Soooo, I purposely found my way to the "wrong side" of TikTok. We need to talk about this.
I started a new TikTok account and began watching, liking, and following right-wing content. I initially did it because I thought I would find morons talking about magnets in vaccines or something like that...I was going to make fun of them. It was hard at first because I kept getting clips of Trump over and over again.
But then something more dark and nefarious began showing up on my feed. So, I made my way over to the Domestic Terrorist side of TikTok. (If you're unfamiliar with TikTok or their software, they will feed you content based on your likes and watches, and they are VERY specific, even in narrow niches. TikTok's software's algorithm is IMO the most brilliant and effective of all social media platforms.) Ok, so the first thing everyone needs to know is hundreds, maybe thousands of so-called patriots hanging these black American flags on their houses and cars. These are no quarter shall be given flags. I have asked several of them the meanings, to be sure. What these flags mean is that they will not surrender, and they will execute their enemies. Who are their enemies? Democrats, Liberals, Communists, the Government, Biden, vaccinated people, LGBTQ, and BIPOC. They are openly letting everyone know they are ready to start murdering non-conservatives. Then, they are organizing. I'm sure they are organizing on other social media platforms as well. Still, they are talking about their locations and asking nearby people to message them to start organizing and planning. There are hundreds of them online talking about how they are ready to die, they are ready to start forcibly removing elected officials, and they are ready to start kicking in the doors of Democrats. They also plan to meet at their local libraries at 9 am every Saturday and not bring their cell phones, so they can start secretly planning their "taking back of America." I started a thread on Twitter with some of these clips. (Some of them are just stupid) But you can see how many of them are openly planning violence and trying to connect with people who are down for their cause. This thread doesn't even cover how many of them I've come across. Saturday in Washington DC, it wouldn't surprise me if there was violence. Also, in Colorado, too. I'm sure there are other places, but those are the only two I've heard about so far. They think that Joe Biden has committed treason by mandating the military, and employers with more than 100 employees have to get vaccinated. They have been saying that this is the civil war, and Biden made the first shot. Then, many military people will not take the vaccine and are leaving the military because of it. So the people who are trying to organize are directly targeting them and vets. The FBI would go round all these people up and hit them with some red flag laws in a perfect world, but the world is far from perfect. Many of us saw January 6th coming for months. But, I'm here to tell you, it's coming again, and this next time will be at the expense of much more human life. Here is my thread; I suggest watching all of the videos, especially those close to the end. Link to tweet

1. I think that the FBI is watching many of these people closely even becoming members.
I would hope that any violent acts they do will be met with sufficient police action against them.

2. I agree I think most of these "groups" have been infiltrated.
They are by and large not smart enought to figure it out. Hell they took pictures of themselves at an insurection and posted them online, they have no clue they are not the majority. They live in an echo chamber where they think the people who don't agree with them are a small minority that "must be destroyed". In fact, we are a MAJORITY of the country.

and blind eyes being turned toward these supposed 'mericans. Be nice to know that AM is still around taking names, if nothing else.

9. If they think they are tough, they will not want to meet the lady that runs our little town library.
But seriously, they do bear watching. After 1/6 and the beefing up of security and hopefully communications in DC, I think localized events will be more likely to occur. I doubt the small town police will be able to respond adequately in many cases. Heck, the police may be on their side. It's gonna get interesting.

23. I can't help noticing that we have had quite a few first responders dying, funeral notices, etc in
the general area lately. Males, 50ish-65ish. The local news covers the tributes and the basic stories but does not mention cause of death. I can understand that but it does make you wonder how many are anti-vaxxers. They do seem to be doing their jobs (or were), not saying otherwise. I wonder how long that will last if the s**t hits the fan.

14. Thank you for investigating this
You have a stronger stomach than I do!
I think many of these people are the fat dudes with the big guns across their chests who like to play war games on the weekend. If any real shooting started, I think they would run for the hills. Not all of them, of course. But I doubt there are that many of these boys who would actually do what they like to pretend on social media. I do hope the FBI is keeping tabs on them nonetheless. |

24. Kicking my door in would be a fatal mistake
This Dem owns guns, them kicking in my door would be a death sentence. I don't think they'll enjoy a shotgun blast to the face really. I'm not scared of some goofy fucks on TikTok or on any social media to boot. These spineless jellyfish love to act tough in groups, but solo? They tuck tails and run away screaming like the wusses they are.

28. The same thing can happen on Facebook, you know?
The posters on TikTok are perhaps a little younger than Facebook. But clicking on right-wing posts (if you have a fresh account with few friends and no history) would get you into the same sort of garbage very quickly.

29. Nope, because disinformation and threats of violence are removed or flagged on Facebook.
Plus Facebook blocked all of them from having groups after Kyle Rittenhouse.

33. This would be hilarious if it wasn't so serious:
"They also plan to meet at their local libraries at 9 am every Saturday and not bring their cell phones, so they can start secretly planning their "taking back of America.""
Meeting at their government-run, taxpayer funded, socialist local libraries, in order to take back their idea of our country. Their inability to see the irony of that is not surprising and makes it funnier yet. Edit: be careful out there on the intertubes, Shell Seas. Stay safe and cautious. |

I’ve never seen a black stars & stripes flag before - not in my part of the country. I’m surprised to learn they’re popular enough to be sold at Walmart.

35. Keep in mind
that the vast majority are keyboard warriors who won’t actually leave their basement to commit violence. There’s some who will commit violence but I doubt it’s a large number. People were predicting violence the other day in DC and other state capitols and nothing happened.
