    I love how a political party on the side of events such as Charlottesville and Jan 6 gets to now virtue signal about “being against political violence”, with media pretty much staying silent and not calling them out.

      I remember when J6 was first kicking off and the news was hitting the major cable outlets. One of the first things I saw right-wing shock jocks claim was that the rioters were Antifa, that this was a False Flag, and that they were trying to kill the brave Senators arguing for a full recount of a sham election that liberals had rigged in their favor.

      It’s always, always, always projection.
