    There was nothing violent about 90% of either of those protests. And what violence there was, there is a fair amount of evidence it was plants to undermine the protest goals.

    JFK was an assassination. There isn’t a shred of evidence there was an attempt to seize power.

      Same with the first list.

      And what violence there was, there is a fair amount of evidence it was plants to undermine the protest goals.

      I don’t doubt there were agent provocateurs. Similarly, on Jan 6th there were police who dismantled barriers and the FBI lost count of the number of informants it had in the crowd.

      JFK was an assassination. There isn’t a shred of evidence there was an attempt to seize power.

      Nor does the CIA attempt to seize power in coups created in other countries.

        Lol what? Point 1 The Jan 6th insurrection was founded with violence as a goal. Their whole purpose was to force their way into the Capitol building by any means necessary.

        Point 2 ROFL, I can’t even, conflating an informant with a provocateur…

        Point 3 Please, please look up the term “coup” the CIA installed puppet governments under their control…

          Some certainly had that idea, but there are also photos of (nonviolent) grandma’s in the Capitol building. Also, those actions alone would never have resulted in a coup.

          ROFL, I can’t even, conflating an informant with a provocateur…

          Why? The FBI has a history of goading victims into violence.

          Please, please look up the term “coup” the CIA installed puppet governments under their control…

          And president Kennedy wasn’t under their control. He said to one of the highest officials of his Administration that he “wanted to splinter the C.I.A. in a thousand pieces and scatter it to the winds.”
