He wants to see suspects hurt. He wants to see VA workers hurt.

He wants to see immigrants hurt. He wants to see women hurt. He wants to see political opponents hurt. He wants to see activists hurt. He wants to see anti-nazi citizens hurt. He wants to see protestors hurt. He wants to see journalists and reporters hurt. etc. etc.

He wants to see EVERYBODY hurt. And he SAYS it, openly, publicly, ALL the TIME.

Free speech rights only apply to nazis airing their learned viewpoints in places like Berkeley.

Or internal google organizational documents.

Does not apply to ESPN journos or pro sports athletes. Special SS snowflakes like drumpf and his backers need a safe space.

Dalton Trumbo related an interesting brush with being labelled 'prematurely antifascist'

in the preface to his Viet Era edition of "Johnny Got His Gun".

Before we entered WWII, he was approached by American bund Lindberg types, who wanted to back publication of the anti war novel. He sized them up as pro german nazis, and reported them to the Feds. The feds sent some representatives around, who seemed much more interested in making Trumbo the subject of an investigation, and who questioned him in a hostile and adversarial way. He learned after FOIA ing his FBI file later that his report about the bunders had earned him the designation "prematurely antifascist".

His comment about the situation was 'it served me right, too.' Needless to say, he refused the bunders permission to republish his work; though he was very much anti-war, he was also very much anti-nazi.

Which is odd because he's the biggest criminal felon the repugs have ever foisted off

onto our nation as a 'leader'.

Sort of a Benito Mussolini type of story, with an American twist.

Just saw Ari Melber's guest on Last Word, Tom Nichols from the Naval War College,

talking about the peril of having normal Americans happy about having high ranking military like Mattis, McMasters, and Kelly in key positions in the gov, so there are some adults in the room in the Exec branch. I agree wholeheartedly. It's like a game's being run on us by pro-fascist power broker sources, to get us to accede to anything, in order to deal with the perils posed by the braindead nazi hairball kandykorn kolored skidmark.

That being said, anything coming from a pro-Horowitz source is garbage in garbage out. Flynn is a virulently antisemitic bircher, no matter how many Jewish neocons his fans dredge up to back his end of things.

They're cripplingly stupid,

and treasonous.

I'm glad you mentioned the proud boys, in the OP and this sub post, Ini.

There was a NY Times article posted here a few days ago, about reich wing fringe groups:
https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=9154976

It mentions that Vice Media founder, Gavin McInnes, a big dRumpf supporter, founded the proud boys:

"The founder of the Proud Boys, Mr. McInnes, 46, a Canadian with a hipster-lumberjack aesthetic, is no stranger to controversy. He helped found Vice Media and edited its edgy magazine before leaving in 2007 over differences with his partners. In one episode that drew his colleagues’ ire, he told The New York Times in 2003, “I love being white.”

Mr. McInnes has seemed to find sophomoric pleasure in offending liberals, feminists, “beta male culture” and transgender people. His work is often inflected with a tone of crass, satirical bigotry that leaves him just enough room to declare it all a joke. While Mr. McInnes insists that the Proud Boys are “are a normal fraternal organization like the Shriners,” the sentiments that unify its members are often tinged with disrespect for nonwhite culture."
...

"Some groups like the Proud Boys have initiation rituals that include violent hazing and require an oath of fealty to Western culture. Their followers thrive on hyper-masculinity and celebrate when one of their brethren hits a leftist agitator. They mock Islam and purport to be soldiers against a “war on Whites,” while being mindful not to embrace overt white supremacy. Roger J. Stone Jr., a longtime associate of Mr. Trump’s, has taken the Proud Boy oath.

The Alt-Knights were initially conceived as a paramilitary wing of the Proud Boys, designed to provide protection for audiences listening to conservative speakers like Ann Coulter and Milo Yiannopoulos, whose public events have been canceled because of threats of violence."


I know McInnes and his Vice partners 'split up' 10 years ago, but I'd take Vice's reporting about 'fears of a surge in lefty violence' with a grain of salt. Because they've had ample opportunity to do a story covering the nazi goon squad aims and actions of the guy with whom they had an acrimonious split, but instead theychose to do a story that seems to dovetail nicely with McInnes' fantasy that his people are about 'defending themselves' against the violent left, and are completely 'justified' by the existence of a violent leftist threat.

A dRumpfenfuhrer fan calling the opposition 'commies' is rich, to say the least.

I see this nazi turd is hooked into the Vice founder. I never trusted Vice, good to see it confirmed.

Jesse's a bircher. Not too hard to spot.

"The New American, the online outlet of the John Birch Society, published an interview yesterday between two prominent attendees of last month’s anti-immigrant rally in DC, Jesse Lee Peterson and Stephen Broden.

Peterson, who calls himself a “proud member” of the John Birch Society, told Broden that the American dream is “fading” ..."
