(16,869 posts)First, they're protesting in front of a statue of Robert E Lee. Second, the ONLY reason they're chanting "Russia is our friend", is because the current regime in Russia aligns with their personal political agenda. Russia is our friend!!?? Lmao, in what fucking way??? Not since Hitler took his own life in that bunker has Russia been anything more than a reluctant ally. These alt-right types have clearly spent too much time in their own bubble to have actually read a book or challenge their beliefs in any meaningful way. What a bunch of fucktards!

They are in the open regarding treason now.
