Which is because they already have publications, and have had for years, and is not the subject for this one. Note the absence of Outlaw Motorcycle Gang symbols...you think there's no intel briefs on those?
Not to interrupt the latest scare of the day thread, but the document states in bold letters at the top:
The use or sharing of these symbolsBreathing alone should not independently be considered evidence of MVE presence or affiliation or serve as an indicator of illegal activity, as many individualsuse these symbolsbreathe fortheirit's original, historic meaning, or other non-violent purposes.
Not as sexy and click worthy, I know, but there you go. Quit feeding money to people who are charging you to help Balkanize the US.
I mean, to be fair, they may have such bulletins for left wing MVE groups. I'd like that question to be asked of the highest ranking person in the FBI that should know. It seems that none of the higher-ups that get questioned by congress seem to know anything.How many left leaning symbols were listed?
Exactly. They should reschedule Wray to come back in with instructions that he has to bring in people with him that actually know something. It is obvious he has no handle on what the FBI is doing. I appears they just keep him in a room and don't tell him anything.It seems that none of the higher-ups that get questioned by congress seem to know anything.
^^^^ This is a fundamental problem for any Federal Government element which is funded by Congress (all of them). Congress has a budgetary responsiblity and an oversight responsibility. If the organization you are funding is not performing the tasks they are funded to perform (or performing tasks they were not authorized or intended to perform) there is a simple answer. STOP FUNDING THEM!It seems that none of the higher-ups that get questioned by congress seem to know anything.
IMO you are being FAR too charitable, especially since in the past you have decried demonization of the left. I see nothing but FBI and DoJ leadership attempting to further the demonization of the right and advance the administration's narrative that white supremacy, white rage, domestic terrorism - whatever the term du jour currently is - are the biggest threat to AmericaSome of those symbols are just silly to be on there. Punisher skull? Really? Nah. Maybe you might question the maturity of the guy who puts punisher grips on his 1911, but c'mon. That's orders of magnitude in more common use for purposes other than MVE.
Idunno. Are the brass at the FBI who dreams this **** up just that out of touch? I think it's a reasonable conclusion. Some might say they did it for more nefarious purposes. But that they're just out of touch with the culture on the right is the most charitable interpretation I can offer. Gadsden flag indeed!
rhetorical?How many left leaning symbols were listed?
That disclaimer is so they say claim exactly what you`re seemingly inferring; that they don`t really mean anything by it...Which is because they already have publications, and have had for years, and is not the subject for this one.

Ruh-roh. I have a 48 star flag on the wall of my home office. Should I expect the window kicked in imminently?How far will they go with this stuff? I've seen trigger warnings on our founding documents, so I guess there's that. Will the stars and stripes be on the next list?

Hide yo dawg quick.Ruh-roh. I have a 48 star flag on the wall of my home office. Should I expect the window kicked in imminently?
But that scenario presupposes that the FBI indeed wishes to have a pretext to 'curb our rights', but any organization working in secret to curb our rights is unpatriotic and evil, and such an organization likely DOES consider conservatives and patriotic Americans to be a domestic threat (to their own illegitimate power) and thus certainly would not hesitate to ACTUALLY create such a document for realI can't help but wonder if that document was faked by someone in the FBI or someone who could make it seem like it was an FBI document, just to make the patriotic community enraged? I believe it would be a way to get someone unstable to react in an emotional way to then have one more excuse to curb our rights. Proving to the general public that they are correct to suspect the "patriotic" community.
