    Didn’t see the NPR article, but this absolutely rings true to me. I live in a blue city in a red state. We were littered by Green Party ads for the primaries that were funded by right wing groups. I wouldn’t say that the far left and far right are working together, but the right is for sure posing as leftist in local outlets and actively encouranging the left’s tendency to eat their own.

      Of course they are, and they’ve been doing it for decades at this point all over the Internet. Anybody remember #walkaway? The movement founded by a ‘former liberal’ who ended up at J6 3 years later.

      It’s funny how often they barely try to hide their right wing roots
