If what is currently going on in Washington happened in South America or Africa or Asia, we would be talking of a failed state...democracy dying....rule of anarchy. This is just totally shameful and any morale high groud the US still has (or had) remaining has been totally swept away.

Nah it just means the mask is coming off and the police are complicit in all of this.

You saw the same protests in the summer that everyone else did surely? BLM were allowed to protest even in the midst of the pandemic. Antifa were permitted to set up autonomous zones in Seattle. And today I’ve seen the police beating the shit out of people protesting so I really don’t see what point you’re trying to make.

BLM was a protest. Breaking into a government building to attempt a coup is not a protest. Planting bombs is terrorism. That is the big difference.

The fact that the police literally removed barriers to allow them to waltz in is the point I'm making. The fact that the police are taking selfies and high fiving these intruders is the point I'm making. This is not a protest.

I’m not arguing in favour of this, so I’ll ask you again, don’t jump down my throat and put words into my mouth. My point is - where’s the white privilege? Fuck has that got to do with anything? These protestors aren’t getting anymore special treatment compared to anyone else. Sounds like flashy buzzwords to me.

They tried to burn a church and got their arses handed to them. So what?

I’ll ask again Cos I’m really struggling to make it any clearer - where is the white privilege on display today? I’m not disputing that it’s abhorrent. I want an explanation as to where the white privilege is. I don’t even care if it’s from you, the original poster would be better.

They are intentionally trying to get a rise out of the security,police etc..

Trying to get them to react with force once that happens then all hell will break loose.

The best thing security services can do is be calm and don't overreact.

Bringing BLM into the equation is just stirring the pot even more.

Let's hope and pray it just taper's off and the crowd scatters.

However it seems well organized and they are waiting until a reaction from security services to escalate??

Let's be honest. If the protestors weren't white. A lot of them would just have been shot.

The white privilege on display, is them not being shot.

Personally I'm in favour of no protestors being shot.

But to deny that the US has a recent history of treating black protesters and white protesters differently, is simply ignoring the facts.

Compare the way the police are dealing with today.... and the incident when trump supporters took over the state capitol building in Michigan.

The compare that with the way trump cleared the streets in Washington of peaceful BLM protesters for his church photo op.....

THATS why people talk about white privilege

‘Peaceful’

"White privilege in action here. No one can say white privilege does not exist after today.

.....wha?

Erm, the police have allowed a group of predomonantly white MAGA terrorists simply march into a government building. Heck, even some are enjoying this.

Their response to this is very tame compared to anything else in the past 12 months.

This is an attempted coup to overturn election results. There's no equivalence and antifascism is an ideology not an organisation.

Let's be honest. If the protestors weren't white. A lot of them would just have been shot.

The white privilege on display, is them not being shot.

Personally I'm in favour of no protestors being shot.

But to deny that the US has a recent history of treating black protesters and white protesters differently, is simply ignoring the facts."

Yes, BLM got away with protesting in the middle of a global pandemic. Let’s not ignore that fact yeah?

Sure. Not a good time to protest.

The point is the police reaction was much more heavy handed with BLM protesters, who were in comparison to today's protesters. More peaceful.

Was it really more peaceful? I’ve seen plenty of videos already of the police kicking fuck out of people today. I saw very little force being used in the summer. It’s why it dragged on so long.

Why is the automatic assumption that police will always use lethal force against people? You clearly don’t know a thing about use of force. They don’t just shoot people, even if they’re breaking into a building. But this is going off on a tangent - what if’s and speculation. You can believe that BLM protestors would’ve been shot by police if they broke into federal buildings if you want. I disagree.

To my eyes the difference in treatment of the sets of protesters appears to be based on skin colour or political leaning.

I suspect this was a grandiose scheme to paint one side as peaceful demonstrators. Hence the lack of law enforcement on the ground.

Only the base instincts took over and they couldn’t help themselves.

Someone mentions BLM or Antifa riots you are automatically accused of having white privilege. Does antifa have the right to terrorize people to get a point across ? This was a assault on the very same people on both sides that created this the capitol. Portland still going through riots yet nothing substantial is done. What better way to send a message than to take it to the house.

In fairness, it's not been " non stop" in Portland, and people are constantly talking about it.

I was in Portland for 60 days about 18 months ago. Was perfectly fine.
