So...a cuban refugee talks about coming here by boat to escape communism.

I reckon living in Florida and being wealthy gives him the stage. What about others escaping tyrannical home situations?
I guess they arent from the right countries, maybe.

Oh, no - America's Communists will get it right this time. Just ask them - they're burning down the cities and bashing people in the street right now.
@graphite Hmmm... No posts, no pfp, just constant shit stirring comments. Faaaaaake!

@canusernamebemyusername how many times do you reckon they can burn down the same buildings?
sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M
@Carla Coming to a city near you soon
Carla · 61-69, F
@sunsporter1649 I highly doubt that.
sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M
@Carla When they arrive I wish you luck
@graphite The people doing that aren’t communists, Adolf.
Carla · 61-69, F
@sunsporter1649 I live almost an hour from any "city". And I feel quite positive no one is coming to start rioting in the streets.
@Carla Funny how January 6 has changed everything. Apparently when right-wingers riot they’re patriots. Those hypocrites. 🙄

@bijouxbroussard there is a very visible difference in a spontaneous riot and a planned, armed, violent attempted coup. Complete with individuals targeted for death.

@Carla Like in portland and seattle?
@sunsporter1649 That photo is from Belarus, Adolf.
sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M
@LeopoldBloom portland is in belarus?
@sunsporter1649 That photo isn’t Portland.

I lived in Portland - what street is that?

No one gets arrested at the Summer of Love 'spontaneous' riots.
sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M
@LeopoldBloom More bullschiff from a left-wing cultist. No burning of Federal Buildings there, eh?
Carla · 61-69, F
@Budwick there have been many arrests.

Funny though how those "patriots" were so confident that they had governmental approval that they ignorantly splashed their names and faces all over everywhere.
So...moronic "patriots" get arrested and sedition is on the table for many of them.
They are your crowd bud, were you there? Is the fbi looking for you? Are you a moron?
Budwick · 70-79, M
@Carla
there have been many arrests.

And just as many released.
Stop it Carla - just stop it.
You're a smart girl, you know the truth.
I get it, you want the people that broke into the capitol building toasted.
So do I.

Now, abo9ut those people that burned American cities all summer,...
Carla · 61-69, F
@Budwick I, nor you, know the numbers arrested nor the charges.
Bud...riots and looting and general public disorder have been happening since, forever.
I am completely on board with holding those that committed crimes this summer accountable. I just cant compare the severity of spontaneous riots with a planned, treasonous act. I just cant.
But be assured, I firmly believe that violence, as a form of protest, is never the answer and I condemn any body, group, etc., that advocates it.
sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M
@Carla LOL, like those planned, treasonous acts in portland all summer?
Carla · 61-69, F
@sunsporter1649 give it a rest, sporto. You bring zero to the table.
sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M
@Carla Yup, ignore the obvious, since it fits not your left-wing cultist agenda, eh?
Budwick · 70-79, M
@Carla
I just cant compare the severity of spontaneous riots with a planned, treasonous act. I just cant.

Can't?
Or, Won't?

I can't justify either event.

How close to agreement on this are we?
Carla · 61-69, F
@Budwick pretty close. We both agree both are wrong.
The severity of the meaning and implications are where we have yet to come together.

Oh...cant.
Budwick · 70-79, M
@Carla The meaning and implication gets into some very subjective areas. Stuff easily blown out of proportion. And, of course we'll never know the meaning or implications, cuz ALL the attacks have been poorly reported on.

Now, personally, I think that's by design.
So people like you and I will fight about it.

We could be their marionettes, give them what they want,
get at each others throats wildly,
let it boil over across the country,
until they declare martial law.

OR - maybe we can do something nobody expects,
and work together to demand those pulling our strings to stop.
Carla · 61-69, F
@Budwick that all sounds easily doable.

Let me ask you, bud...have you seen the videos from the insurrectionists? There are many.
You simply need no news crew to report on what is easily seen and is recognizable.
Chants calling for death. People being savaged. People openly advocating taking down the govt.
The whole scene was brutal. And pointed. Unlike the violence this summer, which too was brutal, but not as pointed.
See...there is the "I cant" compare the two as though they are both apples.
