This happens at every Republican convention and many Democratic ones, but still worth reminding people of. ---

Those are Anarchists. Angry idiots without any shred of a rational working ideology. ---

A extremely inflammatory OP with only blog posts as cites? Moving to The BBQ Pit from Elections. ---

> [@Chimera](#): > > Those are Anarchists. Angry idiots without any shred of a rational working ideology. True, but the threat from such groups is often understated compared to the so-called dire threat to the republic posed by right-wing militias. Most of the actual violence done in this country for political reasons is done by these anarchists. ---

As a writer and a published author, I would not consider the Examiner an acceptable source of information. The site is really just a glorified collection of unedited blogs. This is the kind of crap they let people publish: > **[StockExaminer - AI-Powered Stock Chatbot](https://examiner.com)** > > Discover Stock Examiner, the AI-powered chatbot delivering instant, interactive stock charts, real-time financials, breaking news, stock screeners, and more—all in one seamless experience. > [@](#): > > One such group, Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) is fighting the immunization trend in the United States, and have found that approximately 11,000 children have had adverse effects to these vaccines, about 400 suffered a permanent disability, and between 100 to 200 have died from these immunizations per year. Would anyone like to play spot the errors in that paragraph with me? ---

Most of the actual violence done in this country for political reasons is done by these anarchists. Bullshit. The Oklahoma City bombing all by itself accounts for “most of the actual violence done in this country for political reasons” in the past 20 years. Anarchists just smash windows. ---

Most of the actual violence done in this country for political reasons is done by these anarchists. Really? Because it seems like religious extremists and authoritarian politicians are more successful at political violence, murder and terror. ---

What’s wrong with Bakunin? Malatesta and the advocates of violence I understand, but the pacifist anarchists? ---

Well, for one, he made Marx look like a pragmatist. For another, whether or not he was a pacifist is open to debate - which is not something you could say about his antisemitism. ---
