Just Boogaloo losers and white nats



These right wing chuds on 4chan and various gamer platforms who are encouraging each other to go to demos and initiate violence should be prosecuted for organized criminal conspiracy. No leftists are encouraging this. No BLM folks are. None. Just Boogaloo losers and white nats




Watch the #MAGANight Nazi walk by the reporter and flash the “white power” sign. These are Trump’s “very fine people” doing the looting. #protests #GeorgeFloyd


Disrupt and destroy is the name of the MAGA game, it makes sense. Seeing the world burn and blame it on the 'angry black man' is something that Trump will use to very divisive effect over the next few days. The race war is here and the Nazi's are burning shit down. Surprise! 👀

organizations and groups responsible, to balance out the noise coming from AG Barr and the RW. Until we have this, they are owning the narrative. (It's very dangerous that they've had several days now to run with this ANTIFA and Leftist stuff.)

The FBI should be involved. Two good reasons for this, right off the top of my head:

1. A lot of the boogers are crossing state lines to get involved. That's a big no-no.

2. The white supremacy organizations who are planning (and funding) the mayhem and destruction are - straight up - terrorist groups.

The stereotypical narrative that we would be led to believe is that the disaffected poor are looting and then setting things on fire for kicks. Bonus points if you can be convinced it's all black people who are doing this.

There is video after video of white people, mostly men, running around smashing windows to get looting started. There are first hand accounts from witnesses who see trucks running around with OOS plates or no plates, filled with white men who start shit and then blaze off, accounts of witnesses who see people show up with 'incendiary devices' (molotov cocktails) that set things alight very quickly while the perpetrators flee, leaving the protestors and bystanders to take the blame.

I'm not saying no protestors ever get pulled into the looting and burning, but I am saying that I don't think the majority of this mayhem, particularly at night, is perpetrated by protestors.

There are several groups involved here, sometimes overlapping: people who are upset and genuinely out to march to show they want justice and change. They peacefully march and then go home. There are those in that same group who try to peacefully march and get roughed up by police, some plainclothes who pretend to be protestors starting shit (with armbands so the cops know which people to leave alone) and some in uniform. The police BS is old hat. It's planned. It's disgusting.

Then there are the protestors who do occasionally go overboard - for example, flipping and burning a car in reaction to having a dark version of Legolas crash their party, or chasing down the idiot who showed up with a MAGA cap. I'm sure there are other examples, but my point is there seems to be provocation involved.

Finally there are those who show up to purposely destroy as much property as possible, using the protestors as cover. Cointelpro had it down to an art in the sixties, but it isn't Uncle Sam trying to discredit the peaceniks and hippies this time around. Sure, there are some individual psycho-losers here and there who see an opportunity for street theater. But most of it is the well organized, well planned, and completely intentional war strategy of terrorist groups. This is white supremacists who are committing insurrection and fomenting race war.

This isn't something they are trying to do. They've already started the war. It is underway right now. To play into their hands by letting someone sell you the convenient, often racist narrative that is currently developing suits their aims just fine. In fact, they are counting on it.

Would you mind if I copied and posted to my Facebook? I think this information needs to go to as broad an audience as possible.

...FBI, ATF, and DHS are involved in the Chicago investigation.
They also both said there were credible theories but they can't say anything right now.
Then, both said when the time is right, they'd let everyone know what they learned.
The tone struck me as "they've already figured it out.". Perhaps not, but there was a certitude in their saying they knew it was planned & choreographed.
They also mentioned security footage, but no details.

But it's been going on for at least 5-6 days for me. If you figure it out or get an answer, let me know.

I watched from my apartment a group of black males start a bonfire in the intersection below my apartment last night and fuel it with furniture removed from an office across the street. Many black males smashed windows all over downtown Raleigh last night. Local TV has one black male on video taking a baseball bat to the windows of the restaurant on the ground floor of the Marriott Hotel near the convention center.

It's not all white nationalists. At least not here in downtown Raleigh last night.

There were 12 arrests last night and the police chief (an African American woman) promised PD will be working towards more during the press conference she held with the mayor (a white woman) this morning.
