Could be a hoax — someone wants to be a victim.
But if it’s real, this is another part of the coming Civil War. Just like CNN outing the kid who made the gif.
It’s street justice. Segments of society are going outside the existing governmental framework and trying to “smash” the people who are on the other side politically. This is basically what lynching was. “I think I know who raped that woman. Let’s not wait for the sheriff or the courts. Let’s just hang him.”
CNN found the gif guy? Threaten to expose him to danger.
Doxxing the CNN people so that they can be threatened in turn by the mob?
This woman with her flag hatred? Let’s threaten her family.
This is a breakdown in the social order. It’s not exactly unprecedented, but this is not at all typical for American society. This sort of behavior is indicative of a social contract being torn apart.
This is exactly what the radicals of the 60's, who came to full power in the election of 2008, had in mind.
Their God, Alinsky, and the Cloward-Pivens of their world, expressed in exacting terms by the American Left, epitomized by Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and all those of their ilk, have in mind.
A rending of a social contract.
Our "social contract" is our Constitution and laws. The Left (as well as some who purport to be on the Right) has let us know the US Constitution and the legally passed laws they disagree with are to be ignored.
That is a clear rending of the "social contract". And it is what they have been trying to do since the Sixties.
