Surely the FBI knew this was coming and had measures in place!

Pretty sure in the modern world the FBI always has measures in place

They’re only half the folks doing the doxxing!

Maps with the jurors' homes circled.

"The group also found posts of the purported addresses of jurors on a fringe internet message board known for pro-Trump content and harassing and violent posts, although it is unclear if any actual jurors had been correctly identified."

This is what worries me most of all. Some (most) of these Trumpers are so unhinged that people who had nothing at all to do with this case could be in danger.

Sure beats trying to help make life better in any way, I guess...

Reflection gives questions, but few solid answers, hate gives you no questions, but all solid answers.

Living with hate is just soo much simpler, you can delfect any problems you encounter to be the fault of your targeted hate group.

Honestly I'm surprised the riots didn't start immediately

I had the same thought. I was preparing for the Proud Boys to try marching around Copley Station again.

u/gravitas_deficiency - were you standing at the back when the gravitas was handed out, by any chance ?

I was, to my chagrin 🙂‍↕️

most of the online ones are fake….

I figured all the people who had the nuts to riot were already in prison for Jan 6, so we'd be fine for at least one election cycle.

trump doesn't pay those actors enough to actually do the riot, and he can't tell the police to start it through back channels right now.

...oh for fucks sake these people are human parodies

Lmao, I didn’t believe this when I first read it. I was sure that The Onion had just written one of their best articles ever, but…

"Cult members try, with intention, to indirectly get actually patriotic American citizens murdered - because they are chicken shit, gravy seal, cowards sitting on their couch, farting, and not taking their meds."
