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.”
Yes!
I mean I don’t want to be mean about where someone lives. About 33k people live in Alice Springs and I’m sure it’s a great place to be.
That said, it really is in the middle of the desert. It’s harsh beauty is breathtaking even on google maps satellite view:
There’s no sensible reason to move Australia’s Political capital in any case.
I doubt it’s even feasible to support a large population in that area.
How far away is that from Barter Town?
Yeah, perhaps I should have said livable instead of pleasant. I’ll change it. But Phoenix and Las Vegas have a lot of problems because they’re giant cities built in places that can’t really support populations that size using water in the way they do.
