Far-right figure blames ‘corrupt leftwing media’ for January 6 attack on US Capitol in new Trump documentary

The founder of the Proud Boys, the far-right group that played a major role in the January 6 riot at the US Capitol and was memorably instructed by Donald Trump to “stand back and stand by”, has told the makers of a Trump documentary: “We want to make America hate again.”

Gavin McInnes, the UK-born British Canadian citizen who co-founded Vice magazine and was influential in the New York hipster scene of the early 2000s before becoming a far-right militia figure, also claimed to the BBC that his group wasn’t responsible for what happened that day.

“It was you,” he told the makers of the documentary, which has aired on the BBC’s Panorama strand. “If anyone should apologise … it should be the corrupt leftwing media, and I’ll accept your apology now if you want to do it.”

I hate him, does that count?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 6 days ago (1 children)

If this post is any indication, he definitely has succeeded in making America hate him again. If that's what he wanted.

Gavin, if you're reading this thread, don't worry bb, I never forgot to keep hating you

No! I would love to see him actually...on my phone while resting on my warm bed. I would love to see him while traversing the vast artic ice cap on foot with no shoes or other clothes other than his underwear. You know, being superior to me and proud since he can do that and I cannot. I admit my inferiority in this area.

Another such Netflix special would be a SpaceX adventure into the sun. He can wear anything he wants for this one. So long as the proper telescope satellite is viewing how superior he is over all of us, I would be so very satisfied with all my inferior fellows down here far from the superior vastness of the universe. I mean sure, he could also go to Mars where he can be superior too. But I don't have all day man, I gotta do some work. Maybe Mars with no helmet?

Ah yes, Gavin “I enjoy practicing anal sex to defeat those degenerate liberals” McInnes has an opinion about something.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

So glad no one forgot that time he fucked himself on cam

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

Same. I'm usually the one to bring it up but I've seen 3 comments about it already.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I love that he called his little gang ‘The Proud Boys’. It makes think of him and his little buddies all sitting around playing video games, proudly shitting in their pants, with big smiles on their happy faces.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

You should look up 'proud flesh' on horses(warning, its a graphic skin condition). It's what I think of everytime I see proud boys, except somehow they're more disgusting.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 days ago

I bet that skin condition smells better than the average Proud Boy.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 days ago

Several individually coordinated crimes and violent lyrics got the ICP a gang designation.

This motherfucker has had centrally planned riots and an attempted insurrection, has a jumping in process, has perpetrated stochastic terrorism campaigns, and is still invited to speak at public and campaign events.

Did he say that with a butt plug up his ass?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 days ago

dude you don't get it, when he fucked his ass on camera it was to own the libs.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I like it when they grow a spine and tell the truth about what they believe. It makes it easier for the normies to figure it out and leave the group.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 6 days ago

Padme: "So they are leaving the group?"

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 days ago

This toolbag again? He moved to a town not too far from me and people started putting up "Hate has no home here" signs on their lawn, and he threw a fit. What a crybaby. Like if you're going to be a bigot, you should probably have thicker skin. Dude has the spine of a jellyfish.

Here's an article on that whole thing:

Dude can literally go fuck himself.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

You're the criminal because you broadcasted my crimes on tv

You have to admit that the dude has a fascinating brain; such gymnastics

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago

Again?

Mate, I'm not sure it ever stopped...

He's kind of given out the secret to defeating MAGA. Pity them, don't hate them. Challenge them, don't lower yourself to their level. Beat them at the polls, not with a pole.

The MAGA nuts are victims of the MAGA movement too. They've literally been tricked by a failed casino owner nepo baby into thinking that he and other rich people are gonna save the country, share the wealth and fix their sex lives.

I can't back up that last part, but I feel like it's implied by all the incel and anti woman shit they keep drumming up. Coincidentally they really are obsessed with penises which I'm sure says something about them I'm not qualified to determine.

I... I thought the top comment was a joke lmao

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

Wait, did he lube it first? Or shove it in dry?

[–] [email protected] 98 points 1 week ago

Thank you for bringing this up. Anytime this fuckwit is allowed back in the public eye, this should be right at the top to help invalidate the shit he spews.

These assholes literally live on Earth 2, don't they?
