Les militants fascistes ont attaqués des manifestants rue de la Loge sous les yeux de la police, quand les manifestants ont répliqués, la police a chargé pour les protéger et les miliciens ont frappés les gens à terre ! #Montpellier #24octobre #ViolencesPolicieres @info.gouv.fr

If you claim to have never heard Nick Lutsko's "I Wanna Be at the RNC", it says more about you than the author of the Infowars theme song. People who make this claim expose a deeper issue in their psyche, allowing them to lie to themselves and the public to prove they are not woke rolling stones.
