Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading)

Again, the inferred meaning of fight in these contexts means violence and also profiles the standard Trump supporter, who it sounds like you think would raise fists at each and every opportunity just with the words written.
In actuality, the comments can mean varying different things, and the inference here is that Trump is inferring violence.
For the most part, I find myself restating my position here. I am ambivalent, I really don't see the difference between praising one, and condemning the other. Either you do both, or you do neither. I see the commentary, and I hear the propaganda, and I laugh at the juxtaposition that people hold when commenating about all these things. Trump should have conceded fair and square, he hasnt, and for the most part, I support his right to question whether or not the outcome was fair and ask for recount etc. I would state the same for any other person in the same position because I am detached from the person. Likewise, Twitter, Facebook etc. If someone writes something on these social media platforms, they shouldnt be silenced. That is not the society I want to live in. An enlightened mind will entertain an idea without accepting it.
BLM had a bunch of people fighting for their rights to protest, fighting for their rights to be heard and stand up for their human rights. Some did so violently, others did so peacefully, but all had the same goal. They were simply fighting for their rights, no?
I hear varying degrees of the same sort of vitriol coming from people saying "its different this time" as I always do, which is the irony and hypocrisy I am pointing to.
I bet you, that the majority of respondents here are painting me as a Trump supporter. I am not. I don't really care, I choose my position to keep the bastards honest, as per a previous Aussie PM.
But not in that context Thry.
An audience of Proud Boys and other militant right wingers, many armed, some with explosives and most spoiling for a fight.
And then there’s the body language of the POTUS and the other speakers. Watch the videos.
The POTUS has been building this up since before the election. He was determined to hang on to power and knew that his MAGA base and other disaffected nutters would do his bidding, and do his bidding they did.
I know that you’re not a Trump supporter Thry; you’re too smart for that. But you can be contrary at times 😇
