Did you slip up there and just said "congress" when you meant to say "human race"?

Removal from the Human race may be a little too strong.

The media have swooped in to defend pro-Palestinian protesters: Only Republicans are capable of an “insurrection.”

The establishment media have swooped in to defend pro-Palestinian protesters with an embarrassing double standard: Only Republicans are capable of an “insurrection.”
Over 300 anti-Israel demonstrators were arrested last week after swarming a congressional building to demand a cease-fire between Israel and Gaza. They chanted, blew a horn, fought police officers, and generally made fools of themselves, all in response to the now-debunked claim that Israel bombed a Gaza hospital.
This activity will be quickly excused and forgotten about, just like every other leftist tantrum at the U.S. Capitol since Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings. Yet we have been told for over two and a half years that the right-wing protest at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, was one of the darkest events in American history.
Why is that?
Newsweek is here to explain, though not in the way it means to.
“No, the pro-Palestinian Protest on Capitol Hill Was Not an ‘Insurrection,’” the outlet’s headline argued. Its article responded to “some Republicans” who used the Left’s favorite term for the Jan. 6 protest.
“The Merriam-Webster dictionary states that the legal definition of an insurrection is ‘the act or an instance of revolting especially violently against civil or political authority or against an established government,’” Newsweek lectured.
Among the hundreds of Donald Trump supporters who protested at the Capitol, only a handful violently broke in and caused the House and Senate to evacuate. Most arrived well after the disruption, and police are seen on video escorting and inviting them inside on the condition that they demonstrate peacefully. But every last selfie-taker or harmless grandma in the crowd was as evil as the rest of the “hundreds” who “broke into Congress,” according to Newsweek’s past coverage. Everything, down to alleged misdemeanors, constituted an “insurrection.”
Conservatives then labeled pro-Palestinian protesters “insurrectionists” based on the media’s loose definition. Newsweek says this is wrong because “the demonstrators did not break into the building, did not claim to want to interfere in a government proceeding, and did not destroy government property or threaten politicians.” Ironically, the outlet just explained why a great deal, if not most, of the Jan. 6 protesters were also not insurrectionists.
The Associated Press showed us the same goalpost-switching when transgender activists disrupted official proceedings at state capitols in April. When Trump supporters protested in Washington, the AP’s idea of an insurrection was as broad as possible: “an act or instance of revolting against civil authorities or an established government.” In response to the transgender mob, the AP conveniently raised the bar: The protesters were off the hook because there wasn’t “a coordinated attempt to overthrow government.”
Journalists know that words matter. That’s why they use a loaded term that makes it easier for society to demonize right-wingers as treasonous terrorists. It’s a weapon of psychological warfare. And as using it on last week’s Capitol invaders would be friendly fire, it remains noticeably absent from all mainstream coverage.


Commentary:
Kudos to Mr. Crozier the article deserves reading and will undoubtedly receive a ;ot of negative attention from our Progressive Democrat Socialists of America (ala CPUSA).
The fact is that it just wasn't the "AP", but regular Leftist news rags and Quisling Media that denied the facts and keep changing the goal posts.
You can plainly see that in how they are now protecting the universities using anti-semetic protests and justifying the Hamas savage attack on Israel in massacres that killed at least 1000 women and children and abducting the 200.

None of these events, J6 or the transgender demonstration or the pro Palestinian protest or any other such events come anywhere close to an insurrection. They are made up of people with zero intent to overthrow the government. Legally or illegally, right or wrong, all were intended to influence the decisions the lawmakers make.

Crozier accurately makes that point and kudos to him. When ALL the media is as honest about it, we might be on a track closer to returning to normalcy when intellectual honesty is allowed.

So why was a single January 6th defendant not charged with insurrection?

Because there wasn't any.

 

[BlindBoo]

It is the act of civil disobedience verse a riot.

This.


Is not this

 

[jwoodie]

They were trying to keep Trump in office, which is treason.

Not much of an insurrection when their "leader" voluntarily leaves office.

His fascist dreams were dashed when our military told him to "Go Fish"! Probably why he absolutely hates General Milley.

This is how stupid you are. You believe a few hundred unarmed civilians attempted to overthrow the most powerful military in the history of the planet,

Thats a special kind of stupid, Stupid.

You think the Jan 6th riot was the only plot the Dirty Don was involved in? You are special.

Trump directly involved in plans to seize voting machines -reports

Then-President Donald Trump was directly involved in efforts to use national security agencies to seize voting machines after his 2020 election loss, pressing his lawyer to make queries as advisers drafted two versions of a related executive order, media reports said.

Most of America believe J6 was insurrectionary.

What the deniers say matters not at all.

Milley would have pistol whipped Trump out the front door if he had not..

You know they were arrested, right?

The rubes remain absolutely desperate to diminish The Insurrection.

Good.

Everyone should have Zionist elitism, theft, murder, illegal occupation, attempted genocide of the natives, etc.
If Israelis would have allowed the Right of Return, and not invaded across the 1948 UN partition, only then could Israel have any legal claim to legitimacy.
But since they violated all legal norms, they are the criminals.

I am far left, but I hate computers being used as voting machines, since they not only are easily hacked, but could also easily have built in backdoors.

Computing machines are much more reliable than humans in counting practically everything including ballots. Hacking a secure stand alone computer in a closed network is harder than you think including accessing so called backdoor access.

Hamas was not justified in breaking the truce on Oct 7th. Israel exists because they whipped all those surrounding Arab Nations in 1948 and will continue to exist as long as they have a strong enough military.

Computing machines are incredibly unreliable because there is no way for anyone to easily see if they are being hacked or have built in back-doors right from day one.
Counting a stack of paper ballots is vastly more accurate because observers can easily keep their own visual tally, and compare with that is claimed.
Hacking any computer is trivial because all you have to do is plug in a USB card or know the wifi password.
And the company that makes the voting computers would know the wifi password for their own machines.
Backdoor access is trivial if you worked for the company that made them.

Hamas was more than justified in retaliation against Israel constantly violating every agreement ever made concerning Palestine.
The natives were 95% Moslem in 1920, so they have all the legal right of local autonomy and self determination.
Israel is a bunch of illegal immigrants who murdered tens of thousands of unarmed natives, in order to steal their homes.

You seem to misunderstand the situation.
Israel did not get attacked, but started the attack on Arab villages, like Deir Yassin.
And Israel did not win because they were right, better, or anything else.
The won because the US illegally armed them with all our surplus WWII weapons, like Sherman tanks, B-17 bombers, P-51 Mustangs, etc.
The Arabs had left over WWI weapons.
It was a horrendously unfair fight by evil criminals, and that included the US that knew it was illegal to arm the Zionists.
