They are no better than the far left progressives who spread plenty of hate, discontent and destruction the majority of 2020. They both 'represent' the right and left respectively, and are both responsible for hijacking those parties and the people of this country are so wrapped up in their own biases they don't see what's happening. And the media are stiring the pot to fuel it all.

Congratulations to all of you who don't see it for what it is as evident by this thread.

The far left had their year in 2020.  I'm hoping the far right doesn't take the ousting of Trump and whatever he said at his speech as a green light to continue the stupidity we saw happen last night. There was absolutely ZERO reason to breach the Capitol building. None.

And Trump needs to shut his damn mouth. it's over. No one is listening. I'm not one for censorship but I heard his Twitter account was suspended and it definitely needed to be done. The damage done last night was enough, and I'm not talking just what happened last night, but the ripple affect it's going to have here in the US just as the riots and such of 2020 have continued to affect the country.

Both parties need to regroup and denounce far left and far right groups and their chaos.

He can just get on Parler and Rumble. Conservative created sites that support free speech. 

Look, I am not defending everything Trump did yesterday but we either have the 1st amendment or we don't. There are thousands of bad actors on social media that are never censored. Zuck just opened a can of worms that can't be put back in...

As far as both parties, I think its a viable time for a 3rd party to establish themselves.
