The right wing disinformation is purposeful. They want them lines muddied and blurred and quite honestly since they believe they’re own bullsht so much they don’t listen to reality. The reality is as you say: antifa (largely an invention of imagination by right wingers) and anarchists have nothing to do with Democrats. What IS real is that right wing white supremacist groups are creating violence for the purposes of creating propaganda to show crumbling American society. The fascists on here are just pushing that line. |
correct! |
And if you were to listen to nothing but conservative media you'd think that half of Portland has burned to the ground, every store has been looted, and everything is in a complete shambles when in fact 99% of the activity has been constrained to just a few blocks and most Portlanders are completely unaffected and go on about their daily lives just like anyone else does. |

That has nothing at all to do with Portland. Who threw Molotov cocktails and firebombs? Who set police precincts on fire? Who threw rocks at police? None of those cretins needed guns to wreak absolute havoc and destruction, and your refusal to acknowledge these FACTS is incredibly disingenuous.

Quite often, the molotov cocktails and firebombs and targeting of police precincts and attacks, ambushes and killings were the work of Boogaloo Bois operating under cover of "Antifa." https://sfist.com/2021/06/07/alleged-santa-cruz-boogaloo-militia-planned-war-on-police-disguising-themselves-as-antifa/ |
Well, certainly - a leftist source will absolutely tell you that. Please. Amazing how DCUM's finest will keep defending antifa/anarchists and their violent tactics. |
What’s amazing is that multiple sources have shown this and you keep thinking that it’s “leftist” sources. Happy to burst your bubble here but Ngo is a POS, as are the right wing agitators. |
So then you're calling Ted Wheeler a liar when he (correctly) called out antifa in Portland? Not to mention *these* sources? https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/portland-mayor-blames-antifa-anarchists-following-nye-riot/ar-BB1cpQJM https://jonathanturley.org/2021/04/25/portland-mayor-belatedly-condemns-anarchists-but-stops-short-of-condemning-antifa/comment-page-2/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/destructive-protests-by-anarchists-and-extremists-signal-divided-left-as-biden-administration-begins/2021/01/23/70f93610-5d8c-11eb-a976-bad6431e03e2_story.html https://www.latimes.com/world-nation/story/2020-11-16/portland-protests-anarchists-backlash https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-biden-inauguration-portland-prote-idUSKBN29Q0H9 https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/usa-antifa-profile/ |

Jonathan Turley, LOL.
And yes, Wheeler is a moron. |
What is sad is that you probably don't think you live in an information bubble or believe in conspiracy theories, not like those Trumpers. Do you really expect any rational person to believe that the same rightwing groups that struggle to get more than a couple hundred people in the same place at the same time attacked police and besieged a federal courthouse for weeks? |
Not the same groups, no. Different right wingers. Different Republicans. Ones who specifically come to cause violence and mayhem to film for the propagandizing of empty fields such as yours, those empty fields that enjoy a little frisson of violence and who delight in toxic masculinity. You watch the videos. You believe the message. You should know by now that the right wing agitators are having the time of their lives and you are having the time of yours when you watch their productions. |
In Minneapolis, it was the white nationalists who did those things. https://www.startribune.com/police-umbrella-man-was-a-white-supremacist-trying-to-incite-floyd-rioting/571932272/ Same with Kenosha: https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2021/01/14/kyle-rittenhouse-proud-boys-bar/ Shall I go on? It is true in just about every instance. |
