It was just too silly and it certainly appeared to be some sort of street theater.
I think that is the first time we saw a group of what appears to be agent provocateurs put forth by the enemy.
I agree with you. The Charlottesville hoaxers were astro-turfers... I’m speaking of the tiki-torch bearing ‘Jews will not replace’ us yelling cretins. They just didn’t seem right (double-entendre intended), at least not like any ‘right-wingers’ I know of. They seemed to step right out of the 1930s and the political dysphoria of that period. It’s like someone asked someone to make believe they were right wingers and the person asked had only 20th century fascism to use as a model... in other words a young person not actually acquainted with 21st century right-wing ideology. These ‘patriot front’ are from the same cloth. How many are federal agents and how many dupes or co opted is anyones guess... all I know is, they aren’t us.
