I'm so glad this was thwarted. How scary.

The way white supremacists are obsessed with race wars is so very telling to me. They really think people think about race wars as much as they do. The other side is not looking to participate in a race war. It just shows such a narrow view of the world. Both hateful and totally ignorant.

I remember reading a thing awhile back about how there are a lot of white supremacists in the Canadian military and their favourite power fantasy is starting a race war and blowing up bridges.

It's so perverse, like they have weird pervasive fantasies about hunting down black, brown and Jewish people.

wtffffff. I can't say I'm surprised but I guess I'm surprised that I hadn't heard this before.

Because Pietro is such an 'American' name. This dude forgot that Italians were considered inferior, less intelligent and capable just 100 years ago. Idiot.

I read it as Pietro initially too but it's actually Prieto, so I'm guessing he's Spanish or Latino.

Thank you for the correction. I totally misread the name, but it's not like these neo-Nazi nutters like Spaniards/Latinos any better. I really don't get the mental gymnastics these men do to justify their action. It's not like Trump, the republicans and their MAGA followers keep their hate hidden.

They have a pick me mentality, it's a disease

[afeelingunacted]

Well that's fucking terrifying.

JFC I'm glad he was stopped.

I'm so glad this was stopped, I hope they shake that tree until the limbs fall off.
