        I still haven't figured how liberals acting like primates is supposed to make us hate Trump.

          The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

            Primates show more restraint than that crowd.

              It's not. They don't much care how we feel inside as long as we're cowed into doing what they want.

                How long before they figure out that this doesn't work? Trump's success during the campaign and his subsequent transition was driven in part by impotent protests like these.

                    I had the day off, since my workplace was on the edge of the high security zone.

                      My priest observed that progressivism is advanced with religious fervor. I'm not sure if they're willing to change their ways even if it's not working.

                        So you didn't go out in the crowds? Breaking windows and burning limousines?

                          Notice it is also when someone on his side is doing the violence that causes his amusement.

                            That would take too much effort.

                              Pacifist/conscious objector with regard to war. I am fine with violence as a tool of political protest, though observe that it is not usually as effective as non-violent political protest, as I have previously discussed with CP.
                              "I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump
                              "Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic socialism" - George Orwell
                              "[Capitalism] as it exists today is, in my opinion, the real source of evils. I am convinced there is only one way to eliminate these grave evils, namely through the establishment of a socialist economy" - Albert Einstein

                                Yes, I remember you expressing that amazingly inconsistent position.
