So my question is how much longer until Gab is labeled as a terrorist organization responsible for homegrown radicalization and is seen to fall under the auspices of the Patriot Act. Sounds like it's about time for the FBI to go in and rough some people up, and for the influential movers and shakers not easily broken, some CIA sanctioned wetworks ought to do the trick. Then leave an opening to allow for the really resilient ones to migrate to some semi-dark alternate media platform and bide your time to see how many deplorables sign on. Gather data, addresses and known associates, and let it play out until all of your agents are in place to ambush them all at once. Then you have a who's who of everyone in the "resistance" and can crush it once and for all by shipping them off to the FEMA concentration camps or executing or disappearing them at your leisure. That's what I would be thinking if I were the PTB.
How cheery! , ever the imaginative one. This calls for a martini.
