Back to the topic of the thread:
An interesting point that people seem to be missing about yesterday’s events: the same political tactics that were used during the BLM riots (allowing them to go on without police intervention) were used in the nation’s capital to showcase the logical end-game of a lack of law and order.
Were the stakes significantly higher for this one? Yes, of course they were, and that’s the point. The takeaway of yesterday’s events is “here is a glimpse of the worst thing that can possibly happen when you don’t have law and order”. And what’s more, it puts the left in a jam. If they say that the lack of action to stop these criminals from breaking into the capitol building was a political tactic, then they are admitting that they did the same things themselves with the BLM riots. They’re saying that they allowed unrest and violence as a means to advance a political agenda. It’s quite the chess move.
