You keep bring up this “alt right guys getting paid to have acid thrown in their face” thing.
I didn’t see anyone suggest that each and every “alt right” person out there was getting paid to be there.
Its being reported that one of the main guys who organized the event was an Obama and Occupy movement supporter until November 2016 when he suddenly decided to become a white supremacist. This seems suspicious to a lot of people.
There are also lots of people who were at the event who have expressed their belief that the authorities purposely forced them into a situation where they were ambushed by Antifa. They said they felt like it was a set-up.
Evidence that one of the organizers of the event may not actually be as “alt right” as he claims to be lends credence to the assertions that the Unite the Right rally was a set-up to tarnish the alt right and advance the left politically.
None of that requires people “getting paid to have acid thrown in their faces.”
This is all possible.
But the elephant in the room is that Richard Spencer - the man who coined the phrase alt-right initially - set the event up with this Kessler.
So, for this to be true, Spencer has to be a dupe of the highest order or has been living a public lie for ten years.
An extremely dangerous public lie, I might add, since a lot of people would cheer if he took a bullet at one of these events.
