Brownshirts At It Again in New York

Leftists always claim to be worried about creeping fascism. 

It's their excuse for painting swastikas, breaking windows as if it were Kristallnacht, shouting antisemitic slurs, assaulting strangers they don't like, and generally behaving like Brownshirts.

It's almost like they are...fascists. 

Well, Extinction Rebellion--an extraordinarily well-funded organization with literal billionaires pouring money into its coffers--is at it again, striking several locations at once in New York City. 

A lot of the money gets funneled through the "Climate Emergency Fund," but there is a network through which the money flows, and no doubt USAID is in the background somewhere. 

It always is. Especially during the Biden administration, which famously threw (metaphorical) gold bricks out the window when it was leaving Washington.

Nobody ever pays a price for the damage done, whether it is destruction, disruption, or any of the Brownshirt tactics of intimidation. The funders could and should be prosecuted under RICO, but I have my doubts that any of them will, or that billionaires would ever be held accountable. 

I do have to say that I am impressed that XR takes such a bold stand against greed, given that their main funders are heiresses who live in luxury and toss out their table scraps to radicals for entertainment purposes and to assuage their not-very-genuine guilt for never having contributed a thing to society.

These people accomplish nothing for their phony "cause" because people in general hate them with the power of a thousand suns, but they surely enjoy LARPing their way as revolutionaries. 

Since one of their targets is Elon Musk, I strongly suggest he sue all the funders into oblivion. If the Justice Department or local prosecutors won't take them on, Musk certainly has the financial power to make his fellow billionaires feel the pinch. Even if he doesn't take any of their cash, he could probably drag them in for depositions and make their lives miserable. 

After all, these people have been making our lives miserable for far too long.
