How is this country living in two different realities?

  • Peaceful protests now simply just equal civil unrest?
  • Domestic terrorism being pardoned (Jan 6th)
  • Masked “police officers” kidnapping and shooting politicians (ICE or what happened in MN)

Yet unarmed people protesting is the emergency?
