After pro-Trump rallies, hundreds of Proud Boys roam D.C. terrorizing people at night

For the second time in this thread, I did Nazi this coming.

“You are the Jews of world war III”

For this bunch, the Jews are also the Jews of world war III.

When I saw the thumbnail I thought they were wearing MacLeod of Lewis tartan. Luckily it was just some yellow camo(?)

I don’t think it right that the poster’s name was hidden. This sort of post could possibly just be made up, but if it isn’t then the poster should be known, so either way, I disagree with the redaction.

Last year I got a nice zinc yellow light winter jacket. Fuck them! Cargo shorts, polo shirts, not yours!

At least they probably won’t hijack drover coats.

Breitbart has a bunch of Andy Ngo-style selective edit video pieces.

I agree. Things like this should put the poster on a FBI watch lists, etc.

Trump also tried to suppress military votes, had already cut base daycare, insulted those serving/veterans/fallen, and let an entire aircraft carrier succumb to plague and did nothing. If anything the military would probably eject him from office ahead of time and be done with him.

Before lockdown and working from home, we would see many, many examples of the military at EAFB and AFRL holding events (ex: selling T-shirts/mugs/challenge coins) to raise cash for soldiers/families in need and asking for people to donate sick-leave time to those who were ill and needed the hours. As far as the day-care issue, one of the young civilian AF engineers we worked with would often have to bring her infant child with her to our work site office.

The Tulsa Race Massacre was also featured as a plot point in Lovecraft Country. I think the whole point of that series is that racism is the true eldritch horror, bigger and worse than any silly monster you can dream up because it is actually true.

Hey, these assholes are going to be arrested for doing this anywhere anytime to anybody after January 20, right?

They know. Hopefully act preemptive deescalation.

I can’t bring myself to watch all these, but I see that at least one of the fascists is wearing the American flag as a cape like he thinks he’s some kind of innocent-woman-punching superhero.

If you want the historical perspective, there’s this:
Germans who were in the resistance who had relatives who were “early adopters” of Nazism were reported by their relatives and faced the usual repercussions - imprisonment, torture, death.

So you made a painful, but historically wise decision.

And yet Trump took money away from base daycare to put towards the wall of griftage.
His contempt for those who serve knows no bounds.

Where are the Roit police maintaining order? Washington DC lacks riot police? Lacks intelligence telling shit will go down this weekend? Where are the water canon APC’s?
Where are the sonic disruptors arrays? Why are the police so poorly supported during an obvious motley crew of seditious manics wishing to over throw democracy?

Why are news outlets not calling this what it is. A terrorist attack in the nation capital?

Oh right. Cause it’s good ole christian white men doing the terrorizing and other white christian folks up the ladder saying…“MEH”.

Remarkable how few of them speak out/condemn the behaviour by the PBs, et. al.
Silence=Approval, & it is deafening.

I’m pretty sure at this point we can discard the term ‘Conservative’ to refer to members/Fellow Travelers of the GOP. Given the reality of the Soft Coup we are currentyl undergoing, it is appropriate to hencforth refer to them what they are:
FASCISTS.

Yeah, that chain of Command has to be cosmetic in the future. No untrained civilian or otherwise, should be able to command the country’s military default of office. Fuck that noise for ever more.
