Thank god

misinformation-for-pay that may have led to the January 6th Capitol Riot

It was a temper tantrum

It was a bunch of white people who were mad their guy didn't win

There was no secret conspiracy, there was no plan to undermine the USA

Just a bunch of jet ski dealers and hvac guys who refused to play by the rules they demand for everyone else

Also, I refuse to call it Jan 6, like it's something along the lines of 9/11

Hell, I might even stop calling it 9/11

It was also a temper tantrum that was talked about beforehand enough online that we all knew here they were going to go there throw a fit. Yet somehow no one else knew?
The libs want to call it a coup, but they didn't do anything to head it off, when people going there to have their tantrum talked about it online. Then the capitol police let them in and got medals for it later. Libs response to even this one isolated thing is so scatteredshot i can't even make sense of it.
"It was a coup, but yeah we'll do nothing and let Trump run again in 4 years - we're not AuThOrItArIaNs!" Libs are something else. They can't even stay consistent with their own lore lol
- "It was a coup, but yeah we'll do nothing and let Trump run again in 4 years - we're not AuThOrItArIaNs!" Libs are something else. They can't even stay consistent with their own lore lol
  The ancient scriptures have foretold it
- It’s part of the latest trend to go “x thing is y by a technical definition even though everyone knows it isn’t, but I’m going to call it y anyway because it makes it sound more dramatic than it actually is”
  For example, “punching fascists is literally domestic terrorism, arrest this domestic terrorist!” as if it were equivalent to blowing up a building. This is how liberals operate.
- Then they praised the same cops that let them in as well as the military that didn’t show up to protect them from the supposed coup
- Yeah a lot of leftist groups put out heads up not to show up in DC that day because they smelled a trap
Hell, I might even stop calling it 9/11
Might as well, since both of these events pale in comparison to what's been done to Chile and Allende personally.
The Capital Temper Tantrum
- Nice, 2nding the motion to rename the january 6th shenanigans to this. Democrats act like it was an organized Coup, and it was just a bunch of whiny boomers throwing a tantrum.
What would we call 9/11 then? Funny plane crash day?
have you considered that calling it jan 6 will help cheapen 9/11 and inversely create the potential for increasingly unserious future events to be categorized as national tragedies?
- tanking a knee for the victims of the Bowling Green Massacre
9/11 is just Saudi thanksgiving

Doing an epic walk and talk while smearing shit on the walls

Doing an epic verbal takedown of the hypocrisy of being labeled "less than lethal" as a man fatally tases himself in the balls

Somber horn music and a snare drum roll while a cop gets klobbered in the dome with an American flag

Montage of chuds doxxing themselves on national TV while doing interviews. "I'm John Slabbaport from Shremstown Pennsylvania." "I'm Flank Didger from Tungsten Ohio." "I'm Molissa Rugger from Plemspray Arizona."

fast articulate walk-and-talk between a jet ski dealership owner and a real estate agent on their way to capture nancy pelosi's appointment book or whatever
I heard he didn't even include the pig in the Chicago Seven movie he made, so it'll probably just be about FBI guys and congresscritters investigating it or something, while striding importantly around the capital of course, and with many impassioned speeches about rights and democracy and shit.

If this doesn't include

giving an impassioned speech right before stealing the podium and running off as the score changes to Yakety Sax, it's screenwriting malpractice.

Walk-and-talk but Via Getty is carrying the podium in front of him as he gives his speech, being careful to stay within the purple boundary lines.

If there’s money to be made on misinformation it’s only rational to pursue it. Liberalism cannot square that circle.

Pootin did it
- Dems are going to legalize the purge in America but still want us to be afraid of Putin.

Who are they going to cast to play

?

Bigger question: Who will play
and

I say Brad Pitt and Meryl Streep

That cop liberals wanted to make Time's person of the year is probably going to be the main character. There's also going to be some Republican politician who's going to give a speech about how we're better than this and need to overcome our differences, because a nation divided blah blah blah, then everyone stands in stunned silence and claps afterwards.

Misinformation for pay = It was Russia!

When is Sorkin gonna fuck off forever? Just the fucking worst, smarmiest writing (and writer) i've ever encountered.

The subject should be in the hands of a much better writer/director, maybe Mel Brooks?

Adam Sandler?

"The" January 6th? Drop the "the." Just "January 6th." It's cleaner.

A million fake write in ballots isn't cool, you know what's cool? A billion fake write in ballots.

Please god, do this

The Chapo episode will be great

Soon to be followed by a Broadway adaptation with Lin-Manuel Miranda starring as the spirit of democracy

We should all come out to be extras in the crowd shots!

I could do a pretty convincing angry American

I just threw up in my mouth a little

i dare you sorkin, chris hemsworth as the qanon shaman

wasn't via getty a failed actor? casting has the potential to do something very funny

Aaron Sorkin tried to investigate January 6th himself: "I Looked For Evidence"

When they get to the Babbit scene it’ll be a walk and talk, except it’s the only tolerable sorkin hallway scene because somebody shuts the speaker up for once.

The whole misinformation angle is bullshit. It's such a lib mindset to think your enemies are just misinformed.

The majority of people at Jan 6 were business owners or upper management. They came from urban communities that had seen a decline in the white population. https://d3qi0qp55mx5f5.cloudfront.net/cpost/i/docs/Pape_AmericanInsurrectionistMovement_2022-01-02.pdf

Like every fascist movement Jan 6 was the petite bourgeois attempting to shut down democracy and install a dictator that would stop demographic changes and keep the current hierarchies unchanged despite the falling rate of profit and the resulting monopolisation / need for the growth of the working class.

But if you refuse to see it as a systemic, almost inevitable process, then you're left thinking the Jan 6 people were just CraZzyYy. Maybe it's that damn internet the kids are always on!

I eagerly wait the Russian-accent hacker Sorkin walking dialogue
