Unmasked: America’s Real Fascists
American Spectator ^ | June 27, 2018 | Jeffrey Lord

They come in all different disguises.

* Protesters disrupting the Mexican restaurant meal of a Cabinet Secretary, forcing her to leave.

* The owner of an innocent-sounding “Red Hen” restaurant in Lexington, Virginia boasting that she refused to serve the presidential press secretary Sarah Sanders and asked her to leave. Sanders quite politely did. Now we learn from Sanders’ Dad, Governor Mike Huckabee, that when Sanders did as requested and went to another nearby restaurant — the angry Red Hen owner followed and kept harassing her. (Note: At press time I had heard that Sanders herself was present at another restaurant when harassed again by the owner of the Red Hen. This was later clarified. So to update correctly: Sanders and husband went home after the incident at the Red Hen, but the family with her stayed and it is they who were harassed a second time, not Sanders.)

* A Florida Democratic Party activist threatened Republican Congressman Brian Mast’s children, saying to one of the Congressman’s interns: “If you are going to separate kids at the border, I’m going to kill his kids.” News reports note that the man had called the Congressman’s office 478 times.

* Hostile students physically assaulting a speaker at Middlebury College, giving an accompanying college official a concussion.

* Hooded Antifa members, “armed with sticks and shields and clad in shin pads and gloves” (per the Washington Post), rampaging through the streets of Berkeley to attack a peaceful rally. Five people were assaulted.

* Media Matters and its constant campaigns to bully advertisers into removing conservative X from the nation’s television screen or radio air waves, warning that advertisers will get “burned” if they don’t comply.

I heard one outraged person say, how dare she have Mexican food. This particular commentator said, with problems at the Mexican border, how dare Neilson(sp?) be eating Mexican food.

That’s how the leftist mind works.

We are heading into dangerous territory. They’ve been preparing themselves for violence for a long time now. The fight over a new supreme court judge may put them over the edge.

The German Brown Shirts and the Nazi Black Shirts were trained hoodlums who were likely paid, like the SEIU Purple Shirts, to threaten and beat up their political adversaries. The difference between those three groups and what is described in the article is that the people doing the intimidating and water glass throwing are not, most likely, part of any organization that trains them to do these things. They are individual pollical activists who feel motivated and empowered to do these things. I can’t remember who said it, but he opined that in any likely mob there were only a handful who would be the first to pick up the rock and throw it. The others required, some one peer to pick up a rock, some two peers to pick up a rock. But once the rocks started flying, many, many more would willingly join the mob. Therein lies the danger with these “crowd-sourced” Nazis.

Jorden Peterson said, “Some people go through life thinking they are good people. Then, a riot starts and they break windows and steal sneakers. It turns out they were never good people. They were just people who had never been in a situation where they could be bad with impunity.”

In these examples, if we don’t stop them soon...if the Democratic party doesn’t stop them soon, lie the seeds of anarchy. This is why Maxine Waters and her ilk need to be publicly punished.

Unmasked: America’s Real Fascists.

I suppose that depends of which definition you subscribe to.
I choose to keep the original definition, rather than the version that children of all ages have corrupted it to.

Even this threads refers (or should) to the violent, most ignorant and useless members of the bottom of the kakistocracy who are loud societal dead weight, thugs and anarchists, essentially, and should be arrested an jailed at every opportunity.

Not even close to a comprehensive list, just the more recent and high profile stuff. For starters one could add:

-Protesters in Berkeley rioting and blockading a venue to prevent speeches (and not even very controversial speeches at that).

-Tearing down of statues of historic figures, literally and figuratively, because their actions and beliefs in their historic context do not conform with the standards of today’s mores. This was an opportunity to use those landmarks to educate and inform - imagine the ability to see a statue and immediately stream to your phone a podcast from any one of scores of commentators to learn about it. Instead the left would rather blot it out as if it never existed, like the Taliban did to the Buddhist of Bamiyam carvings in Afghanistan.

Dangerous for whom?

The overwhelming number of real American citizens (not CINOs) are at the point where they would enjoy the opportunity to physically fight back.

The closest we have come to fascism in the U.S. during my long lifetime is Barack Hussein (see my tag line)

Yes and when a baker and florist refused to cater to gay weddings the left got unhinged but when a restaurant throws out customers for political reasons that’s AOK.

It could be dangerous for any of us. Even those of us who carry & are aware of possible danger. Just like the jihadis, you never know when a libtard will ‘explode’ in your face.

I hear that pistols can have shotgun shells in them

Concealed carry permits for all trump staffers and appointees

a few incidents with deadly force involved will have most of these ‘protestors’ melt away like slugs in sunshine.

Leftist activist Dan Savage tweets out a call for a “…. march on Fox News HQ — all of this hateful propaganda is being broadcast from an office building in midtown Manhattan. Activists surrounded & shut down an ICE office in Portland. The same can and should be done to Fox News in NYC.”

* Actor Peter Fonda tweets out that someone should “rip Barron Trump from his mother’s arms and put him in a cage with pedophiles.”

Liberal 'cultural leaders' are whipping up their thugs - did you see the kid who had a drink thrown in his face and his MAGA hat stolen?

Yep. At least they caught him & I assume will prosecute him. In places like Portlandia, the police do nothing to help those on ‘our’ side, & go out of their way to enable the antifa-types. Strange times we’re living in.
