If you're waiting for the FBI to suppress right wing paramilitary groups, you're in for a predictable disappointment. We keep each other safe from these fuckers by showing up and backing them down.
I’ve been out there and was called a “race traitor” for filming a black woman at a protest. Trust me I don’t need to be educated on how dangerous they are lol
FBI has been infiltrated by far right groups, especially white supremacists, for several decades. It probably HAS gotten worse since literal fascism became mainstream, though..
J Edgar Hoover? Nah, he hated communists and enthusiastically supported South American, Middle Eastern, and African fascist dictators. As was the style at the time (and more or less secretly still is).
