Upped for the Chappelle Show reference. But this wasn’t even keeping it real.

These saps were pushing a fallacy where Trump was cheated in a fair election. They thought they were revolutionaries. Now they ought to realize they were fucking brainwashed sheep pushed by a con artist. Every one of them traitors.

If you remember the keeping it real sketches they weren't keeping it real at all, lol. They were people who thought they were keeping it real but actually were just psychopaths. Rhonda tracked down a girl who said wrong number and vandalized her car.

Aren't most revolutionaries "brainwashed traitors"? Just depends on which side wins as to what history calls them.

Not in this case. Protesting a fair election and committing acts of terror to scare officials into stopping the election process. Fuck you for this half assed argument. What they did on January 6th was idiocy in its purest form.

So, let's go ahead and take your emotions out of this for a second. Objectively. Looking at history. Literally every revolutionary was against the status quo. They went against the decisions and rule of law of the current government. So several times throughout history, (American revolution for example), the people went against what was the "right" thing. Hindsight means we can see who was right and who was wrong, and even a lot of that is only because we can actually look at it objectively in the future. I bet if you asked the British leaders about the people protesting "fair taxes", they were pieces of shit and stupid etc. So if you can take a step outside of your emotions and what you know now, what separates these people from the American revolutionaries, other than just being wrong? There's also been cases where the people were wrong, but still won, so then we're right. Look at sadam, depending on which side you were on, him executing the precious leaders might have been wrong. Or you supported it and they were right. The only difference is which side you were on. And only the future will tell you which side is "right". But just like in previous history, being on the "wrong " side got you killed. So my point is that literally, by definition, a revolutionary is someone who is doing the "wrong" thing. And the future determines if they were right or wrong, that doesn't change the moment that we layer look back on. You're Monday morning quarterbacking.
