It's the right call.

Trump on Twitter just toxic narcissist behaviour and it's filling people with hate and rage.

But you have to wonder what makes people so susceptible to fall for this dude. It's not as if Trump pretends to be a healthy, balanced grown up. He has been a belligerent cunt for decades.

That's precisely the point. It's okay to be a cunt when the most powerful person in the world is. He's a symbol for not needing to have decency or to hold any moral values to get far in life.

No they shouldn't, but they certainly did a better job collectively at condemning this by their own volition than the democrats did with the BLM riots.
I wouldn't say so, I'd actually say it was pretty equal. Just like with the Democrats then, you have "10 second speeches" or tweets from Republicans now. The only difference is, Republicans got to do it all at once because it happened while everyone was gathered in the same room at the same time and televised, so perhaps that's where you're getting this impression from. Also we must take into account some of them, Lindsey Graham for example, actively contributed to it by continuing to spread bullshit inflammatory rhetoric. But oh, now that it has culminated into action it's "enough is enough". A bit too late there. Or better yet, how about the ones essentially denying that it happened by saying it was some sort of false flag operation?

Perhaps you don't, but the reality is that many people do. What happened to being against false information? Where were the fact-checkers?
Who is out there watching following the analysis of Chris Cuomo? He doesn't have a cult following like Fox News anchors have, it doesn't work like that. I'm not sure what specific line you were referring to, but how would one fact check an "interpretation" as you called it?

The very fact that you have big-name personalities saying that this stuff is okay or doesn't bother them is worrying, irrespective of party affiliation. Thuggery is thuggery.
Interestingly, in that misleading independent article you sent, only one entered the building. The article accuses the other 5 of 'participating in the riot' for simply just being there at the rally. It's like they think everyone who turned up was prepared to storm the capitol, lol. They lumped them into the same group as the thugs, but god forbid anyone lumps the few Antifa looters with the majority peaceful BLM protestors.
:lol: Nothing was misleading. Whether they entered the building or not, the same group that marched to the Capitol is the same group the broke in. This was planned weeks ago, this wasn't some spontaneous occurrence. It was known that this was the intention. Because of this, they deserve to be lumped in imo. Obviously not Republicans or conservatives in general, but definitely every single person that went to that rally, some a week in advance, absolutely deserve to be lumped into that group.

I don't see a point in continuing this as we are going in circles, but the differences in magnitude of these two events are clear as day. All I will say is that you don't see anymore looting or rioting regarding any sort of BLM anything after that one or two weeks, but now you watch what happens in the coming months and years in this country.

LOL this was their daft reasoning. Apparently not turning up to the inauguration incites violence now. :rofl:
You could've at least thrown a spoiler on that 16 foot long post :disagree:

Parler literally has alt-right people calling for civil war, executing the Vice President and members of congress by firing squad, etc. The company should be banned from all operating systems and the people advocating such things charged with plotting sedition and terrorist acts.

Well i guess we can agree to disagree. I am yet to recall several big shot democrats come out and openly criticise the riots.

Lindsey Graham for example, actively contributed to it by continuing to spread bullshit inflammatory rhetoric.
I mean, he definitely contributed to the anger that stemmed from the insurrection, but at least he came out and denounced the violence. I could say the same thing with Harris when she told protestors not to back down or give up. I'd say that's inflammatory.
Plus I don't think any Republican would have supported this insurrection as it was pretty inconvenient from their standpoint. They were interrupted from raising their objections. After the whole fiasco happened, it would have been inappropriate to continue.

Who is out there watching following the analysis of Chris Cuomo? He doesn't have a cult following like Fox News anchors have, it doesn't work like that. I'm not sure what specific line you were referring to, but how would one fact check an "interpretation" as you called it?
He wrongly presumed that peaceful protest was not in the constitution. If Hannity and Tucker can get fact-checked, then I don't see why he can't. He's not any old journalist, he's the brother of the Governor of NY and a top CNN presenter.

Nothing was misleading. Whether they entered the building or not, the same group that marched to the Capitol is the same group the broke in. This was planned weeks ago, this wasn't some spontaneous occurrence. It was known that this was the intention. Because of this, they deserve to be lumped in imo. Obviously not Republicans or conservatives in general, but definitely every single person that went to that rally, some a week in advance, absolutely deserve to be lumped into that group.
Again, if you and I can agree that looters and antifa don't deserve to represent the majority of BLM, then the same thing can be applied here too.

Sorry, I don't comment much so I don't know how. :boh:

Perhaps they should. But banning alt-right platforms or any others that folks disagree with will only lead to more escalation. This very topic is partly why the alt-right is becoming more aggressive -- they don't have a right to exist on any platform, and now that Trump is basically silenced it will probably only lead to more radicalization. Plus "authorities" can easily track idiots making threats on said platforms.

Banning everything the left doesn't like will surely backfire in the long run.

The republican leaders that are condemning the violence are responsible for the violence.

That’s it, that’s the difference.
After the violence in the cities this summer, didn't several city councils across the country claim the solution was to defund the police? That's nothing but rewarding bad behavior.
