That’s the big reason to stay away from such organized events: The people organizing them are lately most often agitators and provocateurs. They will put you on the front lines after they’ve menaced and threatened various members of the crowd, where you’ll get beat on by them and their friends or by the cops (or both).
Some of these people are Deep Swamp infiltrators, agents, agitators and provocateurs, so yeah be careful.
The only reason these people can get away with these choreographed hoaxes is because of the total corruption of Amerikan courts, judges, prosecutors and law enforcement.
There were about 200,000 Trump supporters at the rally on Jan 6. The vast majority of them never went near the Capitol building. The people who entered the Capitol were either agents provocateurs or useful idiots. The punishments being given to the useful idiots is way out of proportion with their actual “crimes” but they hurt the MAGA movement in general and President Trump in particular.
