i would've said the same thing about the jan 6th coup attempt but here we are - Hacker News
The article discusses skepticism toward claims of good faith regarding the January 6th Capitol riot, with the author questioning the emphasis on Trump's call for peaceful protest amid the violence. They also criticize Trump's subsequent pardons for some rioters, highlighting a disconnect between his initial message and actions afterward. The commentary emphasizes concerns about differing perceptions and realities surrounding the events.
The one where he specifically told people to protest peacefully?
I know the rules say to assume good faith but I don't see how anyone can do that given what you wrote. I'm really struggling to understand how that is your main takeaway from all the events that transpired that day.
But rather than rehash that maybe it's better to focus on current events. What are your thoughts on Trump, the first day assuming office in his second term, issuing a blanket pardon for all of the crimes his supporters committed that day in his name? Why would Trump who just wanted people to "protest peacefully," pardon those convicted of... beating officers with a flag pole, stomping on officers' heads, and crushing an officer in a metal door frame using a riot shield?
I do agree with you on one thing though:
it's like they're living in another world
It truly saddens me to see so many people living in completely different realities. But I honestly don't think it's me or the person you're replying to that decided to relocate.
