So was Timothy McVeigh, so is Brenton Tarrant, so are/were many other domestic terrorists around the world. The ethnicity of anyone taking part at the Capitol or in riots during the summer was never relevant nor being discussed. The point of that discussion was that not everyone who was at the Capitol or marching against racism while others burned down buildings is deserving of the label of terrorist, and that YOU blasting random people online with no evidence other than a photo of their presence helps nothing. Unfortunately you replied:
But apparently that only applies to those with a view opposing yours, and editorials and stand-up comics can repeatedly call for the death of the sitting President you don't like. That's OK to you, you'll have a laugh about it. Red/Blue/Black/Yellow/White/Green.... what's morally right doesn't have a colour. Not only are you a huge hypocrite and a partisan hack but you race-bait instead of admitting you're wrong when called out. And you try to subtly call ME racist?! As the admin representing this community as a whole your posting conduct is disgusting and disgraceful. The laughable irony of all your posts in this thread acting like you're some kind of moral compass for American democracy is that you live in a country that actually had its democracy overthrown right in front of you.

On this forum YOU'RE the propagandist, YOU'RE the sign holder with a cult fantasy. Enjoy your echo chamber  |
You're killing it on these false equivalencies huh? There is a lot of nuance to Susan Rosenburg and the Weather Underground.

To compare her to a white supremacist like Timothy McVeigh is pretty ignorant.
You're comparing a group that when in the 70's and 80's were actively fighting a very real subrogation of human/civil rights, by that of an extremely racist government.
White nationalists are fighting to continue a status quo, they are the individuals in power, and America has had a LONG history of white terrorism by rightwing groups and individuals.
But of course people like yourself love to grab the one character on the "left" to use as a false equivalency to say, "well hey, they got a few too, so same same".
No wonder the Canadian military has such a problem with white nationalists within its ranks right now.
One has to wonder with you, which came first, the chicken or the egg? Did you harbor these types of views before joining, or adopt them thereafter?
