Correct. If it was proven Biden didn't win, and we moved forward with Biden anyway, I think a little violence would be appropriate.

No, that's not what I think. I already explained, it was my opinion that Trump was anti-establishment (I realize that's debatable) and that's why I voted for him. I then agreed the Green Party would have been a better choice, but that neither vote mattered since I live in California.

Trump didn't win California, so I didn't enable anything.

Honestly, who doesn’t believe this?
We live in a country where we just lay economic siege on any countries we even suspect of fraudulent elections.
That said, if the Democrats DID cheat and steal the election, I’d much rather deal with their fraudulent victory than correcting that. The violence brought on by 4 more years of Trump far outweighs the cheating imo.

You were one of the 72 million who gave a stamp of approval to trumps deplorable conduct. That means something.

Ah, this makes sense. Violence is not appropriate for grievances, but since election fraud is not a legitimate grievance, but a normal everyday thing that people shouldn;t be upset about, violence is okay in that case.
Do you routinely shoot people for walking funny?

I don't. We're a nation of laws. We have due process. It will never be perfect, but Falcon91Wolvrn03's position and yours inevitably leads to "might equals right. "

No. We should follow the laws and procedures put in place to address the grievance and then carry out the lawful outcome of those procedures.

Obviously I agree. But we don't always do that.
What I'm saying is that if it could be proven that Trump won, and we moved forward with Biden anyway, that would be grounds for violence.

You put too much weight in what the truth is. It’s not what the truth is, it’s what people think the truth is. After watching trump lie his ass all the way to the Oval Office we should have learned this lesson by now.

I think you’re operating under a very narrow definition of violence. Might does equal right. That’s why rich people and cops get away with murder and people like us don’t. You yourself have used this argument to explain why communism can’t work.
It might not be how things should be, but it’s how they are.

For a presidential election? Yes, I think so.

Why even engage in electoral politics then? If Bernie subscribed to that idea people would still think universal healthcare and socialism are evil.

But Bernie didn't go with what people thought. He went with what was right. And people joined him.
Maybe I missed your point?
Just like I said Trump didn't nefariously collude with the Russian Government. And people now generally agree my side was right.
