    i get what you are saying, but we all really want the jan 6 type people persecuted.

    we both know a “jan 6 for the right reasons” would be punished much more swiftly than this anyway.

      “We can’t fight back because then the Nazis will take the opportunity to punish us harder” has got to be in my top 5 cowardly thought-stopping bullshit comments.

      You might also have gone with:

      “It’s not as EASY as you seem to think”

      “Yeah, well what have YOU done??”

      “Did you not see the VERY effective and not-at-all-a-huge-joke No Kings protests a month ago?”

      “Keyboard warrior!”

          I think people are tired of hearing comments from Americans that appear to make excuses for inaction.

            i’m not usian, and i don’t get how wanting to punish jan6 adjacent people is passing as an excuse for inaction.

            but i kinda want to know why people are arguing with stuff i didnt say today.

              Anglocentrism. Everyone thinks you’re talking in the context of the US, a politically ridiculous place.
