And that "certain level" is very low. The media narrative is trying to make it seem much higher than it is. They largely omit the speeches, the chanting, the dancing, and the standing around. They minimize the extraordinarily violent response.
You're completely missing my point regardless and making it something that it isn't.
I couldn't possibly care less about "the media."
How far are we from normal? What's the precedent for this?
That stuff matters. But according to some random other person in this thread "I'm an idiot for asking because I'm brainwashed by the media."
NO. I want to know HOW NORMAL IS THIS and instead we're having this other honestly very annoying conversation debating whether or not any violence occurred or if it was "enough" violence or the "right kind" of violence.
So yeah, thank you very not much for derailing my question.
