You are *not* surprised.

I thought this would be more his style.

Re: Republicans have to Cheat to Win
This is hilarious.

...says the guy speaking for The Rebel, the far-right Canadian media group that was represented at the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville.
Hilarious, indeed.
That said, I'd agree. (No, seriously.) So far, I'm not sure they've really behaved like a bunch of racists.

EAllusion wrote:So many layers of false equivalence. Wanting George W. Bush to stand trial in international court having engaged in actual war crimes is not the same thing for wanting to lock up Dianne Feinstein on a false pretext because you don't like her role in opposition to confirming Bret Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. Moreover, the calls to subject George W. Bush to the same standards as other war criminals were relatively muted comparison to what is currently occurring on the right. By all means, feel free to link some examples of Obama standing over 10's of thousands of regular Democrats shouting "lock him up" in reference to George W. Bush while Democratic polling shows broad support for jailing political enemies.
If you're gonna play this game, you could've just done it with Trump. Democrats are hypocrites because they say it's bad to want to lock up their leaders without legitimate basis, but then they turn around and support the Mueller witch-hunt against Trump. There's nothing that could possibly distinguish these two things. Amiright?
If anyone wants a demonstration of an extremist Leftist position this is it. There you go. Now if we only had a name to attach to it...
It's funny how huge the blindspot is for the Left. I suspect they actually know what they're saying and the tactic they're using, but what are you going to do? Just shrug and roll over? I say, "NAY!" We must #resistlibertarianleftists #anarchist #libertariansocialism !

Re: Republicans have to Cheat to Win
The Proud Boys are a hapdash group of alt-rightists formed and led by people with extensive white supremacist connections. They attract the assorted folks and biogtries associated with the alt-right, so one the one hand you might find a local group of gamergater types who would struggle to run a mile doing hilarious gang beat-downs to join the group and on the other, armed skinheads looking to crack heads at explicit white supremacist gatherings. It's how they roll. As such, not every single Proud Boy is racist, but Proud Boys collectively are up to their eyeballs in hardcore racism.

I had to google this one. Apparently, it is a violent far-right group that likes to shout, "I like beer" to show their support for Brett Kavanaugh while they are assaulting people on the street.
Don't do it, kids. Stay off the Kavanaugh.

George W. Bush is only immune from war crimes prosecution because he was president of the country with the most powerful military on Earth. That's the only reason. He's been condemned as a war criminal for his role in overseeing a torture regime by a large number of human rights organizations. This isn't even particularly debatable in terms of international treaties the US is party to. Defining this as "extremism" sort of goes to the point of how loose and ill-defined you are with the term. In what sense?
Of course, this is only the view of hardcore leftists like *check notes* the Koch-funded CATO Institute:

Who, as we all know, aren't real libertarians.

Reading, Doc. That's how I knew who they were. You gotta keep up, man.

What's the left's equivalent to Operation Veritas? Or the PP videos?
The right makes their own case against themselves. Who needs to fake one?
