Not going to link and give clicks.

The comments are far worse than what r/thedonald was accused of before getting quarantined.

I reported the post, but bet you I will receive zero response.

It's under r/completeanarchy

Wow, found a second post of the same nature, reported it also.

Both posts immediately disappeared from my app once I reported them, but if I sign out they are still there.

I will wait and see if I get a response, but it appears they just block it from anyone who reports hoping you will think they took action.

Reddit is an absolute leftist echo chamber. Avoid it at all costs for anything political.

Agree, I just happened across this and it was so close to the accusations against r/thedonald, I figure I'm going to push and see if they will even bother to remove the post.

Going to bed, will report back on reddit's response or lack there of.

On Saturday, a man armed with a rifle and Molotov cocktails or flares, according to reports, and angered by "factually inaccurate portrayal" of the facility, according to the company operating the facility, attempted to set fire to an ICE detention center in Tacoma, Washington.

In a subsequent confrontation with police, the Antifa activist was killed. And some of his fellow activists called him a martyr for it.

Nevertheless, the media has not reported any connection with Antifa, nor are they speculating about what may have motivated this man, who made the attempt to set fire to the building amid protests against the building.

On the CNN and MSNBC websites, you'll need to hunt to find the story at all, in fact. CNN's on air report, in particular, is striking in its above-and-beyond effort to remove this bomber from anything even remotely related to objections to ICE facilities or, one can surmise, calling them "concentration camps."

The Seattle Times, however, reported extensively.

Willem Van Spronsen, who has been arrested before during immigration protests at this very facility, was shot and killed on Saturday. Police say the man threw his incendiary devices at the building, striking some vehicles and setting them ablaze, while armed with a rifle. He also attempted to ignite a propane tank.

Police reported "shots fired," although it is unclear who fired first. Emergency responders found Van Spronsen dead when they arrived.

Here's an early report from local station KING 5 News in Seattle.

A friend of the man spoke with the Seattle Times. She believes it was his intent that this end in his own death. And her description of him politically should raise the eyebrows of anyone living in the state of Washington. Because it is a familiar one.

Deb Bartley, a friend of Van Spronsen's for about 20 years, described him as an anarchist and anti-fascist, and she believes his attack on the detention center was intended to provoke a fatal conflict.

"He was ready to end it," Bartley said. "I think this was a suicide. But then he was able to kind of do it in a way that spoke to his political beliefs … I know he went down there knowing he was going to die." She said he is an "anti-fascist." Yet the press refuses to use the word "antifa" here.

Nevertheless, as Sooper pointed out at The Right Scoop, fellow "anti-fascists" were quick to claim him. And praise him. Here is just one example. But there are more.

The MSM is following antifa requests of guarded news coverage.

Well they are different "divisions" of the same organization so those requests probably came down from "corporate".

The article I read stated "he was armed and several shots were fired.....but police are not reporting if he fired"..

Talk about biased, he is throwing Molotov cocktails at propane tanks, and Im supposed to wait for him to shoot me as well before I fire back??

And yes, all this is on the libs for promoting the "nazi ICE and DHS".

There are about as many antifa members as there is KKK members, or transgenders for that matter. If there wasn’t a civil war when KKK and Black Panther were at its height, what makes your small mind think there is any chance of it happening now?

Not surprising that they have it backwards. The hero is the one who killed the stupid left wing bastard. They should get a medal and a raise.

Yep, we've had enough of the "taken into custody" stories.

Transgenders are forcing changes in our society every day. The size of the contingency seems to matter little when it is being backed by our government officials at many levels. Antifa attacks folks with little consequence and the MSM blames those being attacked. How big of a backing do the Antifa and leftist have in metro areas?


The main point is when will the US government go after these folks like they did the movements of the sixties and chase them down and bring them to justice?

Many in the government want what they are pushing. So unless trump gets reelected and does a complete system reset of the government, which is unlikely, they will hardly be punished.

How there isn’t a Reddit competitor is amazing. I never go on it, but it’s basic as heck, their GUI sucks and the mods are all betas

What a surprise, 6 hours later I don't have a single response from a mod, and the posts are both still up.

Not sure if serious...

Video games improve vision, hand-eye coordination, cognitive function, cognitive flexibility, teamwork, leadership skills, multitasking, attention, memory, decision-making, social skills, delayed gratification, patience, and help people with dementia, multiple sclerosis, amblyopia, dyslexia, ADHD, & autism. All of which have been documented by studies. So, obviously, they're a problem.
