Their goal is only to gain disruption, attention and always to divert the reports away from and undermine any legitimate social protest.
Their ideology has nothing to do with "the left" and is more aligned to the philosophy and deep history of right wing hate,fear and violence mongering. This is not"far left" but "anti left."

The MSM keeps tying the "left" to these anti left assholes, and it is categorically slanderous to ALL on the left side of spectrum, all who believe in representative democracy ... a democracy which even the elected Republicans now seem hellbent on destroying by any means.
