Bag On My Head
In 2008, “dissent” went from being the “highest form of patriotism”, a quote by Communist revisionist historian Howard Zinn that DEMOCRATS falsely attributed to Thomas Jefferson, to "treason" after Bush made way for B. Hussein Obama.
The old bumper stickers about the "patriotic value of dissent" were swiftly replaced with others touting the value of "change".
Then, in 2017, "resistance" was suddenly "patriotic" again. The “resistance” then spent four years undermining elected officials while claiming that they were entitled to do it because the 2016 election had been illegitimate.
Black Lives Matter rioters besieged the White House and set fire to its guardhouse They are still being described by DEMOCRATS and the DEMOCRAT media as "peaceful protesters".
The same DEMOCRATS and the DEMOCRAT media agonized over photos of National Guardsmen protecting the Lincoln Memorial as a sign of incipient fascism.
Less than a year later, 25,000 troops occupying D.C. to suppress protesters are being cheered by the same DEMOCRATS and the DEMOCRAT media
On January 6th, "resistance" turned into "sedition", "treason", and "insurrection".
The thousands of peaceful protesters who didn't riot were accused of attempting to "overthrow the government" along with the handful who broke into the Capitol.
People who weren't even there (including elected officials) are now under threat of retribution.
In the span of one hour, questioning the integrity of an election went from being a "patriotic duty" to "a shocking attack on our democracy".
The difference between resistance and sedition, between protests and insurrections, is who’s in charge.
These aren’t distinctions in law. The only real distinction is who’s in power.
