  1. The rioters did delay certification but there was never any possibility of an electoral vote going to the House. The plan to raise objections to the electoral slate also had no possibility of success and was PR to show they were trying to do something to support Trump. McConnell quickly got tired of it and put his foot down that day regarding certification. This is all just fan fiction. The MAGA chuds on the right believe they are part of some valiant fight to stop the steal while the libtards on the “left” believe a fascist coup was nearly perpetrated. None of its real and none of it matters.
  2. I said in the thread that the actions of the Capitol police were to blame for what happened. However, to pretend that some mob of dipshits without any prior planning were going to topple a global hegemon is so absurd that it’s difficult to even muster a response. You are the liberal equivalent of Q followers.
  3. These posts were made in response to my post below in the bottom link: https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/index.php?/topic/18467-the-us-capitol-has-been-breached-action-and-developing-stories/&do=findComment&comment=2951959 https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/index.php?/topic/18467-the-us-capitol-has-been-breached-action-and-developing-stories/&do=findComment&comment=2951993 https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/index.php?/topic/18467-the-us-capitol-has-been-breached-action-and-developing-stories/&do=findComment&comment=2951920 Within the CR, if you believe it's vile to make the morbid comments Chu made then you are a "Nazi supporter" who should be censored from the board. It's one thing to throw that term around glibly on the internet as has always been done, but I don't see why posters should be banned for innocuous posts (certainly far less histrionic than calling random people on the internet Nazi supporters) because they are deemed to be in support of the wrong tribe even when that's not even what's going on.
  4. The reason that BC has not been crowd sourced is because, although he differs from many of the posters in the CR, he is at heart a democrat. For that reason he does not question or mock many of the CR shibboleths no matter how absurd they may be, such as the fatuous idea that Trump conspired with Putin during the 2016 election or that Trump is akin to Hitler or Mussolini in his authoritarianism. If you question those things are you deemed to be a Trumper and thus must be crowd sourced no matter what your actual politics are. Indeed, I was called a Nazi for arguing that we shouldn't celebrate the deaths of the idiot protestors who stormed the Capitol.
  5. I know that you're proud of how you and the others acted in that thread. That doesn't surprise me at all. There is an authoritarian streak in liberals as much as there is in conservatives, the difference being the identity of the out group.
  6. Please show me where I did that. I mainly argued that at no point was there ever a risk of our government being toppled or a civil war breaking out, even if a hostage situation were to arise. This episode was about as threatening to our "democracy" as the shooting of Steve Scalise, which is to say it wasn't.
  7. I refrained from visiting it for the most part but I'm interested in politics so it can be hard to stay away completely. Even then, a handful of posts in a single thread that they interpret as not being supportive of their team can result in hundreds of negs. Some of the more insane posters will even pull up your entire posting history so they can neg posts that have nothing to do with the topic that triggered them in the first place. As an example, arguing that we shouldn't celebrate the deaths of the handful of wingnuts who died at the Capitol the other day will get you neg bombed. These people have some of the blandest politics imaginable but at the same time are viscously tribal and monomaniacal in rooting out and exterminating the perceived enemy.
  8. They are for the most part centrists so they would be to the left of Von Mises but to the right of the New Dealers and maybe even Nixon. It's on "social issues" where their liberal streak shines.
  9. People have always complained about the CR, but I believe until recently there has always been some small amount of productive discussion along with some variety in the viewpoints shared. However, now i'm afraid it truly has become the unrelenting, hysterical circle-jerk of which it so often has been accused. It is nigh impossible to post in the forum without sharing the pedestrian "socially liberal but economically conservative" viewpoint shared by the CR postariat. To do so, irrespective of your own beliefs or positions, is to brand yourself a "fascist" or even a "Nazi supporter" resulting in your eventual crowd-source banning. There is as much use reasoning with these people as there is reasoning with a stampede of feral hogs. What is to be done with this place? Why even allow negging in the CR when it's used wantonly to ban anyone with a different viewpoint, no matter what that viewpoint is?
  10. There are plenty of shithead cops, but i dont think their personal failings are to blame for the harms they cause and essentializing them, like essentializing any group, is counterproductive even if they are a self-selected group.
  11. lol this must be the shitlib version of the conservative's shibboleth of welfare queens and "strapping young bucks" living off of a diet of T-Bone steaks.
  12. No, please explain how a war would arise because of a some congress critter being taken hostage. Some deluded idiot zip-tying Pelosi is going to make the Joint Chiefs consider backing Trump against our President Elect? What exactly are you envisioning?
  13. Why would a war start over some wingnut grabbing a hold of a congressman because the police didn't bother doing their jobs? I'm missing something.
