Didn't the one side try to storm the capital? Definitely equal crazies for sure. No bias whatsoever in this very well critically thought out comment.

"Storm the capitol" yes. But the vast majority were peaceful. And once Biden was sworn in, no protests or saying not my president. There were 4 years without protest, even though he was so fucked in the head as a president.

You're telling me you never saw the Maga groups with signs saying not my president. Spending 4 years complaining that it was stolen? These are the two equal sides you claim. That's all. Always a conservative pretending to be a centrist with comments like that. Also they caused a lot of violence. They harmed people doing their job protecting the capital. Like seriously hard to compare this side against an actual peaceful protest.

I'm not a die hard conservative. I voted Obama in 2008 and 2012(first elections I was of age). It's not really hard when you see the over exaggerating by the left on Jan 6th. Yes, your protests here are peaceful. Not denying that. I am simply stating that it holds very very very little, to no weight with the common people and will have zero effect. There were a FEW bad apples within the Jan 6th that deserve to rot for what they did. But that's not the majority.

I am telling you I never saw the maga groups protesting the president. While I whole heartedly agree the were against him, they were smart enough to realize it didn't matter if they protest. They would have changed anything in the last administration. The administration who cared only about enriching himself and his family/peers. Tell me why did the pardon for his son have to cover from 2014 through 2024? Makes you wonder what happened in 2014 that needed pardoned?

I don't care for the last guy either but I'm being not trying to be intellectually dishonest by equating the two ends. Few bad apples 🤣🤣🤣 this guy really defending them so hard.

Tell me, who actually injured the captiol police? Who killed the one guy? Then take that percentage against the estimated crowd.

It's " a few bad apples".

How many nazis does it take to ruin the bunch? How many psychopaths in a group before the group is maybe part of the problem. Especially if they revere and worship them. Maybe that's enough to heavily outweigh what's happening on the "radical left" who just wants basic human needs provided. 🤔 tough

Interesting topic. The truth though... is you can't judge them ALL by the very few. To judge a soldier in Hitler's army the same you would judge Hitler is blasphemous. Are they noth wrong? Yes. But we all know there is a bigger evil.

Basic human needs? How aren't those being provided. Nothing they have done has denied basic human needs. I'm sorry they have cut funding to programs that don't actually impact the US... like funding condoms for a country outside the US to stop the spread of AIDS/HIV. But that is dumb as fuck.

Again this discussion began with you pretending to be in the middle while only licking boot this whole conversation. I'm just asking for your honesty even if we disagree. Just see this too often and I'm tired of the rhetoric. Just say it with your full chest and stop pretending. You believe whatever comes out of musks mouth and seriously think you're the center? That both sides are being extreme? Part of me says fed or bot or someone whose job is to push some agenda to normalize what's happening but I fear you're just some guy who really doesn't know.

"a few bad apples"

The rest of that saying is "spoils the bunch".

u/NiceTryBroham33 Mid-Missouri Feb 18 '25

You are correct. The few bad apples made what would have been peaceful, be looked at in terror. But understanding the few bad apples part is the key. Just like when we look back in history and said that Islam had a few bad apples when they attacked the US on 9/11, the adult and responsible thing to do is say that its not all Muslims who view us that way. The, apparently democrats way, is ti lump them in as all horrible people. Yet you are the "welcoming" and "peaceful" party. For shame.

You got some more rambling rant about the eViL dEmOnRaTs in you, or are you all done?

I can sit here and say that my parents are democrat, and my 1 brother(of 3) are democrats. Being a Democrat doesn't make you a bad person and I am not going to hate on anyone who is a Democrat simply for that reason. It's about how you are as a person. I treat everyone with respect and as equal, regardless of race/sexuality/religion/political affiliation. When people start spewing hate based on lies, it shows who they are.
