Conservatives automatically assume

If Black people riot, it’s “BLM”
If white people riot, it’s “antifa”

The goal is to demean these groups via guilt by association. It doesn’t matter if the “rioters” are in fact local gangs having no connection to BLM or white gangs like the Proud Boys not connected to antifa, and in some places, even fighting with antifa.

It’s funny but liberals always take this view. When BLM protested here there was a huge amount of violence, criminal damage and policemen injured. They even attacked the war memorials which were a memorial to people fighting against fascism. They have been death threats to people who won’t cow-tow to them. And one of their leaders was on advocating all this on the media. Interesting I’m just reading that there are apparently nightly protests for what is called ‘social justice’ which involve mass lootings. People in New York tell of gang robberies at restaurants in broad daylight, of lootings, shootings and boarded-up shops. Funny that people who identify as liberals mysteriously stay away from the city of late.

@Speedyman I live outside of Philadelphia and work in the city. It's a ghost town right now. A lot of people have left and are not coming back. That's going to impact the city immensely. That's a huge amount of revenue and taxes no longer coming into their coffers.

In a very petty way, I am looking forward to next year when they realize the massive shortfall they have in their budget and start pointing fingers and making bad choices that hurt the very people they ostensibly are allowing all this violence to occur on their behalf.

@Speedyman You blame BLM for the “violence” when much of it was done by people with no connection to BLM, or by right wing gangs like the Proud Boys and the Boogaloos. So you’re just another ignorant racist POS lapping up the Fox News lies without delving any further. They’re telling you exactly what you want to hear, so you believe them.

The violence was done by BLM supporters and the death threats of come from BLM supporters. I know you are the sort who think these people can do no wrong but you are totally and utterly naive and ignorant. You are the racist because you are calling innocent people racists and trying to brand everybody else racists. You are just hopeless. We don’t get Fox News over here so I’m going by what the British media are saying and we have a sports people receiving death threats from BLM supporters. Interesting that they can be rioting, attacks on police, looting, death threats - But if anyone objects to it they are a racist@LeopoldBloom

@Speedyman @sunsporter1649 There's no point. You two are brainwashed. You're probably both jacking off to the video of the young Nazi shitstain murdering those protesters in Kenosha.

The violence is all from your side, folks. But keep pushing us and see what happens. Many of us are armed, too. We just don't wave our guns around the way you guys do to make up for your deficiencies in other areas.

"You're a racist because you call people racist who aren't racist." You're a moron, Slowman.

@LeopoldBloom Another one who buys into the fake media bullschiff. Amusing

@sunsporter1649 You're referring to yourself?

Interesting story about the guy you have a crush on. I went to college with James Rogan, a Republican who represented California's 27th district from 1997 to 2001. Rogan was one of the House managers for the Clinton impeachment. Rogan lost his seat in 2001 to...wait for it...Adam Schiff.

@LeopoldBloom And of course those 2 "peaceful protesters" were singing songs and holding flowers, right?

Speedyman · 70-79, M

And you know nothing. You are just a brainwashed liberal. You know nothing about what’s going on over here and about the violence against our police . You just suck up all the nonsense. We also get reports from some of our correspondence over there and they all tell us what is happening so we’re not as idiotic as you to believe that BLM are sweetness and light. The problem is with you is that you lose an argument and then and then accuse others of being brainwashed when you are utterly brainwashed yourself into this absolute liberal nonsense. The trouble is it’s not liberal it’s Stalinist. You need to wake up and put your brain in gear if you’ve got one@LeopoldBloom
