Have you been lied to about Boston?

Like me, many of you were probably unaware of the Boston rally until last Saturday. I only became aware of it through MSM reports about "another alt-right white supremicist rally". Of course, these little details from the organizers were left out

@robertcaruso We are not alt-right. We are diverse group of individuals interested in free speech for all.


Here's one of the White Supremicist Nazis who was invited to speak



Disgusting bigot.

It's almost as if the media had a vested interested in creating a story/continuing a narrative. Those riots last week were certainly good for ratings!

The media is actively pushing for a violent communist revolution

there have been few leftist posters implying or directly stating this was a racist rally

they're too proud to admit they were doing nothing more than parroting lies and propaganda. free thinkers would never do such a thing, obviously!

Absolutely. They pushed the false white supremicist rally story to fuel emotional counter protesters to show up and create another Charlottesville. In doing that, they not only create a ratings booster but also drive the chaos narrative against Trump.

Look for any type of conservative rally to be branded as White Supremicist rallies to keep the story going.

This is the only advertisement I saw for the rally. Apparently most of those people pulled out or were disinvited. Probably why nobody showed up and the thing fell apart.

My bad for not doing my due diligence. I'm sure the intentions were pure.

other than Augustus Invictus (who was dis-invited), which of those speakers represent white supremacy?

It's disturbing to see that the media and politicians are associating free speech with violent supremacist groups but it fits their agenda so they'll continue to do so.


I believe SFP said that there would be a legitimate push to start rolling back free speech protections in the near future and, sadly, I believe he's probably correct.


Any gathering of people without a progressive agenda will soon be labeled as a white supremacist rally and any progressive groups that gather will be deemed exercises of peaceful demonstration and free speech. It's an inevitability.

Lying about what?
I only tuned in because I wanted to see some chaos. It sucked.

There's a thread on here calling the people wearing masks pussies. I tend to agree. Calling this a Pro America rally is the same thing. Don't be pussies, call it what it is. ...


You indeed did not say white supremacists. So what should it have been called?

This is exactly what the media does after 4 days of continuous bashing and lying.

Always nice to get your lies out there first then retract or apologize under the radar once you let it morph into a bigger issue

not just that

"promoting free speech" is going to become "code" for being a white supremacist/Nazi

i said it would take a year, but i mean frick it's literally already happening today

I'm wondering if this translates to legislation or if social demonization of free speech advocates as nazis will be good enough to intimidate them into silence.
