There sure seem to be a lot of "lone wolves" doing terroristic acts for white supremacy, I wonder why

Just a coincidence
Here's a hint, Fox News.
Though that's just one major contributor to conservative propaganda. There are more extreme conservative propaganda stations that push even more ridiculous lies, hate, and falsehoods daily.
I don't think its super likely that the US escalates into full civil war, but if we did, Historians would probably put the start date somewhere before the current date. These types of stochastic attacks always share similar motives. From the guy who tried to blow up a 5g tower to the guys shooting up groups of POC or LGBTQ.
the Russian Volunteer Corps, a pro-Ukrainian group fighting Russian forces,
This name is confusing af.
I think it's supposed to be for Russians who disagree with Putin and want to fight back.
There was a similar unit in the second world War made up of Germans but I do not know what it was called.
Antinazistische Deutsche Volksfront.
This idiot doesn't know a damn thing. White power is supposed to be establishing a hierarchy of societal change that favors ethnic cleansing and genocide, not a power company.
Blowing up an electrical substation seems to be a weird objective anyway, he's going to piss off his "own people" as much as anything else.
Was just worrying if we were due for one of these:
Over the course of 19 minutes, about one hundred bullets caused $15 million dollars in damage to our power grid, damaging components that take months to manufacture: 2013’s Metcalf sniper attack near San Jose, California
Edit: sheesh! Happened AGAIN in 2022!
Moore County, NC: Gunmen shot up two power substations. 40K customers lost power. Took days to fix. FBI had warned about extremist threats to grid. Investigators found shell casings, offered $75K reward. Theories: anti-drag show motive or generic extremism. One lady died when her oxygen machine stopped (homicide). Schools closed, curfew imposed. NC governor pissed. White House "monitoring."
That is quite an interesting set of political beliefs this guy has.
Nothing makes white people support racism quite like cutting them off from electricity for however long it would take to fix the damages. /s
What is it with racially charged hate groups and damaging things that affect the people they supposedly are fighting for? I wouldn't be surprised if groups like white supremacists are more than willing to sacrifice white people in order to further their goal but are too pansy to sacrifice themselves. Sounds right up their wheelhouse, those neanderthals.
Americans need guns! Otherwise they won't have the freedom to shoot the electrical infrastructure!
