"They are not trump supporters, they are antifa"

This is not a joke, a lot of these brainshwashed idiots are actually subscribing to the belief that all the folks who stormed the capital today are actually Antifa. They are not trump supporters. they are antifa, dressed up as trump supporters.

I'm serious they actually believe this shit.

I'm not going to waste my time pasting one of their viral memes about this here for you to see, but there are lots of them.

I was just told by a friend on facebook that I was "duped into believing they are trump supporters"

what the F is going on ?

Their whole thing is based on stamping out fascism in all forms before it leads to something like we saw today.

He said it in a chatroom like it's fact hours ago.

And Trump isn't responsible because Trump simply told people to go to DC. Trump never said to storm in or do anything like this.

Make the truth so hard to find anything becomes believable. Steve Bannon called it “flooding the zone with shit.”

Not in the least. Its how they roll. I mean, we're talking about people who claim a shooting up of a school was fake, and everyone involved in it is a crisis actor. Just more conspiracy garbage to keep the rubes in line.
