    There is a huge difference between what is being protested against, and people died in Bloody Sunday.
    You trivialised those deaths to make a point, which is a shameful thing to do and anyone thanking you should be thinking about what that means.

    I haven't trivialised anything, just pointed out your absolute hypocrisy when it comes to excessive force by the authorities.

    At least you've owned up to it.

    It was relevant to the discussion at hand.

    Is that ok?

    No, it isn’t ok. It has zero relevance because it meant nothing. Unless you think it means something, which was why I asked.

    Don't worry, you'll be ok. There never seems to be an end to the boot licking police brutality apologists to balance things out :rolleyes:

    Government welfare money is used to buy the boots. Unemployable bunch of losers

    You know the average income of left wing voters is higher than right wing voters in the US? They are also better educated on average.

    I feel you're projecting something here because of a sense of inferiority.

    What passes for left wing politics in the US is essentially elite driven politics so the correlation with wealth is hardly surprising.

    Are you saying that the average left wing voter dresses in black, covers their face and waves the communist flag?
    Ie the average left wing voter is part of antifa.

    And what does a better education mean in this day and age? There's thousands of genders, Feeling should trump facts. Socialism is better than Capitalism despite never working where ever its implemented. Gender is determined by feelings.

    Despite how Antifa has you hiding under your bed, there are many more average left wing voters at these protests than there are Antifa.

    People who hold post graduate degrees, like myself, are overwhelmingly left wing in their voting patterns.

    That includes all disciplines such as engineering, science, business and the humanities.

    Awkward for you but that picture is directly from the Seattle PD website, where they claimed it was 'Abrasion caused by explosive device'. It only takes a second to fact check something to save yourself some embarrassment.

    Yep.

    The elite tend to be more left wing.

    I know you’re using “elite” as a pejorative, I’ve seen it done before, but I don’t see a problem with being elite.

    Did you ignore the various other injuries sustained in your link or just the one where the twitter expert has his opinion on an injury.

    No switcharoo. Both are more likely higher educated and more affluent than you.

    Clear?

    Highly unlikely. Do you like doritos and role play games?

    No. I’m saying you’re calling people unemployable who are probably more educated and affluent than you.

    Antifa definitely have some liberal arts degree holders in their ranks, and people that come from affluent families. But in themselves, the 'thanks and likes' left are often affluent academics with guilt about their affluence. The 'throw bottles and smash capitalism' left like antifa either squandered what they were given, never tried or are going home to a life paid for by the exact system they try to smash.

    No I didn't, I just pointed out how the cops clearly lied in 1 out of 3 'injuries' they claimed.

    Embarrassing performance from Barr responding being called out for the selective federal government excessive force being used against protesters only on certain issues, ones that dont align with Trump. He'd fit in well with the mindset of some here.

    I think if you paused for a second, rather than becoming triggered and ranting about off topic nonsense, the answer would be pretty straight forward (i.e., how far they've gotten in the education system)

    There's only 2 Genders and the rest in mental illness.

    Another poster projecting based on their own insecurities.

    I really do think it’s fascinating how often the intelligence of protesters is questioned by people who display very few signs of intelligence themselves. I think it’s something to do with simple minds seeking for simplicity, it’s so much easier to stereotype and insult than attempt to understand.

    A number of posters seem to have forgotten the "don't be a dick" rule and seem to want to attack other posters. Thread closed for a tidy-up

    Some posts actioned, a lot more deleted, and anyone continuing this back and forth attacking of other posters can expect further sanctions. Equally if you continue to show yourselves incapable of civil debate the thread may be closed permanently
