Absolutely *love* how Republicans were condemning the peaceful BLM protests, but now these same people are literally storming the Capitol Building

in addition to those in the dc area if you are in california, kansas, arizona, georgia, florida, ohio, oregon, or arkansas, please stay safe, and if you are a bipoc, woman, or lgbt+ person, do not leave your house unless absolutely necessary. this thread is updating constantly as more trump supporters and terrorists riot nationwide.

The whiplash of feeling excited and hopeful about Blue Georgia to the horror and anger over witnessing an actual live fascist coup. January 6th sure is a day.

“ah surely the kanye jeffree starr alleged hookup is the craziest thing I’ll hear today” I say, a full minute before checking twitter to see armed maskless white supremacists have stormed the capitol building and the senate is barricaded in their chamber

Yes they’re trump supporters but call them what they are: terrorists

just so we're clear, saying "wow this feels like we're in north korea/afghanistan/syria/venezuela/pakistan/[insert another country in the global south]" is racist and orientalist. this is happening here, in the united states, and if you had your head out of your ass you'd know that 250 years of white supremacy and genocide and capitalism and colonial violence and imperialism have led up to this moment. the united states did not only ALLOW this to happen here, the united states created this and has been enacting fascism since it was created.

cool how militarized police will fire tear gas at protesters outside the white house so trump can get his photo op but be completely absent when 100+ trump supporters literally physically break into the capitol building
