>Those nice people were all setup. For sure, no doubt about it. I'm just amazed that so many showed up and they all seemed to collectively agree that "our mere presence at the capitol building will unfuck this clearly fucked situation". This is such an insane notion, it reveals the depths of just how well-conditioned we have become as "law-abiding" citizens. If we truly abide by the law, every state would have formed a militia, overthrown their local corrupt government and united with other states to destroy the federal government at every level using any means possible. The Constitution demands this, it is our duty as a people to resist tyranny. It is tyranny when we are forcefully shut down for any disease. It is tyranny when we are ordered not to bear arms. It is tyranny when we can be arrested for even speaking about these things or questioning certain things. It is tyranny when the federal government backs domestic terror groups which are used to intimidate the population. This is all tyranny, and republicans walked right into it because "Surely Daddy Trump wouldn't ever do us wrong, right? ...Right?" I wish Hillary had won in 2016, because there's no way republicans would've obeyed all this covid bullshit from her. They'd take it from Trump, though- they exposed the throat of the USA to Trump, and he fucking slashed it and ran off with his tail tucked, cash spilling out of his pockets, his brand bigger than ever.
