People online are a bad sample to pull your conclusions from. It’s literally the same as people saying we’re all celebrating his death when it’s just wackos online. Of course rage bait is going to gather the most views clicks and interactions. Just saying. That argument goes both ways
Any Trump supporter I’ve talked to about Jan 6 irl call it a hoax and start going “they call us InSuRrEcTiOnIsTs 🙄” like that wasn’t exactly what the people that were involved in that incident were. Trump supporters for some reason personally identify with those that were there that day, and just downplay the entire thing
Also, you’re right, online is a bad sample. So stop being salty that people online are posting controversial takes over this guy’s death. People cheered when the dem speaker, her NON ELECTED OFFICIAL husband, and another senator were assassinated. Shitty people will cheer whenever a public figure dies. That’s life and not a political issue. The ONLY difference between these deaths and the responses to them is that the MN lawmakers and spouse that were murdered did not have platforms built on
Not really. And it’s not my argument I don’t even have an argument. I just like when people make stronger arguments and generalizations make for bad arguments every time. Both parties tend to make generalizations especially online. Just hoping to steer the discussion in a more productive direction
Yeah so the reason it doesn’t go both ways is because every time there was violence at a protest, officials on the left condemned those actions and called for peace. Officials on the right said “nuh uh didn’t happen you’re cwazy. We were making love that day and then woke secret service killed that lady and those cops” That’s why it doesn’t go both ways. Because reality doesn’t exist to these people and you can’t give leniency to people that can’t even believe in reality
Five people died as a result of the Capitol attack, including one rioter shot by police, another who died from a drug overdose, and three who died from natural causes, including a Capitol Police officer who suffered a stroke after being assaulted But they weren’t influencers promoting your political belief so they don’t matter! 🤩
