Saying "Trump did X and broke the law doing it" is not the same thing as saying "This would be fine if Trump had done it through legal channels".
I literally said I know you oppose the action. Put that on the sign, its the most important thing.
Maybe we're reading things differently, but I thought their sign implied that fairly strongly, just that they wanted to tack "Trump is a criminal" onto that without drastically increasing the wording.
Maybe that's what they intended but I've noticed a trend of liberals immediately triangulating themselves into this "least-controversial" legalistic take because they don't want to talk about Maduro. A stalinist waving a PSUV flag is more helpful at that point.
I'm not accusing you in particular of this or OP for that matter.
Quit calling people you don’t know liberals. That’s a trend that needs to stop, comrade. Most of the people you say that shit to are on our side, they just don’t put the terms and thoughts together.
Also, go complain to the protestors, or better yet, be at the protests.
If you want real change, quit nitpicking people on lemmy.
