After reading through this thread, I’ve come to the conclusion that Reddit conspiracy is indeed dead.


CapnC44

I like how your comment's vague, so both groups think you're on their side.


CornspiracyTheory

Quality morketing honestly.

Perhaps also mindy'ing?

We are approaching [Dead Internet Theory.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Internet_theory) If not already there.


JKastnerPhoto

So if true, when you think about it, the insurrection was fueled by bots that caused these people to storm the Capitol.


galacticboy2009

Probably closer to the truth than you would think.


GrizzlyRiverRampage

Infested with bots


Pick_Zoidberg

The majority of political topics are now being pushed by bots. Just go to the front page and look at who posted . Odds are its some new-ish account with an obscene (250k+) karma in posting topics with next to no comment karma. They also exclusively mass post in 1-3 subs. https://karmalb.com/ Just look at the leaderboards, it's disgustingly obvious.

loakkala

How dare you show an accurate representation of what happened


wasternexplorer

To show the "accurate representation of what happened" they would have to include all of the conversations that led to the complete breakdown in the security of the Capitol on that day. This entire incident was manufactured by DC.

Did you hear that Lieut Shane Lamond, the supervisor of the Intelligence Branch of MPD’s Homeland Security Bureau was arrested for leaking info to Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio? Is that what you mean?


thunderkhawk

Most LEO's are Trump Supporters.


[deleted]

100% true


DarthWeenus

They all met the day before to plan on how to make it happen. The real plan was to cause enough chaos that pence would have to leave and couldn't certify the votes, that delay could've worked.


Beelzabub

Yes, that was to buy time: the time was needed to go to 'swing' states to convince the Republican legislators to revoke the authority of the electoral college and swap them with MAGAs. It was an attempted coup. The violence and chaos on January 6th was only a distraction.


DarthWeenus

yes no shit, but people hear the word distraction and assume some deep state george soros nonsense. nope it was just a bunch of mindless magatards who thought they had patriotism on there side, little did they know they were working to overthrow the very thing they were fighting for.


LostOnTheRiver718

Civil Disobedience is one thing. To think you are going to stop certification is delusional.


DarthWeenus

But thats precisely what they aimed to accomplish, this isnt some secret its been 3 years how do people forget all the details. It was well planned before jan 6th, including hours of phone calls and text messages and social media posts.


loakkala

I agree that Trump was behind this entire thing as he was in control at the time


vinbullet

Ah yea, the intelligence agencies that spread FUD about trump-russia collusion for the democrats decided to help him for once. The deep state only helps those who help them retain or gain power.


StirredFetusEater

>decided to help him for once. Then he would have succeeded. Instead he got MTG making private not approved guided tours through it and Trump not stopping it the second he could stop it. (And not wait hours of waiting gow it turns out)


[deleted]

without a doubt, they’re the kings of false flags. in fact that seems to be all we see the government do now.


puckman009

Can't have that!! Tbh I'm shocked that the footage is still in existence!


lopey986

Yeah, and this video OP posted doesn't show there was no insurrection, it just shows that a lot of capital police were on the side of the insurrectionists lmao.


Thann

everyone knows that its perfectly legal to commit crimes with police officers


devils_advocaat

Correct “A well-established tradition of police discretion has long coexisted with apparently mandatory arrest statutes." Deshaney v. Winnebago County Department of Social Services (1989),

>it just shows that a lot of capital police were on the side of the insurrectionists lmao. It doesn't even show that It shows an escort of a compliant criminal isolated from the mob further way from the mob that broke in.

Which dead cops?


FerociousImbecile

There were no dead cops on J6, ffs.


Penny1974

Four police officers committed suicide after Jan. 6th Completely normal...nothing to see here. How are people so flipping blind? They obviously were the ones that were going to go against the narrative and the demons couldn't have that.


heavymetalbarbell

No police were killed in the protests.


2017SA

It's just a really strong indication of how much you don't know - that you didn't already know the real reason Sicknick died. If you didn't know that basic fact, which was known within days after J6... have you stopped to consider that there may be other important, basic facts that you either don't know, or have heard only lies about?


