This is impossible. Trump and all his cronies have been kicked off social media. Someone has to explain how they caused this.

Andy Ngo is pretty well-known. Yes, many on the left consider him a fraud. They also accuse him of editing videos in a way that it makes the right look better. I don’t know, he’s out there getting footage and he often does get punched or otherwise attacked. he’s not perfect, but i like him.glennds wrote: ↑Sun Jan 10, 2021 5:58 pmApparently it's being reported by a guy who has written a book about....

Vinny, I can't blame you for what you read.vnatale wrote: ↑Sun Jan 10, 2021 6:57 pm The Portland-based newspaper Willamette Week stated that "it is increasingly clear he is coordinating his movements and his message with right-wing groups".[65] Bernstein reported that "[Ngo]'s literal brand is that anti-fascists are violent and loathe him", adding that he "has been building to a dramatic confrontation with the Portland far left for months, his star rising along with the severity of the encounters." Bernstein stated that Ngo "is willing to make himself the story and to stream himself doing it. He proceeds from a worldview and seeks to confirm it, without asking to what degree his coverage becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy", pointing out that Ngo even proposed going to "a far-left hangout" during the writing of the profile piece.[3]

I lived 25 years in Portland. The Willamette Week is pure propaganda. The Oregonian only slightly less so. I wish I could take you through a tour downtown from 5 years ago and then again today. Even in 2013, when I left, Antifa was gaining momentum. It would be a rare day you could walk downtown without seeing the benighted throwing shit and yelling 'fuck the police'. I would probably be a little more condemnatory than Ngo is, but he is certainly not exaggerating.

Several media outlets, including The Oregonian and The Rolling Stone have been critical...
THIS is what libertarian conservatives are up against. The Progressive Left has, in fact, declared war on the American people, and it's our tax dollars that are being used to fund it.“Go to the White House & throw Molotov cocktails...”
“Even if Biden wins, we go for all the Republican voters, Homeland Security will take their children away…”

if the republicans purge the "trump supporters" or the "new populism" the republican party is dead nobody outside of bill Kristol's dinner party friends want the neocons back....
The Republicans who turned Judas should get all the patriots political energy directed against them. I'd rather have dems take 100% of public office than see another spineless boot licking disloyal repuke talk about "our values". They act like their voters and dems have some kind of shared values.

Tulsi Gabbard made the point the other day that a lot of what the GOP did in congress was just for show. The party might die. Something similar will replace it, and maybe something better.
For starters, how about freedom from harassment, from being shouted at in airports, from having their cars blocked on the streets of Portland. The extreme minority on both sides is ruining life for everyone else.I'd rather have dems take 100% of public office than see another spineless boot licking disloyal repuke talk about "our values".

Actually, it's 33% who believe that "fraud helped Joe Biden win the election", per SomeDude's post.
I don't see much value in screaming at people at an airport, but all the repukes who sided with the fraud should lose their primaries and general elections.dualstow wrote: ↑Wed Jan 13, 2021 7:20 am
You mean like the people who screamed at Lindsey Graham at the airport? They seem like terrible human beings to me, the other side of antifa, and together with antifa they should be deported before they bring hell on earth to regular Americans.For starters, how about freedom from harassment, from being shouted at in airports, from having their cars blocked on the streets of Portland.

Shouting at people at an airport isn't likely to achieve any positive results, but it's been the tactic of the left for a long time, as well as threats of harm to politicians and their families. It's basically the Maxine Waters doctrine. And they are running everything now so maybe she is on to something with it.
The lefties do it to their enemies though, not traitors, because lefties never betray their side. They don't care what crimes someone commits or how personally repugnant they are, they only care about loyalty.
These people are yelling at traitors. You basically never see this from the right against the left because for the most part we look at them as misguided children or so utterly evil at the top that what's the point of confronting them? Traitors are way worse than your enemy so the vitriol is understandable.
Ohhh I forgot, Graham and Romney and the rest supported Biden fraudulent coronation because that's our values now.

I just happen to see this in the local news https://www.deseret.com/utah/2021/1/7/2 ... r-sullivan.
A Utah native who supports BLM claimed to be documenting the protest activity but is seen in the recordings “kicking vehicles and threatening drivers” and directing protesters to block intersections.
I'll have to do some more research, but would be an interesting development if there are other people associated with left-wing organizations such as Insurgence USA (antifa) or BLM that incited violence at the capitol.
