nah, I'm not.
A riot gets bigger coverage than a protest.

Originally posted by SurturI think they do know that they are inciting violence. Like I said, a riot sells better than a protest. It was likely to turn into a riot anyway, but they tipped the balance just at the right time. They're vultures.
Bingo, they stir division far far more. If Trumps tweets are so bad? Stop f*cking covering them. Nobody said you had to cover them. If they're inciting violence stop talking about them.But see, they don't really think they are inciting violence. That's the hilarious part here. They just wanna be little b*tches and whine. There are no words Trump could have uttered that would please these people. If he just said "This is awful, I hope everyone is okay, RIP George Floyd" we'd get weasels writing articles bringing up past "racist" comments. Cuz they always gotta whine. And if Trump doesn't give them anything to whine about today they'll just find something from yesterday or last week or last month to cry about.

That's the other alternative yeah. Either they don't think these things incite violence or they do and just do not care.
And notice how differently they treated the "protesters" here? Lockdown protesters were called "suicidal" by the media. Even the peaceful protesters are not all wearing masks and they sure as hell aren't social distancing. Nobody in the media is talking about how they're gonna get grandma killed.
To be clear I don't care if they social distance and if they get infected well Darwin has injured his neck he's been nodding so much lately. However, the hypocrisy is quite clear. Peaceful lockdown protests got poo poo'ed more than riots.
Nope, media ain't out of control:
Originally posted by SurturIt's all just division again, though. Portray the right-wing protestors as dangers to society, gun-wielding freaks; portray Antifa as a bunch of superheroes saving the black man from Trump.

The media wants Helter Skelter to happen. Think of the viewing figures.

And the gun wielders...didn't burn or attack or loot or riot lol.
And you had people wielding guns during the riots...protecting small businesses.
Never has the second amendment been so important and looking at how the cops retreated...from this moment on anyone who says "why do you need an AR-15" is a dumb motherf*cker.

Which is why I have a AR-15. I even have evil 60 and 100 round drums for it. 😈

*Yup, sounds like eye brow wiggling escapades, for sure.
I'm saving up to build one of those 50's style bomb shelters so I have a place I can go to be protected from trumps tweets