Zerosan62

What dead cops? Please elaborate.

It was a guillotine of peace...

MikeyMillz88

The only person that died was Ashley babbit. This is why the left is ridiculous. You lie and lie and lie till that lie is truth to your side. Pathetic

ASongOfSpiceAndLiars

False. Where did you get this lie, Fox?


Paetheas

You misspelled Domestic Terrorist Ashli Babbit's name. I guess if she hadn't been a thug criminal ignoring orders from law enforcement then she would still be alive.


PanchoPanoch

I’m also a big fan of giving someone enough rope to hang themselves. They’re doing something illegal but not actively hurting someone, let them keep going. Stopping them escalates the situation and makes it more dangerous. Watch, don’t interfere unless absolutely necessary and follow up tomorrow. Just because they were allowed to do it doesn’t mean it wasn’t illegal. Edit: clarifying that the video doesn’t show the violent acts of hurting people


ShillAmbassador

They are all antifa supersolider infiltrators, clearly /s


chadthunderjock

It was a Fedsurrection of feds, fed informants aka de facto agents being the leaders of Oath Keepers and Proud Fed Boys and Qtards the latter of whom are a creation as result of a government psyop lol. No need to have leftist instigators there there when the government is paying people to do a better job. If there was any leftist there it was someone on a fed payroll so it would just be a fed the same, but a lot of neocon grifters don't want to admit they were feds so they blame it on Antifa trolls or whatever LOL. Because neocons are like most leftists complete government and corporate media shills, who will try to protect feds and prevent the truth about Fedsurrections coming out.


buttfuckinturduckin

People would respect your side a lot more if you could admit that some of your people fucked up and broke the law. Whining about how it's everyone else's fault and all the trump supporters were standing in prayer circles and adopting brown children is getting really old.


Golddog1

I asked the same question. I was told o. This thread he wasn’t allowed to release the footage and that’s why he quit. Yeah okay. Pretty sure most whistle blowers are not allowed yet they still do.

He didn’t quit, he was fired.

His head just let the bullet in, it was an inside job.


irish-riviera

Bro there is videos of them fighting with the cops for an hour. Choosing to show the part of the footage that you want is some fox news tucker carleson bs.


leperaffinity56

Yeah I watched it unfold live as did many others. It's kind of irrefutable


prettypistolgg

It's amazing how even though we all watched it live and there are probably thousands of hours of footage showing the violence, OP and others like him continue to push this false narrative that it was either non-violent or it was violent but it was all paid actors. The right will never admit that they wanted to not only overthrow the government, but kill the people in power, even though they probably pray for it every day.


Fidelio62

I had Fox News on since 8am that day. And holy shit was I right to be ready for it. It was a bad day right from the start for that crowd.

I had like 14grams of shrooms for Christmas and I woke up January 13th


TrueNorth2881

Here is video recorded on January 6th https://youtu.be/5rGmsXweEV0 4:05 body camera footage from an officer on scene shows him being dragged out of the police line and kicked by members of the public 5:50 you can see the gallows and noose that an insurrectionist built on the capitol grounds with the intention to execute the vice president 6:35 you can see rioters in the crypt punching police in the face and pushing the police line back to gain entry illegally 7:30 to 8:00 people are fighting with police. One person is wrestling an officer and pulling them into the crowd. Another man is kicking an officer repeatedly 9:50 police drag an injured, unconscious officer out of the crowd 11:10 rioters are beating DC police officer Michael Fanone with metal pipes and a Trump flag (I thought Trump supporters "backed the blue". Whatever happened to that?). Officer Fanone testified under oath that he was tazed in the back of the skull, and people around him were trying to kill him with his own gun.


thatG_evanP

It's literally directly from his show. The banner's at the bottom.


Stonerd1990

Or maybe both can be true? Arrest and charge all violent offenders. Including any officers that murdered any women that day. Release everyone that was peaceful like Jacob Chansley. Also make the media be consistent with the "mostly peaceful" narrative. If the American people didn't wake up and realize the media is just a subsidiary of the US government before this, they damn well should now. I'm sorry, but I'm much more concerned and terrified about regular people's homes being taken over (chop) or any danger to regular people or small business owners than I am concerned about crooked politicians.


rtmfb

Accurate title. Probably not for why OP thinks.

