Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) is assaulted by a protester during her first town hall meeting in her district of Minneapolis amid ongoing tension and protest of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations. The protester jumps out of his seat and charges the representative before reportedly throwing a substance on her. This came following her call on Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to resign.
It’s going to keep escalating. Wonder when this will mirror the Caning of Charles Sumner.
The comment chain clearly evolved between the OP and my comment. Someone asked when “unc” got such a negative connotation after another commenter described it in quite despicable terms.
My comment was on the nature of using the word “unc” in such a derogatory way, when lots of people use it as a term of endearment or at least as a less-harsh way of calling someone old/out-of-touch.
What I said had nothing to do with the guy in the video. That dude’s an asshole and should rot in prison for assaulting a member of congress. I even commented elsewhere that he would have deserved it if she clobbered him.
Rage at somebody else.
I’m clearly not the one raging about anything rn.
You even said
And
So clearly you understood the context, but you deliberately chose to misconstrue what I said because why? Do you get off on it or something?
This is not a healthy world view. I’m done with this conversation, have a good night.
It’s not a healthy state that the world is in. I’m simply diagnosing it (one of several problems, of course).
Going incel adjacent is the wrong direction. I told you I was done with this conversation, I’m blocking you now jfc.
Taking issue with someone describing a generic term for men of a certain age group as “creepy, misbehaving, often drunk,” and “touches himself too much” is incel adjacent? Or is it noticing the trend where that sort of thing is becoming more common?
Or you could preemptively block me because you know what you said is an undefendable stance and you don’t feel like admitting that?
