It’s almost comical how obvious they are. First of all, they call themselves “Patriot Front.” If that doesn’t set off your spidey senses, then ask yourself:

• Since when do patriots take on uniform dress?
• Since when do patriots carry anti-fa style shields?
• Since when does any group of patriots almost all have tactical footwear?
• Since when do patriots march in unison at the capitol without harassment by law enforcement?
• Since when do patriots cover their faces?

What other astroturf organizations does this sound like?

I’ve never heard of them. So you’ll have to excuse me if I’m a little bit skeptical when an organized group called “patriot front” group shows up out of the blue, checking all those boxes.
