Right-Wing Embrace Of Conspiracy Is 'Mass Radicalization,' Experts Warn
 
Right-Wing Embrace Of Conspiracy Is 'Mass Radicalization,' Experts Warn

Our resident Reich-wing nut jobs have clearly been radicalized by this phenomenon. Reich-wing fake news is all-consuming for their weak minds. Sad little fools.

First sentence

"The widespread embrace of conspiracy and disinformation amounts to a "mass radicalization" of Americans, and increases the risk of right-wing violence, veteran security officials and terrorism researchers warn."

Mass radicalization of AMERICANS it says but apparently they are only concerned with right wing violence. :confused:

Um, yes, dummy, Reich-wing violence is the epidemic. It's getting worse now that #DiaperDon has rightfully lost the election. Dumbfucks are refusing to accept reality.

Always with the name calling, so childish it's makes it hard to actually take you seriously.

Anywho there just peaceful protesters.:)

The right wing media amplified the violence of the summer protests beyond all recognition. And don't forget that much violence was instigated by right wing provocateurs, including 'Umbrella Man,' arsonists, boogaloo boys, and the police themselves.

I will give you just one of the above to digest in more detail:

Umbrella Man: Minneapolis police say 'Umbrella Man' was a white supremacist trying to incite George Floyd rioting
"This was the first fire that set off a string of fires and looting throughout the precinct and the rest of the city," Sgt. Erika Christensen wrote in a search warrant affidavit filed in court this week. "Until the actions of the person your affiant has been calling 'Umbrella Man,' the protests had been relatively peaceful. The actions of this person created an atmosphere of hostility and tension. Your affiant believes that this individual's sole aim was to incite violence."

AND ALL THIS IS YOUR DISTRACTION FROM THE MAIN POINT, THAT IT IS RIGHT WING VOICES OPENLY CALLING FOR COUP OR CIVIL WAR NOW!

NC senator OK with suspending civil liberties in wake of Trump's defeat

Cool. So, next time you fly commercial, you'll just pick some random guy as your pilot, then, right? :rolleyes:

Not an option.

It may be right wing "voices" calling for coup and civil war now.

Just remember all the rhetoric from other people during trumps term. Things like a bloody trump head being held and a certain music star saying "I dream about blowing up the white house".

Whataboutery. The bad argument that the sins of B negate the sins of A.

Sure, just saying both sides do it.

I must insist not to a comparable degree. A few people with assassination fantasies that go viral is not comparable with civil war being on everyone's lips, while the stockpiling of guns and ammo creates long-term shortages.

I heard a dude muse about the necessity of 'killing out' the homosexuals this summer. I don't think you find genocide fantasies on the left, or even revolution talk. The up-against-the-wall violent revolution rhetoric of decades ago has gone away.

Thus I've got a meme text that goes:

The left says "Why can't we all just get along?"
The right says "Why cant we just kill them?"

Right! Remember when those Lefties formed a militia to kidnap and murder a governor? No, wait...
Remember when that disgruntled Hillary supporter mailed pipe bombs to politicians and officials?
No, wait...
Remember when those Dem protesters showed up at a states capital, strapped up and dressed for battle?
No, wait...
Saying "saying both sides do it" is just an attempt to minimise the crazy crap reich-wingers have been up to.

Some data:

Left-wing, right-wing and religious violence all plague the U.S. But in the last decade, right-wing violence has been by far the biggest threat. Trump's FBI Director and DHS Director concur.

Is all right wing violence white supremacy driven?
