The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"But no riots yet...." - Al

"You guys really, really want to dunk on me over that one, eh? Okay :).

I have faith that the loonier elements of the American left won't let me down!"
- Dope

Oh, I have absolutely no doubt that you will be able to find some radical left person who gets violent and maybe even a group of them who riot. The big difference will be though that the vast majority of the rest of the Democratic party will not support that violence like you and the rest of your ilk did for the January 6th insurrectionists. Remember, you have dozens of posts on these board expressing sympathy for people who attacked law enforcement and chanted death threats. You have over a dozen posts supporting Ashley Babbit alone over the officer who was trying to protect his charge.

That won't happen on the left. So you will still be wrong with your behavioral projection about riots.
