“PITCAVAGE: The militia movement is an anti-government extremist movement”

BULLFEATHERS!! We are NOT anti-government. We are anti CORRUPT government. The distortions and fake information get worse from there.

>>ANTIFA STANDS FOR ANTI FIRST AMENDMENT.<<

I have been saying that any mention of them should ALWAYS be “the ironically named antifa.”

PITCAVAGE: Well, they're essentially, I mean, to disarm the American people, to round people up and put them in camps. In one way - directly or indirectly, they all allude to common militia movement conspiracy theories. So the orders are never actually going to be handed down that they will refuse to obey because those conspiracy theories are basically fantasy.

"Fantasy"?!?! This guy is completely ignorant of history, especially that of communism/socialism in the 20th Century. Over a 100 million people died at the hands of government and during the communist/socialist takeover, guns were confiscated from the citizens and they were basically sheep for the slaughter.

Mark Pitcavage of the Anti-Defamation League says the militia movement has created a conspiracy theory about the anti-fascist protesters, saying they're domestic terrorists backed by George Soros.

Good old fatboy Pitcavage. I remember him from the 1990's. This Michael-Moore-Wannabe (in every way) launched a series of 'analysis and predictions', none of which were true or materialized.

So he trots his sweaty, corpulent, flabby face out again, spewing the same old bullshit.

How tiresome.

Have another McDonalds, fat boy.

Oh, and nice forehead crater. Catching meteors again?

Hate speech from tax funded NPR.

Yet never de-funded. What the hell is it going to take to get National Communist Radio off the dole?

“Also among the crowd were men in camouflage, heavily armed, some carrying assault-style rifles.”

Bull!

Show me just one picture of proof.

Tom Cole (R.OK) as chair of the House Appropriations is probably the reason NPR still gets funded. Yeah, there are others but he’s the key.

He vaguely resembles that large purple character McDonald’s used to have that represented milkshakes.

PITCAVAGE: Well, they're not showing up at left-wing events to protect the free speech of people from the left. They're only concerned about, quote, unquote, "free speech" from people on the right. It's kind of important to point out. So it's not like they are free-speech crusaders.

No, no, they're not pro-slavery, just pro-slavery for whites. Wow this guy is a giant pantload of disinformation. Especially the part where the antiFreeSpeech folks only show up masked, wearing all black and carrying weapons for "self protection".

Typical liberal lies.

They take;
Nazis,
KKK,
Militia,
Conservatives,
Republicans,

and conflate them into a supposed cohesive and indistinguishable group.

Conservatives need to make clear that the Nazis and the KKK are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Democrat Party.

So, the militias are anti government and the antifas are anti government but they’re always fighting. How does that compute?

There was a picture of a Militia group armed with ARs walking down a street. They came from another state (uninvited - a bad move). They were asked to leave and they did about 1 PM.

Deep investigation of the "militias." Not a word about the brownshirt thugs. Yet it was the brownshirts who started the trouble.

More "objective journalism" from the New Propaganda Reich.

You have violent mobs (antifa) attacking peaceful demonstrators. The police, nor the local government does anything to stop it. That’s when the militias come in. They’re keeping the peace when corrupt govt finds it politically convenient to stoke violence. That’s what they’re supposed to do morons. If you leftwing assholes don’t want militias involved, then order the police to do their jobs. NPR is an echo chamber for leftists.
