I love this game.

"What about this example of political violence?"

"That's not real and MAJOR political violence."
For instance, is it real and major political violence to start lobbing tear gas into an unarmed crowd to do a photo op across the street?
Is it real and major political violence when there's a rash of police violence against peaceful protesters and journalists for criticizing them? https://twitter.com/greg_doucette/status/1266751520055459847?lang=en
I mean, we're grasping pretty far for violence when Rand Paul's neighbor beating him up is both "major" and "political," so I feel like maybe the standard is more relaxed than Tracey suggests.
The fact of the matter is that in the past four years there has been no left-wing violence whatsoever directed against anyone with a Swedish last name in a blue coat
