(10,252 posts)Stop spreading these stupid conspiracy theories. Someone skinhead with low IQ might believe it and spread it further.

Even if it had been an agent provocateur who organized the rally, he didn't force anyone to chant Nazi-slogans. The protesters did this all by themselves.
And if the WHOLE rally was a false-flag operation, this means that dozens and hundreds of well-known white supremacists would have to be fakes.
