I said it was a holy shit moment that orange man bad was contemplating calling a state of emergency over the election results. I'm not understating how serious that was. Trumps' speech on the 6th was bad too. I've never claimed otherwise.
There are levels to this shit though. I need to buy a clue because I'm not willing to say that some clowns breaking into a building and putting their feet up on desks and writing letters to Nancy Pelosi is not quite comparable to thousands of people dying? If you have nightmares of shirtless dudes in viking helmets coming for all of your rights like the Nazis did, then more power to you, but I just don't see it how you see it.
That's a funny caricature of my opinion, but given that you don't know me from Adam's housecat, it simply tells me you're comfortable imputing stuff without knowing about the person you're talking about.
I'd be happy to link you to numerous article delineating the threat, but I doubt you'd be much interested, given your apparent distrust of all media. It makes me wonder where do you get your news from? What sources do you find trustworthy?

Oh, so you don't even live here? No wonder you're so blithe about American democracy.

Feel free to quote where I compared it to Pearl Harbor. I'll wait; I know you'll be forever, because, you know, I haven't.
But since you seem to be applying that comparison to people who've never used it, I'll tell what I do think of iL Pearl Harbor was more deadly but less dangerous. Obviously 2,403 killed is a lot more than one, but on the other hand the Japanese were starting a war they could never win, while the far right here in America could certainly win so long as people remain blasé, as you'd apparently advise.
You defended Kamala Harris pairing J6 with Pearl Harbor and 9/11, and basically called me a moron who needed to get a clue for having an issue with that, so forgive me for the misunderstanding. I've stated that it was awful what happened on J6, but for most people that are responding here, they seem to be making the argument that it's not really humanly possible to exaggerate what happened on J6. You see people invoking WWII, the Holocaust and 'Never forget". One person died. The vote was delayed for a few hours. The threat the right poses is not that they broke into a building and roughed up some cops. The threat of the right is their politics. It's their wanting to take away the right to abortion. It's their wanting to teach the wrong things to children in school. If you want to say that taking away abortion rights is worse than Pearl Harbor, then I'm right there with you and I would concur, but that is not what you are doing. The topic here is supposed to be J6 and what happened on that day. Not about the threat Republicans pose based on their political positions.
