Where We Go One, We Go Stupid

As more details emerge of the sinister undertones of the DC riots last week, with photos of armed, masked, camo-clad dipshits carrying cable-tie restraints, recordings of people chanting "Hang Mike Pence", along with the other usual 3-word slogans (Stop The Steal', 'Count The Votes', or alternatively 'Stop the Count', '4 More Years'... 'USA! USA!' etc...) Why is it these slogans only have 3 words? I have my theory... what's yours?
Having seen Arnold Schwarzenegger - former Republican Governor of California - comparing the riot to Kristallnacht, one of the great leaps forward by the nascent Nazi Party & personally finding it a bit of a long bow to draw & just another case of celebrity bandwagon-jumping... it was interesting to see some more images & reports from the riots, that actually bear Arnold out quite a bit. Put simply - you've heard one right-wing, racist fuckwit, you've heard them all... The baseless, unfounded, racist, bigoted, anti-semitic bullshit remains the same, only the names change to suit the times
Interesting that these white supremacists claim that "Europeans are the children of god"... given that Christianity was born in a Middle-Eastern country & that Europe actually includes Muslim countries like Turkey, Bosnia, Albania, Kosovo & even Kazakhstan. The irony that Kazakhstan's most famous exponent is actually an English Jew is not lost on me. I wonder if it's lost on Trump's supporters?!
Probably... as are a great many other things, I'd wager
