Um...duh? I fucking watched it live. I always hate people saying that the media somehow pushed a narrative. Maybe they did, I don't watch broadcast or cable TV. But I literally watched the event unfolding live on the TV above my desk. I watched Trump supporters match on the capital AS INSTRUCTED.
Let's just hope the orange turd never returns to the Whitehouse...
People keep calling it a riot, we all know what happened but that subtle rebranding does a lot to subconsciously change how people feel about it.
A riot is when a crowd spontaneously becomes violent and starts breaking shit.
People don't bring zip ties and build gallows at riots, they don't plan and rehearse for riots, people don't get guided tours from insiders of the place they're planning to riot in a few months.
That's why it needs to keep being said loudly that it was an insurrection and why people should be careful to never call it a riot.Imagine spontaneously building a gallows, like where the fuck would you even find the wood at in the capital?? Who randomly thinks "I should take multiple 12 foot lengths of 2x4 to hear the person who lost the election speak?
Who else thinks a big old fat length of rope is what I should take with me to see the peaceful transfer of power for myself?
Fuck those cunts.
I saw the gross trash in person a few blocks away....it looked like the worst trash of Winston era NASCAR fandom decided to put their foot down.....I was in DC for work not treason and was disgusting looking at the lot of them.
Please note that Winston cup NASCAR wasn't all full of trash but all country trash was fans of NASCAR.
I watched it live being streamed by the insurrectionists themselves. There were tons of aggregation streams on Twitch showing several different angles from inside the crowd, just switching between the ones with interesting things happening. I'd say that's about the most non-mainstream source to see it through possible, and even through that lense, it was obvious that it was an insurrection.
