Far-Right Extremism in Upstate NY

[Catskillkid]

Far-right extremism is thriving in rural areas. Here's what it looks like in Upstate NY

All right, which one of you "election-denying, right-wing extremists" is spreading all this "hate" in the North Country?

 

[dsdmmat]

Ehh leftists trying to keyhole people into a corner.

 

[Vapor]

Are the proud boys even real? Sure they aren't just cia agitators?

 

[S&W Fan]

Bahahahaha , what a load of horse shit !

 

[ManualF150]

How about they focus on the border, illegal immigrants, and all the tyranny that is going on in Albany and Washington for cripes sake?

I got a great idea...! Fix those problems in the USA and they won't need to worry about militias trying to "gain ground".........

Shit. I guess it's that time, huh?

Yawn. The proud boys are such a threat they got chased off by a gay wine store owner. Sounds like a real apocalypse.

BTW, this is the wine store owner who fought off the army of proud boys.

So gay pride parades are great but if you disagree with the message then it’s not ok, got it.

It’s no wonder those big bad extremists were scared

Notice how PUBLIC radio (aka tax payer funded) swings this so called extremism always to the right wing? What about left wing extremists? I see that as a bigger problem that they should report on. NY government is filled with these wack jobs. They shit all over the Constitution. They force their climate change agenda telling us what kind of vehicles we will drive, how we will heat our homes, even what kinda stoves we can cook on. They locked us down and ruined the livelihood of tens of thousands of people. That is extremism. Not some snow flake wine store owner that got offended over a bunch of rednecks walking outside expressing their freedom of speech.

NCPR hosts Zach Hirsch and Emily Russell (a.k.a. free lance reporters) whose reporting is so far to the left that you get a Babylon Bee sort of feel to it. Nothing like taking a huge dump on the community that you supposedly serve.

My favorite ... Republicans warn of a 'siege' at the Canadian border. But thousands more people are actually heading north

It's only 846% ....

Such complete, intolerant, blind, unreasoning, self-absorbed, utter bullshit. "Violent extremists" huh? How many people have the Proud Boys ganged up on and beat to death? How many have burned stores, destroyed property, vandalized, stolen, and sprayed hate filled graffiti all over streets and walls? How many have smashed and burned police cars?

What's that? None you say? HOW DARE YOU! You must be racist.

Fuck that shop owner, and fuck everything about NPR. It's really sad - back in the early 2000's I used to listen all the time. Their commentary on a vast array of subjects was thoughtful, insightful, and interesting. Now it's a bunch of radical Liberal hacks and nothing else. Around the time Ovomit became a Senator they started going downhill, after Sandy Hook they went completely off the rails.

I don't believe proud boys are even real. I haven't met a single person who knew one. Name is stupid as fuck too. Sounds like something the commies would come up with.

 

[Vapor]

You'd think they'd have a better name. Like the sons of liberty or patriot something. Not "proud Bois"

Lame Stream Media ... trying to stay relevant while controlling the narrative ....

You'd be too, if you were Kermit the frog.

Retard cited SPLC. 'nuff said.

Lewis County Sheriff Mike Carpinelli was at Freedom Fest. He’s part of a far-right movement known as the constitutional sheriffs, which teaches sheriffs they don’t have to enforce laws they think are unconstitutional.

Far Right means upholding the United States Constitution....

Gavin picked the name from an Aladdin song.

He is an odd dude. Exactly the same in real life as on tv/twitter/etc.

So this person verbally attacked the group of people exercising their first amendment because she disagreed with them simply because they were marching down the street. I can only Imagine if it was the other way around that the store owner would then be called the right wing extremist/fascist.

Dam right we up here are Extremists! Freedom Extremists!

I'm so fucking sick of it. Anybody who calls themselves a Patriot, a Libertarian, is an American history buff, dares fly an American Flag, or states that "I love America", is branded as a far-right white supremacist. It's time for Americans to take our country back.

Poor (self-described) flaming queer can't hurl obscenities and abuse at a few rednecks blaring country music from their truck without getting called a mean name. "Help! I'm being oppressed! Queer isn't nice when you say it!"

So "far-right" and "extreme" they drive pick-up trucks and play mainstream country music. Cue smelling salts.

Is Ballston Spa even North Country? It's close enough to smell the shit from Albany when the wind blows, that's in the Upper Hudson neighborhood. It's probably as far up as they could send a journalist.
