Right-wing violence yesterday: 🔫2 dead in Minnesota. 🎯Mass shooting at march in Utah. 🚗Car attacks at 2 protests. 🚔Police violence at multiple rallies. Viral misinfo + conspiracies - more concerned about policing protests - spread about far-Right groups going "undercover" downplayed real threats.

Yeah honestly I'm mad I didn't think of it first. It was right the fuck there. A tank top, with an actual tank on it, and it has the word arms, and it shows off your arms. It's up on there now, for those so inclined 🫡 wideawakes.army

John Sawers, former MI6 chief: "If the Islamic regime does fall at some point, then we shouldn’t expect a liberal pro-western government to emerge. Without a well-armed opposition inside the country, elements of the armed forces are best-placed to emerge on top in any fight for power"

For Canadians, the constant recipients of Trump’s lurid attempts to be press-ganged into becoming the 51st state, the border is now self-controlled and self-policed, with virtually the entire population agreeing that crossing over to America is a kind of betrayal, almost treasonous. #CdnPoli 🇨🇦

This is serious, rigorous analysis and it should change the way the media has been covering these protests. These were, in the aggregate, massive.

Based on crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don't have data yet, it looks like roughly 4-6 million people protested Trump across the U.S. yesterday. That's nearly 2% of the U.S. pop! Mobilized anti-Trump resistance is exceeding 2017 levels

Reminder: the ties of the alleged shooter to the independent charismatic world are relevant - esp. because he apparently wanted to target abortion providers. @matthewdtaylor.bsky.social on how abortion is talked about in independent charismatic spaces/NAR - as child sacrifice that empowers demons:

Another example of the right wing media machine selectively presenting and then twisting “evidence” into their strategic frames. This is how they work ALL THE TIME. As soon as an event happens, it’s all hands on deck to assemble evidence to fit their frames.

This is v astute. Belew's _Bring the War Home_ describes white nationalists as early internet adopters who wanted to produce this state of affairs! A nationwide movement that retained plausible deniability as to its breadth because of decentralization and the creation of alternative media sources.

RWE violence has a long history in the US, a straight line from the Second KKK to McVeigh to J6. but what really differentiates this era, I think, is that the info environment allows the GOP to simultaneously enjoy the benefits of credible violent threat while disavowing every perpetrator
