Hubbub? I am trying to understand you.Who benefits from all this hubbub?
Who benefits the most from what is in the news today as a result of that protest?
Many milled about the Rotunda even staying within the velvet rope barriers like a bunch of tourists thinking they were let in to have their voices heard, while a handful went wild (most gaining access by other means).Of course the belligerent who had no business acting tin that manner would be used to make a political point and give the impression of insurrection. But it won't be long before the true motives of these who would manipulate truth to their advantage will be shown for who they are. Stay tuned. The worst is yet to come.
Show us something edifying to Christianity which is being mocked.. For example, we have running now a thread encouraging us to pray in Christ's name for a miracle to allow Trump to continue in office. One of the responses to that OP equated Trump's removal from office with the persecution of Christians. Neither post was particularly edifying to Christianity and as far as I am aware, neither was mocked. Have you got a getter example?
Storming the national capitol old news just a week or two later?I'll agree with that. But this would be old news if it weren't for certain people milking it.
What was the point of this "theatrics"?Everything is old news when the purpose is theatrics.
Your profile says you are from Canada. How dare you call the sacking of our nation's capitol "old news"! "Theatrics!Everything is old news when the purpose is theatrics.
I don't care who looks bad because both sides play the game. Trump tells them to not do nothing stupid amd play into their hands but they do it anyway. Do they deserve what they got? Yes. And those whose hands they played into are showing their true colours now too. Amusing but serves no purpose except for those who fund political games by playing it up.You would think people would see that and shrug, but nope, everyone wants a fight and it serves the purpose of absolutely no one but those at the top. Keep the peasants squabbling amongst themselves so they don't pay attention to what is going on at the topYou want to downplay it because it makes Trump supporters look bad.
Which "top" are you referring to? Moscow? Beijing?I don't care who looks bad because both sides play the game.

It's a shame how people continue to believe in this garbage, and we can even see it here all over CF, and maybe even especially here all over CF considering to the great extent U.S. Christianity has been saturated with Christian Nationalism to the point where too many can't seem to understand the difference between being a Christ-follower and the doctrine of American exceptionalism. It didn't start with Trump. Trump is simply the loud and unfortunate result of what has already been going on more subtly for decades, particularly within the GOP but also elsewhere.
No, those claims came from police who actually arrested a number of actual conservatives committing crimes during BLM protests - e.g.Police: Richmond riots instigated by white supremacists disguised as Black Lives Matter.
The claims mentioned in the the OP are coming from right-wing propaganda sources (and the people who parrot them) and are based on pure fantasy.
Big difference.
