Burn, loot and pillage.

Don't you remember one MSM person saying it was all "peaceful" while there was a fire raging in the background ?

Or BLM setting a building on fire with people inside ?

It was all "alright" by the left's standards.
Boy I didn't see that coming.

I supported the peaceful protests, I never would condone the rioters that took advantage destroying neighborhoods.

All right, then. "If you don't like the government then vote them out" isn't the only available course of action. People can also take to the streets and protest (all day, every freakin' day, according to some people.)

When "Summer of Love 2" launches this coming summer a different tune will be sung, you can be assured of that.

Funny that China had a multi billion dollar program that influenced BLM rioters, had a full on disinformation campaign on socials, to instigate BLM rioters and other leftwing causes. Big part of the program was to constantly tell people how racist this country is. Sound familiar?

It was called "Spamouflage" or "Dragonbridge".

And not a peep from the Dems about it! They were duped by the CCP!

Quote:
Known as “Spamouflage” or “Dragonbridge,” the network’s hundreds of thousands of accounts spread across every major social media platform have not only harassed Americans who have criticized the Chinese Communist Party, but have also sought to discredit US politicians, disparage American companies at odds with China’s interests and hijack online conversations around the globe that could portray the CCP in a negative light.

Private researchers have tracked the network since its discovery more than four years ago, but only in recent months have federal prosecutors and Facebook’s parent company Meta publicly concluded that the operation has ties to Chinese police.

Meta announced in August it had taken down a cluster of nearly 8,000 accounts attributed to this group in the second quarter of 2023 alone. Google, which owns YouTube, told CNN it had shut down more than 100,000 associated accounts in recent years, while X, formerly known as Twitter, has blocked hundreds of thousands of China “state-backed” or “state-linked” accounts, according to company blogs.

Well you only talked about "far right".
Why not drop the "right" and "left" and just say extremists because they exist on both sides.

Most of us are around the center and we make up the majority.
Why not join forces to fight against extremism on both sides ?

Isn't it amazing how the world and sick woke folk want to portray Irish and other such white europeans as 'racist' for daring to speak out in defense of their culture and country? These are the same delusional folks that deliberately hide the vile crimes committed by 'migrants' (more like parasites) and deny any link to criminal activity and 'migrants' (parasites).
