    sadly I would not put it past a lot of those psychopaths to do it for free.

      No doubt that some of them are doing it for the love of the game. 🫤

        I was recently thinking, this recruitment drive must be heaven for the common proud boys brownshirt.

        Who of them wouldn’t sign up, they get to harm immigrants, they get cover from the very top if they catch public attention, they get gear, and they might even get paid for it.

        Maybe some of them just show up in masks with their mallninjashit, and they’re not on the payroll and no one asks if they did the two week training.

        Those are probably the ones ending up in viral clips either threatening to kill someone or actually doing it (or in one case failing because they didn’t know their safety was on).

      Assuming we manage to get a much more reasonable government in place in the coming years, hopefully they’ll be the ones paying for what they’re doing.
