Reply to comment by [deleted] in There is no compromise with election deniers. And that’s the problem. by Sinman1982

The riot happened because a candidate who built his entire candidacy on a personality cult lost an election. Bigger riots happen every year here in the US when sports teams lose games. This is an issue of how people act with personality and brand cults, not of election validity. And that's not even getting into the fact of how the government security did not take their jobs seriously.

>Beliefs often result in actions. Actions have effects and consequences.

The Jan 6 riot has literally no effect on whether or not an old lady and the rest of her bingo-night crew, who are actually filing and sorting elections, do their job properly. This fundamental lack of understanding in how elections work is why the Washington Post is trying to make money off of you. You are easily susceptible to propaganda.

Again, please, don't be a moron that's easily propagandized. You are literally acting the same way that election deniers act.

There's nothing bad about admitting you were in the wrong.

Some self-reflection may be in order, here.

I've done plenty. It's why I don't get riled by corporate opinion pieces slathered on reddit. How about you though? Do you chase the highs of ego by spouting off about much much you hate [group of people a company is making money off of you hating]? Because /u/TheUnsightlyLocks over there does- not realizing that the OP of this post is a bought account.
