So much doubt peddling, and disinformation spewed on these types of posts is astounding. I think we should permanently flag topics like these as they lead to repeated circular arguments about whether or not jan 6 was a big deal or if burning down a planned parenthood constitutes terrorism, everything is fine domestically, all terrorists are outside (or not fine, depending on which TV station your mind is plugged into), BLM AntifaCommunists China HunterBiden and other stupid bullshit.
I find it so stupid that the people of a country with one of the most oppressive law enforcement legislations on the planet is getting triggered by a bureaucratic change because a 'protest went out of hand'. You have a problem with this? Go out and vote, write to your representative, run for office. Where the fuck were you when the Patriot Act passed?
