It seems people will do absolutely anything except take their anger out on people who might deserve it.

Beat your wife and kids? OK

Run over brown people with your truck? Terrific idea

Shoot your boss? What, never

Well, I know why, it’s because the media rallies themselves to get you all riled up about the gays and the browns, so your rage won’t have any consequence

They do the same with Islamic extremists in eg Pakistan, funnel people into stupid fundamentalist orgs so they won’t look into Marxism, and bonus points, the extremist orgs you’re propping up will even hunt communists themselves, the same way conservatives in the US despise anything socialist (in the UK we don’t know what communists are, we just hate scroungers, trans and immigrints 😡)

Kind of following up from my post the other day about CEO salaries, still thinking about it, I honestly don’t get how senior management are able to kid themselves when they only earn £200k themselves, real serf behaviour

    There have been few incidents of left wing terror in the US. Half of it was failed bombings, the other half was FBI infiltration and manipulation. Unfortunately this was during the hippie era so everyone was bro dude groovy. Though there are good hippies in that era too, but they didn’t commit “terrorism” as we describe today.

    In modern times, there was the 60 year old Bernie Bro who attempted to shoot up a congressional baseball game attended by republicans (and I think some democrats). But the thing is he was not very rational, as others have pointed out with most mass shooters, so he bought a… fucking SKS. If you don’t know what that is, it’s a semi auto rifle used by the Soviets by the end of WWII. Now, a stupid person with a gun is still lethal, but surely one could make a better purchase in a country where they hand out guns like candy.
