Deplorable.

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

Ah, just another Basket of Deplorables^TM at work folks.

[SUSAN CRUSHBONE]

guys you have to calmly debate them on their terms or you're worse than they are uwu

[Associate Justice PiT]

     What they did was certainly horrible, but I will note the key word here is "dozens". This is (thankfully) not a particularly large movement.

[Green Line]

Love Trumps Hate.

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

That fact that Richard Spencer was there too is just the icing on the cake.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Almost as scary as the time you guys almost burnt young Republican staffers alive!

[Green Line]

All lives matter, not just white lives.  This is wrong.

All the "Don't Tread on Me" losers started coming out of the woodworks around here recently. There's still hundreds of roads, buildings, and monuments named after Lee across the state, so they're gonna have to start holding a lot of these soon.

Do you not remember 2010?

VA rejected their kind last November.

It's very telling that you feel the need to bring this up now.

I mean, Blue3 posts fake news every single day so I feel the need to remind the other side of a very real and very frightening incident that they like to pretend never happened.

Tell me, Tony: should I be set on fire?

What "other side"? You mean these people are "your side"?

[Adam Griffin]

Sanchez is a reformed White Nationalist, guys: instead of openly embracing them like he used to do, now he merely neutralizes criticism against them with whataboutery.

Truly we live in an era of Great Progress!

I've never posted fake news.

well, if he does, that's a valid opinion, right? don't all opinions deserve to be heard? don't we have freedom of speech?

Acceptable Atlas Extremism is forever tied to national swing: whichever side makes gains relative to the last election is the side that leadership allows to spout unfiltered opinions without hassle!

[MasterJedi]

Need to send in the national guard when they remove these monuments. Need to relocate them to museums and explain the heritage of treason/southern traitors.

"Russia is our friend!"

Really? These protestors can't honestly believe that. Whatever one may think about what transpired in 2016, Russia is certainly not our friend.

[TheSaint250]

Well, they're stupid.

Interestingly enough, the Russian "cyber"-attack on Estonia in 2007 began with protests by ethnic Russians over the decision to relocate the statue of a Soviet soldier and a graveyard to outside the the Estonian capital's city limits.

[Kingpoleon]

Russia is good. Russia is our friend.

Richard Spencer has the highest ratio of media coverage to actual followers and influence of anyone I can think of.

In any event, I'm glad the idiots who showed up to this forgot their hoods and can own whatever notoriety they get.
