Democrats are currently protecting these left-wing rioters?

I haven't seen Republican mayors and governors explicitly telling the police to not intefere. I haven't seen Republican DA's refusing to prosecute rioters and letting them go.

Right-wing extremism may exist, but not to this level nor endorsed by a party like this left-wing destruction has.

You cannot condemn one side while downplaying or ignoring the other. You are literally doing exactly what I am criticizing the Left for doing (or, not doing).

The Escalating Terrorism Problem in the United States

The United States faces a growing terrorism problem that will likely worsen in the next year, particularly around the 2020 presidential election. The most significant threat likely comes from white supremacists, though anarchists and religious extremists could also pose a threat.

Did you read the article...?

To be clear, terms like right-wing and left-wing terrorism do not—in any way—correspond to mainstream political parties in the United States, such as the Republican and Democratic parties, which eschew terrorism. Instead, terrorism is orchestrated by a small minority of extremists.

First, right-wing terrorism refers to the use or threat of violence by sub-national or non-state entities whose goals may include racial or ethnic supremacy; opposition to government authority; anger at women, including from the incel (“involuntary celibate”) movement; and outrage against certain policies, such as abortion.

Second, left-wing terrorism involves the use or threat of violence by sub-national or non-state entities that oppose capitalism, imperialism, and colonialism; pursue environmental or animal rights issues; espouse pro-communist or pro-socialist beliefs; or support a decentralized social and political system such as anarchism.

We're not even talking about the same context of left and right...
Muslim extremists would be considered far-right extremists....
Do you think they are voting for right-wing US parties...?

Left and right depends on the context that's being discussed.

The current BLM protesters would literally be labelled as far-right extremists under these definitions, because they demonstrate, "opposition to government authority;", while Antifa would be far-left or far-right considering who you ask as some demonstrate, "support a decentralized social and political system such as anarchism. " or "opposition to government authority;".

I'll say again, the use of "left and right" are contextually sensitive.

Do you think they are voting for right-wing US parties...?

No, those would be under “religious”. As shown on the graph.

 

[Vorastra]

For the graph. On what political spectrum would you class religious attacks...?
By nature, religion is considered "conservative".
Can you even get left-wing religious terrorists...?

It's beside the point. I specify further down in my comment. The definitions themselves are not in the same context as what we're talking about.

As I’ve said before:

Islamic terrorists are pretty right wing and conservative. You can’t pretend otherwise.

Although over here we’re discussing the graph where they’re separated. The right wing terrorism on the graph is not religious therefore emjay’s point stands.

1 - a twitter post from the same kind of demented fool that you are saying someone is far right militia - doesn't make it so. And even if he is, they're just as loony and vile as your lot. Try again with muh peeps
2 - unlike you, I never find glee or celebrate violence. You have literally been called out on being happy at innocent peoples misery because you're a sicko.

But keep going

A very apt quote fits you:

Maybe you're just sitting around, reading "Guns and Ammo", masturbating in your own feces, do you just stop and go, 'Wow! It is amazing how ****ing crazy I really am!

Except for you it's Twitter.

 

[wbot]

Read the tweets I linked earlier on, unless you have info I don't.

Here you go. Rifle dude was part of armed civilians protecting businesses from looters/arsonists. It appears though that the guy shot in head has possibly died. Maybe also skateboard guy:

Two shot dead and one wounded after BLM protests in Kenosha

Two people were killed and another wounded in Kenosha, Wisconsin on Tuesday night during clashes between protesters and militia following a wave of looting.

[¯\_(ツ)_/¯]

Holy ****. The depravity of people knows no bounds. Animal abuse. Shooting each other to pieces. Ruining people's financial well being and their life's work. But let's keep making everything about race. Seems like it's a great way to social cohesion.

Who can really say it was not predictable?

Create a divisive message based upon something already shown hundreds of times to cause conflict.
Blow it up in the media.
Call riots peaceful protests.
Dis the very foundation of Western civilization.
Consider the leadership of said group ....



Everything is going exactly as planned. Who really thought it was about lives of any colour?