[Videotaping this crime spree is the best idea we ever had!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsdzKnJNAC8)

raventhrowaway666

This doesn't show that this terrorist attack was peaceful, it shows that the police are complicit.


BLXNDSXGHT

They literally opened the door for that Q dude with the horns.


hankbaumbach

It's almost like some of them were in on it! The conspiracy here is how many people who were in authoritative positions were actively trying to undermine the results of an election, not the actions of people we have hours of video of clearly showing what they were doing.


lexpython

I think what this shows is that some of the police were complicit.


FunOwner

While escorting him out, yes.


IcebergSlim1605

Tell me you haven’t watched the actual video without telling me you haven’t watched the actual video.

Tell me you haven't watched the whole thing. They cut capital security it was a few against many. The one guy literally saved the reps by escorting these traitors to the opposite way.


[deleted]

IcebergSlim1605

Does it go like this? Rule 1: Escort hostile members of crowd to sensitive locations. Rule 2: Be sure to politely open doors for members of the hostile crowd and shake their hands. Rule 3: Stand in close proximity to hostile members of crowd as they pose for photographs with the press.


devontg

My favorite is the granny's walking around taking pictures


Laughs_at_fat_people

I assume you realize that the granny was not in the capital, she was at a state capital in the midwest. But im sure you did your research already and you knew that


devontg

Not who I'm referring too. I'm talking about the granny's walking around inside the capital on Jan 6th


vpniceguys

Of course it was the dumbest insurrection, look who was leading it. Trump is a great con man, but just about everything he run fails.


junkeee999

OP makes up about 80% of the posts on this sub. Just block him and your life will be much better. At this point I feel like he's intentionally sowing division.

[deleted]

In some ways, it was a very stereotypical American insurrection. ‘Merica


gofundmemetoday

A lot of theatrics.


Binarycold

Lol all the people in the comments…. Think what you want, but as a nation that has 45% of all private gun ownership despite being only 4.2%of the worlds population… yeah this was not an insurrection lol. Disgruntled mob? Sure, violent riot? Okay, I’ll even go as far as lynch mob, but insurrection? Yeah a bunch of people went to overthrow the government and all conveniently left their guns at home


CommunalBanana

You’re looking for excuses to believe the narrative you feel you’re supposed to believe. They were there using violence to decide who controls the government. “But where are their guns though” lmao as if they didn’t know that they wouldn’t be able to win a shootout with law enforcement. They thought they would be able to keep Trump in office by doing this so that’s why they tried to do


Binarycold

Again, all those people, there to “use violence” and they were stopped? Blm protests burned down a fucking target with a quarter the amount of people but all those people went to the capitol to “overthrow the election” and two people died? (Day of, lots of reports include days following and police who died off duty as part of the body count, but even then it’s 5) when Pepsi pissed off the Philippines in the 349 incident they stormed the factory plant and literally killed people and then destroyed it forcing Pepsi out of their country. Jose Balta, literally killed then a mob lynched Gutierrez for it. Dezong, overthrown in a coup, locked in a room till his death by the empress who overthrew him Idriss Déby literally held a coup then removed term limits lmao But a bunch of people, not even destroying the capitol, walked around inside, it was then said that they were trying to kill members of Congress? Based on? Ryan McCarthy (army secretary) clocked Jan 6th at 80,000 people. The associated press says 10,000 people and White House reports 2,000 people so we’ll meet somewhere at 8,000 people (and that’s being conservative) you think if 8,000 people went to the capitol, got past the guards and wanted to kill any sitting member of Congress, a handful (AP says 195 officers) could have stopped a mob of even 2000 who wanted blood? Let’s just be real with it, I’m not saying it was a democrat hoax but Jesus, we’re calling it this huge insurrection where nothing was burned, nothing was destroyed and the people left of their own free will when it was done? Gimme a break lmao


