My god, the rage! The intimidation!
Hang on, hang on. Wait a minute, those aren’t alt-right fascists! Where’s the body armor, the shields, the weapons? Those are the anti-fascists. Thousands of them. boston.com reports that all 20–count ‘em twenty–fascists cut their “rally” short after an hour and asked the cops to escort them outta there.
The boston.com article did have this one picture showing an alt-right fascist. Well, to be precise, it had a picture of two millennial boys on opposite sides trying to bitch-slap each other. How cute!
(In case you can’t tell which is which, the leftie’s on the left and the rightie-whitie’s on the right.)
Is it possible the fever’s broken? When a rally intended to show the strength of the extreme right instead turns into a celebration of mainstream American values, maybe so.
When Chris Cantwell cries, I’m just about certain of it.
