Stay safe and stay warm today, Sooner Nation! ❄️

What frustrates me about a lot of right wingers is their dishonesty. They have to lie to me because they are also lying to themselves. They will claim that they are always against destruction of property or violent protests, on principle, yet they’ll claim that the January 6 riot is a different, special case. I just want you to be honest with me. You don’t oppose violent protests; you sometimes oppose WHO does them and what causes they stand for. You cannot have a rational discussion with someone who cannot accept the truth. The thing is, leftists are honest about this! They say that violent resistance is okay against things that they deem bad enough, like fascism, but then they are looked down upon by right wingers. These guys genuinely believe that leftists have political opinions on “feelings” rather than fact, and they don’t realize that they are doing the same thing. Your basis on whether or not a violent protest is acceptable is based on whether or not you agree with the ideas, so stop virtue signaling as if you always care about the destruction of property, if you can’t be logically consistent. Just be honest with me! Until you start being serious, I cannot take you seriously. The reality is, that most of us have a threshold in which we think acts of violent resistance against the state are warranted, but we have different beliefs and different thresholds. That subset of MAGA is fine with riots as long as it’s something they believe in, just like leftists. But they want to pretend like it’s their principle to always oppose violence. They want to make it seem like everything they do is governed by logic, so that they can condescendingly look down on leftists, but they are not being honest with us—or with themselves.
