The goal is to goad these morons into doing something stupid. Once they do, it'll justify an even broader targeting of people who think like this.

Like storming the capital?

Naw that's already been factored into the equation. I'm talking about violence or destruction of property. Basically something that someone in a position of authority can use to divert funds or increase surveillance of certain political enemies.

Damn almost like the attempt to overthrow the gov't on a theory of overturning the election results and installing Trump as the (unelected) president would be exactly what you are talking about, but what the fuck do I know?

Stupid, or dangerous and destructive. Blocking traffic and pissing everyone off is one thing, so is getting rowdy at a protest, but hopefully these idiots keep their guns at home.

The goal is that one of them does NOT keep their violence in check. These fools will be goaded/led into doing something reckless, which is good because it will be met with a nation-wide heavy handed response at the federal level.

The sooner these types are silenced, or their views banned from participating in politics the better.

I don't care as much about political strategy as I do about people's well-being and lives. I'd prefer they were goaded into staying home.

I disagree, look at the good the BLM riots did. It cost billions in damage and dozens of lives were lost, but I think history will look on it positively.

Sometimes these things are called for (when our side does it anyway, hehπŸ˜†πŸ˜†).
