@SECRET_ASIAN_MAN #politics (let's remember to hashtag this for those being overwhelmed, please). I'm very aware we have a violent history in America. What we don't have is a history of is an attempt to overthrow the government as happened on 1/6.
You know what we didn't have earlier? The internet and darknet as a way of organizing diverse groups around the country.
I grew up in John Bircher country. I know how bonkers these folks are.
