Justin Mohn, a 32-year-old Pennsylvania man, is in police custody after allegedly murdering and decapitating his father, claiming the latter was a “federal employee” and a “traitor.” Before his arrest, Mohn posted a 14-minute video to YouTube in which he displayed his father’s severed head, proclaiming: "This is the head of Mike Mohn, a federal

    It’s ironic that if you proclaim to be communist or anarchist, they’ll basically blacklist you, yet one of our political parties is also the largest organized hate group in the nation, and we just accept that as normal.

      This dude LITERALLY pulled an ISIS beheading his father while basically giving the same talking points AS FUCKING ISIS.

      Swatting, bomb threats, planting bombs, death threats, murder, mass shootings, election tampering, sedition, attacking government institutions. Let’s call a spade a spade. They’re a terrorist organization

          On one hand this is the internet so you shouldn’t believe everything you’re told/see. On the other hand I can see Republicans being stupid and tone deaf enough to actually do this…

                It’s very true, their mask slipped and they admitted what they are. The GOP are domestic terrorists intent on installing a theocratic Christian fascist regime in complete disregard of any freedoms or ideas you may hold. They do not engage in good faith discussions, the only thing they’re interested in is power.

                They’re terrorists, and should be dealt with as such.

            This is far beyond stupid and tone deaf.

            Here’s a phrase I wish I took more seriously when I was younger: “When someone tells you who they are, believe them.”

        And they have the gall to say liberalism is a mental disorder.

          …and even taking that BS at face value, an actual mental disorder is infinitely preferable to sober and calculated malice.

            Their brains are broken. Depending on age, it the condition has a chance to be arrested, if not corrected. Until a significant amount of “not right leaning” people understand that at a core level, nothing will change.

      Well said. We as a nation need to snap the fuck out of it and realize how insane this all is. How utterly abnormal all this should be.