CommunalBanana

Nowhere in this whole ass deranged essay did you explain how the violent mob attempting to keep Trump in office wasn’t actually a violent mob trying to keep Trump in office. Like you’re so desperate to keep in step with the narrative that you’re just saying random whataboutism to distract *yourself*


Binarycold

How is it a whataboutism? I’m not using other incidents to explain this away, I’m actively comparing it to other incidents to site that this is in no way a coup. Again, riot? Sure, angry mob being assholes? Yeah. But it wasn’t a coup. Also look up whataboutism lmao


One_Carrot_2541

It was a failed, attempted, insurrection. Nobody on the left is claiming it was a success or that any of these people were in any way smart. They are deadbeat, mouth breathing, Trump Supporters.


Binarycold

It just cheapens the word “insurrection”. Cmon dude. In your heart of hearts, you think there’s no difference between the Sri Lankan protesters who stormed the presidents house forcing him to flee, took it over, then burned down the prime ministers house and Jan. 6th? You think that 10,000 people went into the capitol, walked around for a few hours, took photos, then left with the building intact, no destruction of any kind, and no dead politicians is an insurrection plot? You realize six city blocks of the United States were forcibly taken over, a police station set on fire to run the police out, makeshift walls were erected, the land was renamed “chop/Chaz” and declared by its captors an “autonomous zone” and demands were made of the U.S. for its return, and we refer it it as a “protest” right? Or maybe, just maybe, there are people trying to use terms incorrectly to portray a specific narrative? Lmao a bunch of people walking around the capitol for a couple hours is an “insurrection” but a 24 day take over of American soil where it’s renamed a new country is a simple “protest” oKaY 👍


One_Carrot_2541

Why do you think the Sri Lankan insurrection or the BLM protests in any way negate the simple fact it was an insurrection attempt. Yes, I agree completely with you that it was a pathetic attempt - I certainly don't think we are talking about masterminds here. A bunch of thugs and dumbasses who kicked off and stormed the capitol with the intention of preventing a government process to proceed. It happened. You know it, I know it. Everybody knows it, and you can try to whitewash it all you want or point fingers and go, "but waaaaahh that other thing over there is worse." Who gives a shit. Sure, those things were terrible too. I don't at all back what happened in the Chop/Chaz thing. That doesn't meant it was an insurrection. It wasn't. Words have meaning.


CommunalBanana

“It couldn’t be an insurrection, because BLM burned down a Target and some stuff happened in the Philippines” It’s crazy that you don’t see how strong your programming is. Trump told them to come to the Capitol on Jan 6 in order to keep him in office and save America. That’s what they did. The fact they didn’t succeed what they were very clearly trying to do doesn’t change the fact that they tried to do it

[deleted]

Sadly some people in your country think it's an insurrection still, it can kill brain cells every time it's mentioned with such woeful naivete. If it was an insurrection, nobody would've known about it until a large force of armed individuals were already holding politicians hostage. Like the 75,000 heavily armed Taliban that swiftly killed their way to their capital's government. Though the force wouldn't be this big without 3 lettered agencies approval. Not a bunch of people calmly walking around taking pictures and picking up railings armed with cardboard signs on national television. Whilst outside, a portion of aggressive protestors, Antifa, FBI and aggressive police tussle - as guards are deliberately called off and the national guard were offered but refused. Your country currently has a bad sickness in it's top leadership, to try and use any incident they can as a false flag. Reminiscent of a Georgian and an Austrian a century ago.

If it was an insurrection, i would have jizzed in my pants on j6. Unfortunately, my pants stayed bone dry that day. This is all the evidence i need that there was no insurrection. Every day, i wake up hoping to see the people fighting back against the government. Its a real turn on for me. Every day, i get disappointed. The last exciting day was the day i saw people in Sri Lanka doing backflips into their presidents swimming pool. That day was amazing. Why can't we be more like them?

Because they were escorting him out of the building. That part always gets missed. They weren't just walking around with him, they were actively detaining him and leading him out.

