The militias who pissed on the floor of and smeared shit on the walls of the U.S. Capitol are planning to return to do worse on January 19-20. They're talking about it on all the usual sites. There you go, @FBI

There seems to be a split happening right now lol

Perhaps six weeks before, I had watched a group of white supremacists rush a Jewish lawmaker, back him up against a pillar, spit on him, scream "JEW" in his face, and punch an aide before I tracked them to Stormfront where they threatened to return with weapons.
My partner, another journalist, took the video in this story (not sure why it kept getting credited to San Diego CityBeat, as the only people who got footage was us and the Southwestern Sun.)

I was gravely concerned by the rhetoric and violence I had witnessed, and so sent this footage to every contact I had at every news network and begged them to air it and show the sort of violence taking shape in the San Diego Tea Party and likely elsewhere. They threatened us too

Were it not for the excellent people quietly running interference with what I have come to call "proactive measures" -- brigading and mass reporting groups fomenting violence, exposing bad actors, causing or widening rifts -- this would have been way worse

These were mostly just volunteers, people who saw the danger and are deeply concerned for our future. They infiltrated violent groups both online and in person, worked their way into trusted positions, and then exposed them all. They worked together to destroy Nazi solidarity.
They fucked them up but good. And that's something everybody can do if you want to fight radicalized, gibbering hatemongers who all feed off one another and off attention from the public at large. Proactive measures are where it's at. This is what war looks like now.

It doesn't need to be successful to be damaging. But it is very real

Why the fuck would @nbcsandiego interview this disinformation purveyor? He's the one who started the "yellow vests" in La Mesa. He's an open eugenicist who pushes corrosive disinformation every chance he gets. What is wrong with you?

This is the same person. You're normalizing eugenics. DO YOUR RESEARCH. washingtonpost.com/politics/coron…
This man tried to doxx me because he didn't like what I had to say. He posted what he thought were personal details of my life, up to and including my address. He is no friend to journalism nor free speech. That his intel is garbage is irrelevant; the intent was there.

Yep. They've been hiding and nurturing their grievances in plain sight, and recruiting away with open signaling (like👌) as they gaslight the public (like arguing "it's the circle game" or "the number 3") and abetted by media credulity, normalization, and open denial.
Easy to call people like me crazy when we're talking about eugenics and seemingly meaningless strings of numbers (1488 etc.) because that is what the signaling and gaslighting is intended to do -- smear those raising alarm bells as biased or batshit. It's an old, old tactic.
It's been complicated by the enormous number of grifters who have already styled themselves experts on just this, who make sweeping pronouncements and claim insider knowledge where none exists, which is one of the reasons I work hard to cite all my sources and own my mistakes
