SOURCE10/ Reducing what& #39;s happening now to one tweet kills nuances. For instance, there& #39;s no evidence anarchists are looting; organized criminals are. Trumpists are causing violence. Anarchists "riot" with fireworks. Different groups cause different harms. https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2020/06/04/stop-blaming-everything-bad-anarchists/">https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2...
SOURCE11/ I& #39;m with the overwhelming majority of Americans who think anyone dressed all in black at 1AM tossing fireworks at a courthouse is doing *nothing* productive and should go home. This is not the feed that& #39;s going to celebrate pointless, non-productive, anti-fed *LARPing*.
SOURCE12/ Just as there are many peaceful Trumpists, some peaceful Proud Boys (I think?), and Boogaloo Bois who support a violent ideology without acting on it (but screw them, still?), there are anarchists who are philosophical about it. Totally peaceful. I don& #39;t want that lost.
SOURCE13/ WSJ: "What has emerged from the protestsâand in criminal chargesâis a diffuse collection of...self-styled anarchists and opportunists, lone actors and clusters of alleged extremist cells, with a range of allegiances, interests and motivations." https://www.wsj.com/articles/lone-wolves-self-styled-anarchists-the-disparate-actors-accused-of-protest-violence-11591608601">https://www.wsj.com/articles/...
SOURCE14/ SAN JOSE MERCURY NEWS: "Those accused [by the FBI and/or local authorities] of breaking the law during the liberal city& #39;s nightly rallies don& #39;t neatly fit into President Donald Trump& #39;s depiction of protesters as & #39;anarchists and agitators.& #39;" https://www.mercurynews.com/2020/07/30/anarchists-and-antifa-not-according-to-the-data/">https://www.mercurynews.com/2020/07/3...
SOURCE15/ As the SAN JOSE MERCURY NEWS details, the overwhelming majority of arrests have *nothing* to do with "rioting, looting, and violence"âand it& #39;s in these *minor* arrests (that often lead to people just being released later on, or simply fined) that we find BLM protesters.
SOURCE16/ As detailed in this excerpt from PROOF OF CORRUPTION published by Macmillan, there& #39;s a whole category of person I haven& #39;t even mentioned yet, a group responsible for *much* of the criminally charged violence related to the protests: the *police*. https://read.macmillan.com/lp/proof-of-corruption-floyd/">https://read.macmillan.com/lp/proof-...
CONCLUSION/ What& #39;s going on at the protests is confusing. If you were going to focus on VIOLENCE, you& #39;d look at the police, militias, and right-wing agitators. If you were focused on LOOTING, you& #39;d look at organized crime. And if you focused on DISORDER, you& #39;d look at anarchists.
NOTE/ We know the FBI& #39;s position on all of this from (a) internal threat assessments reported on by major media after individual events in D.C., Portland, Seattle, and elsewhere; (b) federal arrest records; and (c) on-scene major-media reports.
All of it tells us Trump is lying.
