The next American Civil War is one gunshot away in Michigan right now

Awesome article John. Thanks for reposting. Basically for profit MLM style propaganda sites. Feels exactly right.

If you start a militia and that guy stars three more militias, you’ll get a cut of...Amway meets John Bitch Wociety meets NRA with a splash of foreign agitators.

Tip of the cap to the thread title. It's just a shot away.

This is without question the worst state in the nation.

The citizens aren't going to do a fucking thing.

There is exactly zero chance Trump doesnt tweet his support to the militiatards and then mysteriously roll back the comment once the dow sinks 2000 points in an hour.

There are good people on both sides.

You do realize Antifa was fighting against white supremacists thus if you think he was referring to the white supremacists as good people then he was also calling Antifa good people? The other explanation would be the good people he was talking about were the other peaceful protesters that were there that day from both sides. That wouldn’t be much of a story though now would it? So We’ll go with Trump believes Antifa and white supremists are a bunch of good people instead.

A bunch of neo-Nazis and other violent racist authoritarian thugs held a rally. Many different kinds of people came to counter-protest. One of the thugs murdered someone. When asked to comment, Trump said there are fine people on both sides. There's no doubt about what that meant.

Antifa are too far left for me but there's no comparison with the hate groups they went there to oppose. False equivalence bullshit.

the shilling is getting out of control, you can't honestly believe this, right?

[ErickAA]

I would say Antifa/Proud Boys are pretty good comps. Both of them actually accomplish very little of note, and their main utility is to be foils to rile up the other side and to cosplay against each other.

[sonatine]

we know you would say that.

its one of the main reasons we make fun of you so much.

[blake]

two points:

1) good people would not march side-by-side with guys in actual nazi outfits chanting "jews will not replace us." i think when you see that, you gtfo of the march. also, any comparison between nazis and those fighting nazis is lol.

2) in fairness, trump's kind of dumb and was completely winging his "both sides" comment and likely gave it no thought at all. i don't think he was actually trying to suggest nazis are good people. it's also probable that he had no idea who was marching there.

[sonatine]

trump's kind of dumb

Armed Rebellion?

All i've seen is 3 pot bellied neck-beards with semi-auto rifles....the rest of the protest armed with smart phones, just a few hundred there tops

btw, this touches on why almost all state capitals are in smaller cities away from the population centers---the state legislatures don't want it made easy for mass protests

Correct.

A few idiots do something stupid, and it's a perfect opportunity for the media to frame it as Trump's fault for causing an armed rebellion.

He is a contributing factor.

Let a few hundred armed black protesters enter a Republican-controlled statehouse in the south and start shouting at everyone. I'm sure it would end up just the same way.

Here's the full video that for some reason the left media doesn't ever seem to want to replay. At the two minute mark he says he's not talking about the neo-nazis and white nationals and that they should be condemned totally. Come on man, don't put me in a position that I have to defend this orange retard. I can't understand why the left has to make shit up, this dude gives endless material that doesn't need to be spun. If the left would stick to the facts about what the guy says they still would get across the point that he's an unfit retard but also wouldn't have as many credibility issues.

i could be wrong but i don't think that was the original "both sides" speech

Maybe or maybe it just seems that way because they never play the full clip.
