Then what did I say that is so unhinged? All I did was post articles that disputed the anarchy and warlords scenario that was being put out. Did I read all those articles wrong or something?

Then went down a stupid rabbit hole about if I would be ok if it was happening outside my door which I explained that I think is an ignorant way to think about things.

National media is obviously skewing the Seattle situation to fit the Trump narrative. It isn’t as bad as I’m reading shel interpret and a city council member invited them in. They also gave them space in the streets to organize so that they didn’t take over the entire business district. Small business around the area has shown support but I’m not there so don’t know first hand. My wife and I were laughing at this thread when I was like, “what are they talking about?”

I HIGHLY doubt the national media is skewing anything for a Trump narrative

Chappelle on all the stuff going on nowadays.

Not all just funny, some jokes sprinkled in.

But as usual, funny and just in general really good stuff.

Leaning either way makes you a fuckboy in my books. Have the
ability to make decisions based on every situation. It’s not hard.

The only thing in your life that should lean is your dick in your boxers.

Just watched the Seattle police chief said there have been rapes and robberies that her force has not been able to get to.

Sounds like a great place

I thought we aren't supposed to judge an entire group based on a few "bad apples"?

I think the problem was that he didn't come with any ideologies. If he explained what he agreed or disagreed with on the topic instead of trolling there would have been no reason to give him that kind of response. 🤷‍♂️

So why the protests if we aren't supposed to judge the many because of the few?

We get it, you are ANTIFA...
