Were they thousands of Trump supporters there who were honest protester? Of course there were. Were there hundreds of Trump supporters/protesters who became a mob and stormed the Capitol? Yes with out a doubt. Could there have been some type of infiltrator? I guess, but so far no evidence, other than anecdotal, supports that. All of the people who stormed the Capitol who have been identified so far are Trump supporters. Every single one.
And if they were lead astray by AntiFa plants, boy were they like sheep. Did you hear any comments about standing back, about not entering the Capitol? That what they were doing was wrong? Of course not. Trump had just basically told them what to do. Just like Guliani. Trial by Combat.
You don't understand it only takes one questionable identification with some other questionable shadow conspiracy to, if not validate the actions of the followers, at least excuses them. The devil made me do it. I was following one devil but got confused by another. Not my fault.
Anyway you can't blame Trump followers for following that's what followers do. Not their fault if the are easy led and don't pay much attention to who or what they are following. The ends justify the means and who has time to verify the method or information they lap up?
Facts are for kids, silly rabbit.
Fenring argues that the problem is the system that has undermined our ability to discern what is true. We can't blame Trump or hold him accountable because he's just a symptom of that problem. Even if he manipulated and feeds the problem like some cancer he is only a symptom and their is no point in holding him accountable and cutting out the cancer. As for his followers, they are just followers of the symptom of the problem. Nothing can be done here other then shake our heads and frown at the problem of our inability to discern fact from fiction.
The followers feed the symptom, but not their fault. If they get it wrong it must be conspiracy, one they are to smart to fall for, except for the ones they fall for.
