    Seriously, Trumps solution to a fire is to add fuel. Every time. COVID? Stop testing. Protests? Send in unmarked federal troops. Riots? Encourage out of state supporters to counter riot.

    Our resident "conservatives" will cheer on more shooting of protestors that they can claim are in "self-defense"

    See a hippy, shoot a hippy is the new way to MAGA

    What is the ultimate aim of bring guns to a protest? To protect statues or to shoot people? More bloodshed the better. Most of these gun nuts have been dreaming of the day a race war would start and they can final go a shooting without any kind of self-restraint.

    It wouldn't shock me if the death in Portland was a MAGA on MAGA crime.

    As anyone who has dealt with children know, the “he/she started it!” excuse doesn’t really fly.

    Yes, he's super big into violence-p*rn. That's pretty obvious.

    Not to bring logic into a horrific thread like this, but: neuroscience has now documented, with repeatable experiments, the phenomenon of motivated perception. If a human being stands to benefit their world view, and especially a tribal view, with a certain perception, the brain is primed to see it or hear it, and statistically, they really can perceive things that are not in reality correct.

    Keep an eye out for the this phenomenon. It is also proven to get worse with perceived stakes. So yeah, I believe our dagger friend, who leans fairly reasonable compared to someone prone to violence pron like the OP, really does hear "trumper" in the audio. That has little bearing, unfortunately, as to whether a good audio analysis of the clip would verify that.

    Our species was not built for this moment and definitely not this president, unless you like fear and violence anyway. Congrats, OP.

    I think the word is "telling." If you can credit Trump with anything, it's shining a bright light on some of our fellow citizens and what their souls truly contain. Disturbing, but it's important for the let's-hug-it-out part of the left to see it clearly. If and when Trump is out of office, the cretins aren't going to magically become nice people.

    What a sick response.
    And exactly what Trump is trying to incite before November.

    Trump and Trumpsters trying to take a page out of the classic fascist playbook-- create chaos in the streets and than argue that you need a strong man to restore order. Must distract from cluster**** of their Covid 19 response and other blunders.

    What happened with Reddit and the Boston Marathon bombing?
    www.reddit.com › OutOfTheLoop › comments › what_...
    No, that's wrong. What happened was that the circlejerk over the "suspect" was in full swing, and at some point somebody claimed to have heard his name mentioned on a scanner. But nobody is clear on exactly who heard that, there's no recording, and even if the name was mentioned it's entirely possible that the mention came as a result of worthless tips flooding into the investigators from Redditors, who then heard their own bullshit fed back to them as "confirmation."

    You've already heard about the witchhunt and the suicide victim they wrongly identified as a terrorist, but there's something people are missing.

    The manhunt, death of an MIT campus police officer, bomb-throwing and shootouts on city streets, city wide lockdown and siege (costing billions of dollars in economic damage and god knows what psychic impacts) may well have been caused in part by Reddit.

    That all happened because the FBI released photos of "Suspect 1" and "Suspect 2," provoking the Tsarnaev brothers to pack up and attempt to flee the city; and the comments made when those photos were released strongly suggest that vigilantism and waste of police resources on meaningless "tips" were a strong motivation for the FBI to tip their hand. Further confirmation comes from unnamed police sources in this Washington Post piece, which specifically names Reddit.

    It may not be much of an exaggeration to say that those idiots on r/FindBostonBombers didn't just harass, disturb, and horribly slander people but actually have blood on their hands.

    See also two r/TheoryOfReddit posts here and here.
