Rather than triggering a reality check, for many, the fallout from last week’s events seems to have only reaffirmed the conspiratorial beliefs and manipulated outrage that drew them to Washington in the first place.

“The fact of the matter is, after the storming of the Capitol, we did not see those on the far right have a reckoning,” said Friedfeld, who monitors extremist networks online.

“Lol to anyone who’s possibly concerned about the picture of me going around... Sorry I hate freedom?”in a since deleted Facebook post. “Sorry I fought hard for it and lost friends for it? Not like I did anything illegal, WAY too much to lose to go there but, ya’ll do what you feel you need to lol.” “Can you think of any time in our lives or even the lives of your parents where the pentagon had 10k-13k national guard troops stationed in DC?” read one post from a Proud Boys Telegram channel over the weekend.

“If we had prosecuted BLM and antifa rioters across the country with the same determination these last six months, this incident may not have happened at all,” Rep. Tom McClintock, R-Calif., said on Wednesday. Fellow Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz, of Florida, made a similar argument, insisting that “the left in America has incited far more political violence than the right.”

What a unnecessary tragedy. 'Wake up & smell the coffee.'

What happened to comply? She put herself in that situation. A barricaded hallway? A man aiming and telling her to stay back? Nah she died being stupid.

Poor brainwashed people. I have been saying for more than two years that Trump had taken over their minds.

Died for a man who didn’t even know she existed.

Bill this insane bitche’s estate for the bullet.

They're wrong

🤣🤣🤣🤣 funny

That’s a laugh! 🤣

Crazy people....find reality please!

I am very sorry the internet turned Ashli into the nuts case she became and committed suicide.

Those “Patriots” are clueless about what it means to be an American patriot. They certainly are not Patriots.

Why did she came there to die? She could choose the better way. More honorable.

Changing the narrative as usual. Still a Mob who broke into the Capitol in order to change election results, that means you are part of an insurrection. You will be charged with sedition. You cannot change the facts, no matter how much you cry and whine. Prison is your future,

She got what she deserved

Interesting defense strategy... they'll be able to tell their cell mates how they determined that was the best approach.

Lol

Play stupid games win stupid prizes

ignorance of the law is no excuse...

Well she is a traitor and a oath breaker

I remember Trump at one of his rallies encouraging shooting of protesters🤔

So they wanna die on “Alamo” eh?

Well they are delusional

Not surprising bc that’s usually how terrorists think. 🤷🏾‍♀️
