175 sats \ 2 replies \ @kepford 24 Jun \ on: January 6 Emboldened DHS to Expand Monitoring of Americans news
I remember talking to my wife on that day saying this is not going to have the outcome these people protesting think it will. They were never a threat to anyone except themselves and the freedom of the people. Not because they did something wrong but rather because they played right into the hands of evil people. They were useful fools. Many were left hanging out to dry. Trump didn't have their back. They were painted as extremists while many other people protesting for different causes were painted as heroes. The whole episode is so absurd to me.
There are people that believe that there were feds among the protestors. I find this highly plausible but honestly regardless of the truth of that specific thing the state ALWAYS uses events like this to expand its power. There is a long history of this.
As someone that has paid attention to politics and the relationship of the state and the people since the 80s I think many people get far to caught up in arguing about if something was a false flag or something was an inside job or there were feds in the groups. Regardless of the specifics for an event the pattern is there. It is replayed over and over again. IMO the more important thing is to realize the game that is being played and pick where you engage. It just seems like far to many people get caught up in the conspiracies and the specifics of their theories. Don't get me wrong. I think there is value in the many documentaries pointing out the patterns. But at a certain point you just know what is going on. Then what? Then what?
I choose not to play. Maybe that's the wrong approach but its what I've come around to.