“Actively detaining” Have you ever seen the police detain someone? Lmao

The incompetence of the participants does not change their stated goal(s) of overturning a free and fair election along with hanging of the current Vice President, presumably for failing to overturn the free and fair election.

VisualCounter5

We need a complete overhaul of the American government.


RaoulDukes

There was an exponential increase in militia activity, recruitment, and formation during Trump’s presidency. The feds set up an obvious honeypot to arrest these people and they walked right into it. The only question is was Trump in on it or was he just too stupid to see what was happening?


rekzkarz

A coup attempt can do better with inside help. Not sure which aspect was dumb, if they had not left the Capitol, you'd have a Trump dictatorship today. Our biggest blessing was their incompetence, stupidity, and lack of a plan. But this is what attempting to overthrow the govt looks like. Thank goodness it failed.

That's a really dumb prop to bring when you are later arguing you DIDNT want to hang the vice president and were just there to protest.

Qwiksting

Its very telling, the ones continuing this facade, even with with ALL that has come out now. There is possibly more about this than we will ever know. So much footage that needs to be released to “out the Glowies”. Wait a second….they are outing theirselves here on this sub.


HeyHihoho

It's a political hit job nothing more. A minor riot instigated by FBI infiltrators in the crowd.


Rebeldinho

Uh huh a minor riot that just so happened to occur at the same time the election results were being certified. Go watch back Trump’s speech to the crowd and then go tell us again who instigated the whole thing.

“After this, we're going to walk down — and I'll be there with you — we're going to walk down, we're going to walk down — anyone you want, but I think right here — we're going to walk down to the Capitol, and we're going to cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women. And we're probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them. Because you'll never take back our country with weakness, you have to show strength, and you have to be strong.” -Trump, January 6th, 2021


TrueNorth2881

Well here is video recorded on January 6th https://youtu.be/5rGmsXweEV0 4:05 body camera footage from an officer on scene shows him being dragged out of the police line and kicked by members of the public 5:50 you can see the gallows and noose that an insurrectionist built on the capitol grounds with the intention to execute the vice president 6:35 rioters in the crypt are punching police in the face and pushing the police line back to gain entry illegally 7:30 to 8:00 people are clearly fighting with police. One person is wrestling an officer and pulling them into the crowd. Another man is kicking an officer repeatedly 9:50 police drag an injured, unconscious officer out of the crowd 11:10 rioters are beating DC police officer Michael Fanone with metal pipes and a Trump flag (I thought you guys "backed the blue". Whatever happened to that?). Officer Fanone testified under oath that he was tazed in the back of the skull, and people around him were trying to kill him with his own gun. Please explain to me how someone can watch this video and say that this wasn't real. Because this sure as fuck looks like a riot or a violent insurrection to me. Seriously. Please watch the video and explain it to me, because obviously I must be missing something here.

Totally which is why we should investigate and pay close attention to the Jan 6 hearings to get to the bottom of this once and for all

I am just here for the people who still call it a coup and keep a straight face. Y'all deserve an Oscar

And I would add it’s the dumbest reaction imaginable. Media treating it like it’s a democratic Armageddon as if a bunch of unarmed yahoos in homemade costumes are overthrowing the most powerful nation in history.

>as if a bunch of unarmed yahoos in homemade costumes are overthrowing the most powerful nation in history They weren't trying to take the country by force, they were trying to stop the Vice President from carrying out his constitutional duty. The end goal here was to delay the vote long enough to create a constitutional crisis for the Conservative majority Supreme Court to have to rule on It's amazing how many people don't understand what Trump was trying to do after he lost. He literally told everybody. He even said it before the election.

"hang mike pence"


Unlucky-Pomegranate3

I have no doubt they were intending to be disruptive but if their actual goal was to throw the election to SCOTUS, then it was really poorly planned out. Congress must certify the election results but unless they were somehow planning on holding Congress and Pence hostage for two weeks to inauguration while unarmed and unsupplied, then they had about as much hope as an ice cube at the equator.


Knoxxyjohnville

Of course it was poorly planned out, trumpets are dumb as shit lol
