Summary
Enrique Tarrio, the pardoned former Proud Boys leader, confronted and insulted police officers who defended the Capitol on January 6, calling one a “coward.”
He followed officers Michael Fanone, Harry Dunn, and Aquilino Gonell at a Washington hotel hosting the Principles First summit. The officers denounced his actions and Trump’s mass pardons of January 6 rioters.
The incident followed Tarrio’s recent arrest for assault near the Capitol.
Officers at the summit warned that Trump’s pardons embolden extremists and urged resistance against his political movement.
It’s one of the fascists’ tricks.
You don’t instinctively recognize them as a threat when you hear “Proud Boys” or nerd ass shit like “power level”, “frenworld”, and “Grand Wizard”…
It’s on purpose.
Are you suggesting that the proud boys’ circle jerking is just an inadvertent perk of an otherwise sinister masterplan?! How dastardly!
I’m just saying that even though their beliefs are dumb (in addition to being evil) they’re otherwise relatively smart men in some regards. Also they get a lot of free councel from fascist PACs.
We’re doing ourselves a disfavour by underestimating them imho.
The fascs have a knack for quickly identifying the codes of new means of communication (mass media in the 30s, internet now) and we need to put some extra effort in it as leftist activists.
omg. I never realized how dnd that shit sounds.
Watch a video about South Park Stick of Truth, they made an entire system that I could easily see Christian nationalists missing the satire.
Oh I remember that and the episodes that sorta previewed it somewhat.
