      They know they have to stay mask on, no matter what.

      They tried the whole “haha, we were nazis all along!” thing with the tiki torches and Unite the Right rally. They lost their jobs, families and the platform they’d built out of plausible deniability.

      You could catch them dressed as Hitler, with a hand written copy of Elders of Zion, in the middle of lynching a jew, and they’d still claim “the left just calls everyone who disagrees with them a Nazi”.

      “Terrorists” are the bad guys, you want “freedom fighters” (fighting for your freedoms, of course).
