Comment on BBC documentary used face-swapping AI to hide protesters' identitiesparent

If you look at the J6 convictions it is for far more than trespassing. Interrupting the electoral college count turns out to be a pretty big deal.

China, North Korea, and Iran also have excuses for how they treat their dissidents.

This is more than just dissent, though. I don’t think there’s a country in the world which wouldn’t criminalize active interference with its political process.

Not many people heard about the sitch in Phoenix after the Dobbs decision, but security forces found it necessary to barricade the State Capitol with concrete walls as pro-abortion protesters began to plot and lay siege to the Legislature inside.

That battle hasn't ended, either; it's been taken to the Crisis Pregnancy Centers, but I simply remind people: if you're up-in-arms about J6, insurrection is a two-way street and knows no Right nor Left.
