Happy new year, welcome to 2020 part II.

Isn’t this part III?


Nvm I get the joke now

Also happy January 6th to all those who celebrate


I for one will proudly celebrate the imprisonment of the January 6 rioters. It makes me smile that that so many racist, bigoted, awful families were destroyed.


i dont like condemning anyone for trying to overthrow the usa govt. i will condemn them for being racist


I don't know if I'd call what they were trying to do in installing Trump as dictator amounts to trying to overthrow the US government.

I think I'll continue my new tradition of visiting an art museum on J6. I'd much rather be reminded of the people who create beautiful things in the world, and not those who wish to destroy things.


twitter just reminded me that someone tazed their balls on jan 6th and died

Plenty of artists, writers, etc were horrible people. Racist, sexist, you name it.

Also, many museums are full of stolen artifacts and art.

Or does your aversion to racism and bigotry only extend to reality tv stars?


Kind of funny to be upset at J6 protestors for bigotry and racism when Trump opponent is lol Biden who is insanely racist and also molests little girls


Also love the idea that Trump is uniquely a dictator as the dude currently in office as arming and funding a a gencocide that is, unprecedented for America, actually massively unpopular (even within his own administration!)


But I get it. Gotta defend the faux democracy with its fake elections whenever the team you root for wins

For whatever it’s worth, not all the families that were torn apart were themselves all racist bigots. It only takes one in a family to tear it apart. Believe me. It’s how I lost mine. The pain has been unbearable.

(Edit- we had a qanon casualty, not a rioter, but they managed to get similar results)

And that’s only the surface of Biden’s authoritarian bullshit. He is Trump’s equal in so many ways.


I really don’t want to do this year. There won’t be any “winners” imo.


What the billionaire funded Democratic Party machine did to keep sanders from winning the nomination 2 elections in a row was 99999999999 times more of an affront to a theoretical democracy than a few hundred idiots milling around aimlessly and taking pictures inside of the offices of the worlds biggest insider trading cartel

Rich people will win. As they always do

Oh, so I don't have the choice of which museum to visit now? **** off with this lame attempt at whataboutism.

A few hundred? 900 people are serving close to 900 years in prison for crimes related to the insurrection. You're not wrong about Bernie getting completely shafted and I would never defend that. But man, you just love to make **** up and then downplay and minimize actually verifiable data. Wonder why that is. Can't make your point with facts alone?
