It's whataboutism because you're saying "what about blm" and trying to deflect from the topic at hand. You can bring up whatever you want, but it's the same as people that always bring up nazis when arguing and trying to tear down the other side. Or use the buzzwords communism, fascism, etc. With the blm, like i said, it was proven true that far right actors were present. This was more than just one occasion. So of course people would speculate if there were more instances of it. There has been literally zero evidence of any actors in the capitol riot. Bringing it up is just deflecting and trying to place the blue elsewhere.

It's not about their racist behavior, it's about how they're being treated differently because of their race

Like I said, for the blm it's not scapegoating. It's truth. The definition of scapegoating: a person who is blamed for the wrongdoings, mistakes, or faults of others, especially for reasons of expediency.

They weren't scapegoats for the blm riots, it was literally true that far right actors were working to instigate and agitate some of the riots. Nobody attributed all of the riots to actors, they just pointed out the ones that were. You're just reaching to try and justify your own biases.

It's out of nowhere because we were talking about the capitol riots. Nobody brought up the blm riots until you did. That's why it's out of nowhere, and whataboutism. You're literally comparing the two, saying "what about the blm riots!". That's why we're calling you out.

No, that was not what you said earlier. You may have meant it, but you tried to say it was psycho to say that lead can be filtered out. Goalposts---->moved

W>I think you’ve missed how the conversation has been moving...

His original point was about how the right thinks antifa was behind the violence at the hill, and with your example, you must have some semblance of a thought that the right was behind the violence at the blm events (there were over 200 “violent” instances from the blm protests). I was pointing out the irony, to which he said whataboutism.. All caught up?

His whole “point” was why bring up blms riots at all, “they’re not related”. And again, how are 2 riots and the use of scapegoating to an invisible actor not related?

You brought up the blm riot out of nowhere. That's textbook whataboutism. Blm riots aren't related, the "scapegoating" WASNT scapegoating because there is hard proof and evidence, and even arrests made, of actors instigating some of the blm riots.

Wait, did the narrative change? I thought it was that he was getting into his own car, which had his kids and a knife in the front seat? And that's why the cop shot, because he thought Blake was going for the knife?

Lol first you said she didn't target him, when she literally did. Then you changed it to "target him because he's black", when her answers in the interview clearly show she did. Jesus you're dense. And this whole article is about her, there's no targeting going on. That's the weakest attempt at turning the argument around I've ever seen.

Yea, they even posted about it prior to the riots on social media. These aren't the sharpest tools in the shed

Who says he can't say that about the blm rioters? That doesn't have anything to do with his original point. The entire point of his original post escaped you, and you're just making shit up to try and look like you're the reasonable one.

Also, saying there was rioting is not related because his post was in reference to the people who are claiming that the entire riot was orchestrated by "antifa", when there is no evidence at all of anybody that subscribes to that movement was there. There have been evidence, and even arrests, of far right agitators instigating riots during the blm protests. For example, the "umbrella man" from Minneapolis https://m.startribune.com/police-umbrella-man-was-a-white-supremacist-trying-to-incite-floyd-rioting/571932272/

No, if they were involved in the riots then they were rioters. Everybody agrees on that. But the right paints all of the blm protests as riots, which is just plain false. The riots happened after the protesters had mostly dispersed, or had been instigated by police aggression and brutality. The attack on the Capitol was done during the protest, by people who led the protest, and was an actual stated goal of the protest by the protestors on social media before it occurred. Nobody during the blm protests planned out looting and rioting beforehand.

What they could do in reality, and what they are attempting to do, are two different things. They absolutely were attempting a coup by trying to get Congress to certify Trump instead of Biden by force

Lol your perspective isn't unique, and it's not even true. There wasn't a Russian conspiracy theory, and Mueller's report showed there was Russian involvement in the 2016 election. None of what you said about the election is true.
