Technically, he did not make a death threat, but it is still far more of a threat than Trump’s supposed “incitement” to violence tweet… Or calling the events at the Capitol an “insurrection” or worse “terrorism” which is how WW_III_ANGRY angrily labels it.
You have to be under a spell of some sort if you legitimately think what happened at the Capitol “nearly rivals” 9/11. It’s such an absurd statement that the person making it has to either be delusional or deliberately trying to provoke the other side.
In all fairness, WWIII does the same thing by demonizing everyone he doesn’t agree with as a “fascist.” It is sort of amusing watching Urwong and WWIII rage against one another though from entrenched positions of good and evil… when they should be raging against you! (that is if they are truly morally outraged)… Urwrong is hardly a scary “fascist” and WWII is hardly a scary “communist” whereas you are a dastardly immoralist of the first rank lol
Mr Reasonable is a friend to no-one, he only cares about himself and his own hedonistic lifestyle, greed, consumption, or overall gluttony.
He says he’s a democrat even though he has publicly stated numerous time he hates poor people, he’s the kind of guy that plays all sides so long as it benefits himself in the end. That’s all you need to know.
Still, he’s the closest thing you’ll get to honesty from a democrat, he’s a much more accurate political nihilist than Iambiguous could ever hope to be, and that’s not saying very much. He’s basically a turbo capitalist and nihilist who’s a democrat in name or title only.
Bit odd that you’d post this in this thread and not in the Reckoning one… Anyway, is it really more of a threat? Other things being equal, isn’t a threat coming from the President of the United States far greater than one coming from an anonymous message board poster?..
And sure, Trump may not have explicitly incited people to violence, but he’s certainly been doing so implicitly for a long time, riding the wave that clearly got out of hand on January 6th. On that day, it was no longer a storm in a teacup, the hot tea spilled over… So yes, a petty insurrection and, as such, petty terrorism! I’m reminded of John Oliver’s term, “stupid Watergate”…
Trump has implicitly condoned angry mobs like QAnon and the Proud Boys—and the Capitol rioters are very much like those, basically his brownshirts… Trump is no Hitler though, just an opportunist. Which is actually worse in my book.

I think it’s just hyperbole, man… It was a violent fascist insurrection, just a petty one! And it’s comparable to 9/11, unlike anything in between I think, in that America itself was under attack that day.
I think WWIII is hardly delusional, but he is trying to provoke the other side, yes; however, they provoked him, first. I think he’s simply calling them out, accepting the confrontation, picking up the gauntlet…

Your ribbing me is appreciated. I strongly disagree with your attempt to equate Urwrong and WWIII, though. WWIII is not one of the those far-lefties to whom everyone else is a fascist. Urwrong, on the other hand, is entirely reminiscent of this hysterical fanatic:
Let the record reflect that smears, Zeroeth Nature, dorkydood, lambiguous, Kropotkin, perpetual burn, all support and defend these Far-Left terrorists and traitors.
This is standard operating procedure for Antifa and other Left-wing terrorist organizations. It wouldn’t surprise me if these on this forum are directly involved in such domestic terrorism.
But now they want to bring it into a Philosophy discussion. This proves how low, disgusting, inhuman these types are. It also proves their betrayal, terror, and treason.
K: ah man, I thought I was the “worst of the bunch”. I even put out Christmas cards
claiming I was the “worst of the bunch”… shit… I wonder if I can get a refund?
That is a great compliment coming from you. After all, to me
