That’s exactly what it is. I don’t often say we should summarily execute people, but I make an exception for these folks.

Some non zero portion of these people are Russian trolls, and others are idiots who have been fooled by the Russians.
Wait…I could have voted for Mike Rowe for something at some point?! Rowe is a class act, he genuinely cares about the country, the economy and the people hardest hit by all the changes in the past 30 years. His initiatives to provide job skills training and re-training along with support programs for displaced workers are the kind of stuff actual political candidates should be adopting.
As for the FB shit about crisis actors, yes, they’re serious, and yes, it’s enough to make you want to beat your fellow Americans with a baseball bat. They’re trying to say that the kids from the high school that are speaking out against gun violence aren’t actually kids from the high school, but actors hired to sow dissent by pretending to be victims and spouting anti-Trump messages in the media. As @Timex says, it’s largely a movement started by Russian trollbots and the Infowars crowd, but it’s been picked up (as all the stupidest shit always is) by the Fox News Facebook crowd.
It’s ironic that so many people who railed against Clinton and Obama and accused them of criminal and treasonous acts are so easily fooled into essentially helping a foreign state destabilize America.

Although I cannot condone vandalism, that vehicle window is just asking for a thrown stone.
Dogshit under the door handles.
Apparently.
Man, all that economic anxiety!
I bet he’s a fun guy to hang with at parties.
Even his truck is white. Dude has issues.
Also, not sure about the usage of Deus Vult there. Is he using it in it’s literal sense, that God Wills that he is a White Christian Man, or is he using it in the manner it was used in the Crusades, as a battle cry to slay Saracens? Are Saracens a big problem in Colorado (where that license plate appears to be from)?
It’s become a rallying cry for racists. Earth sucks.
The Saracen invasion of Colorado sounds like the plot from FarCry 6.
Well, to be fair, it’s always been a rallying cry for racists. It’s just that , in the 11th century, they were state and church sponsored racists. Come to think of it, we’re treading awfully close to church and state sponsored racism here in the 21st century as well. Depressing.
Hmmm…you’re right. I claim copyright on the idea and demand 5% royalties on Far Cry 6 if they use it!

…and here’s the first marketing shot. That handgrenade looks odd though!
What does the greek mean?
Also, if the alpha males were away and their absence was noted and they were missed, wouldn’t the girls be jumping on them? And wouldn’t said returning alpha males be encouraging this instead of commanding that they step aside?

a rough approximation of an apocryphal saying of the Spartans at Thermopylae that roughly means ‘come and take them’, which is apparently a phrase of the extreme NRA lobby types referring to any gun control.
When he says “girls” he means the girly-men that have been in charge since the Alpha Males were off… I dunno, eating red meat and taking steroids. Now that they’re back, the girly-men need to step aside!
Lol, any real alpha male would just eat the girly men…:O
Anyway, that picture was good for a laugh.
This thread makes me so very happy I left Facebook behind.

I know everyone loves keeping up with their distant friends and relatives, but I firmly believe that Facebook is, on the whole, a force for evil. Or, rather a tool easily used for evil.

No, don’t let them off the hook. If they charge less for racist ads than non-racist ads, they’re evil.
