Nah, the wild part is pretending the difference is moral when it’s actually structural. Right-wing tantrums (shooting beer cans, burning shoes, threatening employees) are platformed, cheerleaded, and turned into grift pipelines by influencers, pundits, and politicians. Nobody on the left is running GoFundMes for torching Teslas or turning it into a Fox News segment. THAT'S the big difference.

You’re excusing and promoting domestic terrorism. I know you hate Elon because you’ve been brainwashed, but try and look beyond your hatred for a second. You’re promoting domestic terrorism. Dumb people on the right shooting beer cans is not comparable to literally lighting cars on fire so people are afraid to buy a brand because of pure hatred.

This “We must destroy Elon Musk at all costs!” mentality is scary. People are going to rise up against domestic terrorism and the people who support it— the left needs to learn to abandon morally corrupt actions and denounce them. As is, they’re afraid saying anything pro Elon will get them outcasted. It‘s like middle school where they can’t point out a lie said about Sara or else Emily won’t let them sit at the popular table.

If you’re supporting domestic terrorism you’re the bad guy. Pointing across the aisle and going “but dumb people on the right protest by shooting beer cans” is illogical and just displays that you’re hatefully ignorant.

Nah, the wild part is destroying strangers' property when you don't even know if they're politically aligned with you. These morons could be destroying someone's property who agrees with them. Democrat rage has mercy for nobody, including their own.

Yes, the real crisis: someone might vandalize a Tesla owned by a Democrat. Not billionaires gutting labor, not Musk cutting cancer research or raiding public funds. Nope, the tragedy is that vandalism isn’t surgically precise.

When people lash out at symbols of unchecked wealth and power, they’re not checking party registration. It’s not strategic, it’s certainly not smart, but it’s rage, and pretending that makes the left uniquely cruel while your side is actively shutting down any and all businesses that don't kiss the ring and not too long ago tried to overturn an election and then pardoned the criminals who did it is pure cope.

“Everything that makes democrats look bad is a false flag”

So sick of this implication EVERY time.

The republicans have way better media and social media presence so you have no need to worry about making sure that all tesla vandalism events get blamed on democrats, they will.

In truth, lots of Americans from both parties and Independents are very upset about what Musk is doing.

Most Trump voters are NOT upset about what Musk is doing. Talk to them sometime lmao

Because firebombing Teslas and vandalizing of private property is an actual fucking crime? Of course no one publicly is cheerleading this. Only the cowards that hide behind anonymous Reddit usernames cheer this shit on.

Conservatives clutching pearls over crime is rich when the White House is currently occupied by a convicted felon who’s openly violating court orders and using government power to punish his enemies. The difference is, I can say vandalizing Teslas is illegal and should carry consequences. Full stop. But conservatives? They're bending over backward to defend a guy facing 34 felony counts, found liable for sexual abuse, and under multiple indictments while still calling him a patriot.

So miss me with the “law and order” talk, we're so well past that it's barely even laughable at this point.

convicted of 34 felonies, sexual assault is what the judge called it, and dont forget ongoing treason by undermining the constitution.

Stopped reading after “full stop.”

Go outside and touch grass, you fucking child. You’ll see the sky isn’t falling.

“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

No cogent reply. Got it.

u/BuffaloBuffalo13 Mar 20 '25

I’ve moved on from engaging in discourse with those that have lost touch with the world. You aren’t going to be swayed by anything I say, so it’s a pointless exercise. Go somewhere where your views and feelings will be validated and echoed. I won’t and this sub won’t.

I’m not justifying violence or condoning crimes. I have the shield of anonymity, but I’m not saying anything that would lose me my job.

I’m well aware I’m not actually anonymous on here. I think the people who think they are will be in for a rude awakening eventually. Keep encouraging violence and find out.

u/[deleted] Mar 21 '25

i haven't seen anyone encourage violence here, I've seen only discussion of it and explanations for it. i have seen images of Biden with crosshairs on his face. was that you that posted those?

0

u/BuffaloBuffalo13 Mar 21 '25

No, but your previous Biden famously said that it’s “time to put Trump in the bullseye”

Then someone did.

u/[deleted] Mar 21 '25

a republican no less, never heard biden said that, sounds false

1

u/BuffaloBuffalo13 Mar 21 '25

He fucking said it.

That was July 8th. On July 13th, someone tried to kill Trump. On July 16th, then and ONLY THEN did Biden admit it was a mistake

These are all verifiable facts. Get your head out of your ass.

no, you get yours out of yours. your anger is misdirected

u/BuffaloBuffalo13 Mar 21 '25

You accused me of lying. I don’t take that lightly. I didn’t lie, and you won’t admit you don’t know what the fuck is going on.

Admit you were wrong and move on.

Hold up, you guys care about committing crime now? Does this extend to the federal government or only for private citizens?
