In reply to the discussion: Did Garland just say...? [View all]Oneironaut
(5,495 posts)What frustrates me the most about these people is that theyre purposely acting as if the US Capitol attack, the school boards chaos, etc. are / were either not politically motivated, or, the fault of Democrats as well because of the toxic atmosphere in politics now. Theyre trying to extend an olive branch to Conservatives by pretending that Liberals do it too! which is incredibly frustrating and spineless.
Good Lord. Just say it as it is - Pro-Trump protestors attacked the US Capitol with the intent of stopping the certification of a candidate they didnt like, and they were told to do so by Trump and his cronies. The school board stuff and threats are coming straight from right wing hate speech, or encouragement from people like Tucker Carlson. I cant believe the amount of mental hoops people are jumping through when making statements like Garlands. It annoys the absolute shit out of me.
