Civilization and its Discontents

[Henry Whalley]

Some are not content unless they have a belly full of fresh human blood. For example, the cultists of our American Pol Pot. It’s not complicated.

People saw that coming from a mile away as soon as the progressives started infiltrating the democrat party,but some try and not judge a whole party based on their personal interpretations.

I often wonder why people use certain names of those who throughout history that have zero reference to anybody,if they did very few would still be around to even speak or print them.

There has been a segment of only one party that has campaigned on creating enemies of the state and eliminating those who they do not agree with,or their political opposition,even a blind person can see that.

They do not even try and hide it.

AOC: People Have No Choice But to Violently Riot

In July of 2020, after a mob of leftists destroyed a statue of Christopher Columbus, Nancy Pelosi said “People will do what they do.”

In June when left wing radicals were rioting, burning and looting, CNN’s Chris Cuomo said “Please, show me where it says protesters are supposed to be polite and peaceful.”

Here are two attorneys attempting to help Trump overturn the will of the Pennsylvanian people,” the Lincoln Project tweeted with a picture of attorneys Carolyn McGee and Ronald Hicks. The tweet, which included the attorneys’ phone numbers and emails, added, “Make them famous,” with a skull and crossbones emoji.

Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin also warned that Republicans “now promoting rejection of an election or calling to not to follow the will of voters or making baseless allegations of fraud should never serve in office, join a corporate board, find a faculty position or be accepted into ‘polite’ society.”“We have a list,” the Washington Post writer said.

1. Show me where Republicans forcefully took over a portion of a city.
2. Show me where Republicans attacked a federal courthouse and set it on fire.
3. Show me where Republicans burned down police stations.
4. Show me where a Republican Congressman told his/her supporters to attack a president’s cabinet members.
5. Show me where Republicans attacked a Senator’s home when only his wife and newborn baby were home.
6. Show me where Republicans attackedDemocrat politicians or the White House press secretary and her family in restaurants.
7. Show me where Republicans attackedDemocrats coming out of a campaign rally.
   Show me where Republicans attacked Democrat politicians and their spouses leaving a national convention.
8. Show me where Trump supporters descend on Democrat rallies and throw cement milkshakes at their heads.

Good times evident in that compilation. Thank goodness not many of those eh, events occurred in Detroit!

[Henry Whalley]

...Detroit!

That word is not allowed in the non-Detroit issues forum.

Nor did many of them even occur at all.

[Zacha341]

I think I'd like talk to some of the business owners and residents in those areas to see get their opinion as to the many and the few. I say this not excusing the mess in DC. I AM NOT.

But to debate that DC has been the only disruption/ protest with violence is just too partisan obliged IMO.

I didn't.

^ Ok, I hear that. I think I am feeling a bit bristled as too many are......

What planet do you live on?

Yikes. I'll be banished to the cornfield...........

How's about I just say the 'D'!?

[Gistok]

Oh Richard after another one of your long winded weak analogy soliloquys... here's something that you might find interesting.

After last summer's civil unrest... what did the Trump administration do? They gutted the DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis... the group that warns of potential civil unrest... [[the text, not the video)...

https://abcnews.go.com/US/months-ahe...posts_card_hed

We look forward to reading [[not) your spin on how this was not the administrations fault...

Maybe we can call this "Benghazi II"...

I fail to see why someone needs a government agency to point out there are rioters burning down and looting your city for three months. But then, there are always those that are slow to catch on.

[Meddle]

I fail to see ...

We've seen that.

Ah yes, libtards, the party of the people.

More tolerance and acceptance by the peace loving party of the people.

You're telling jokes! Ha-ha-ha! "an" example. "acting goofy". Just peaceful, fun-loving liberals, leaving expended shotgun shells in front of people's business doors. Showing up in packs in the middle of the night at legislators homes, asking their children what schools they attend, breaking down security gates and fences, torching blocks of buildings, bankrupting civilians, their business, their livelihoods. Whooo, give me a minute, my sides hurt from laughing.

To be fair, they were attending a rally to spread seditious lies in an attempt to overturn a national election, which resulted in the president cheerleading a treasonous violent mob insurrection on the U.S. Capitol in order to try to attack members of Congress and effect a coup d'etat. Folks sometimes get a little touchy about that sort of thing.

Yes, attending a support rally for the political party of your choice, certainly warrants threats of bodily injury, and death, to you, your loved ones, your employees, your livelihood, and your domicile. I believe the same thing happened in Germany around 1933. Perhaps mandate all Republicans must wear white armbands with a blue letter "R" stitched in the center so they're easily identifiable?

Göring's commentary[edit]

Göring [[first row, far left) at the Nuremberg trials

In The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, William L. Shirer wrote that at the Nuremberg Trials, General Franz Halder stated in an affidavit that Hermann Göring had boasted about setting the fire: "On the occasion of a lunch on the Führer's birthday in 1943, the people around the Führer turned the conversation to the Reichstag building and its artistic value. I heard with my own ears how Göring broke into the conversation and shouted: 'The only one who really knows about the Reichstag building is I, for I set fire to it.' And saying this he slapped his thigh".^[47] Under cross-examination at the Nuremberg trial in 1945 and 1946, Halder's affidavit was read to Göring, who denied any involvement in the fire.^[48]:433

Do you really want to go down that road?

To be clear, I don't support threats of bodily injury and death against anyone peaceful. That includes the Congress people of the Republican party that Republican Rep. Meijer said voted for the overthrow of the election because they and their families were being threatened and they felt endangered by the right-wing mobs [[although they are still responsible for how they voted).

That was not any ol' regular support rally on Wednesday. It was, after over 2 months of getting nowhere trying to legally press his false case, Trump's last desperate attempt to overturn the legal result of the presidential election by any means necessary. Those means included sending a violent mob to surround and invade the Capitol of the U.S. in order to try to stop Congress from performing their constitutionally mandated duties.

This did indeed bear a certain resemblance to historical events in Germany. I would say that it was a little more like the Nazis' pretty inept Beer Hall Putsch coup attempt of 1923. But as you seem to know something about that history, I will assume you know where that lead by your cited year of 1933. I won't even dignify the ridiculous armband joke with a response, except to say that that's an odd image to pick for a party whose supporters have marched while chanting "Jews will not replace us" and who choose to wear "Camp Auschwitz" shirts to a "support rally" for the political party of their choice.

Maybe not the last, he may try for another coup during the inauguration as he’ll be in charge of security.
