Jake Angeli : antifa?

A QAnon promoter stormed the Capitol. Now, he's upset people are saying he's 'antifa'

Based on some of the bizarre theories I'm hearing about yesterday's insurrection, I'm pretty sure that I've got it figured out: Donald Trump is actually Deep State antifa, planted to discredit the Republican Party and "patriot" white supremacists.

(Seriously, we're up to Trump supporters telling me that Jake Angeli's pseudo-Germanic tattoos and years of fascist neo-Nazi social media presence are actually part of a plot to discredit the fascist movement. Logical thought is gone here, and the disappointing part of it is just how many people have given up any rational behavior.)

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
