Why ? Quite a few of the people, like the one sitting in Pelosis chair, were identified and were quite empathically not antifa.

lol why

I fail to see how your proposals have any good.

The constitution gives too much freedom for extremists to gather and propagate as well as arm themselves

Amazing. You didn't respond to a single thing I said. *Maybe* the second bit but that's dubious at best.

I mean, there is a significant difference between 'Yes these people were traitors but we got over it and came back together as a nation.'

And

'Confederate scum, that flag is treason.'

I mean those who fly those flags are clearly doing to glorify to Confederates so I think giving them shit is very sensible.

That's very concerning.

Not really. Someone built and put a guillotine on Virginia's state capital lawn not too long ago.

Yes, as we all know, logic and rationality are the main forces driving the *checks notes* armed mobs overrunning the Capitol

Yes? As evidenced by Lee's total surrender and refusal to entertain the idea of Guerilla war.

No.

Just.

No.

Stop.

I decided not to continue the conversation after that. I don't really like getting into politics with my mom.

But I imagine there'll be a point where it'll be easier to talk about.

I think guillotines are an anti authoritarian symbol not a leftist one because the Romanian Revolutionaries and the Venezuelan Resistance use that symbolism as well.

People trying to install Trump as dictator shouldn't be using anti-authoritarian symbols either.
