I am not going to pretend you are engaging in civilized discussion. You are comparing people protesting against a constant threat to their lives from law enforcement - ask any black parent about "the talk" - to people protesting losing an election fomented by lies.
On one side you have a real issue impacting the life of millions of people daily, on the other you have an issue artificially created based on lies, falsehoods and misdirection.
These are not even remotely similar events, not by any measure. The response to these events from law enforcement was not close, nor comparable.
Stop this false equivalence.

I agree the two events are not equivalent. Nevertheless, I think the bar has to be set higher before deciding a person is not worth talking to.
"I am not going to pretend you are engaging in civilized discussion."
Are you sure you know this? I don't know who GreenHeuristics is, perhaps his comment is in good faith, perhaps not, I don't know. But his comment wasn't a mad rant, how ever much anyone may dislike it.
