Old Montreal. Throughout the weekend, the provocateurs of @RebelNewsOnline and @ezralevant made a stir with the result we know: breakage and vandalism. Get the hell out of our town.

He should unironically play the antisemitism card just to troll them.
The Montreal police are literally calling them "Jew media". it's not playing the card, it's reporting the facts.
Sometimes, the card is in your hand to play. Other times, you have to pull it from your sleeve.
Well he is one of (((those people))) :P
Based.
rebel news: absolutely conspiracy theorist nobodies no one care and listen about. so you should not either
at the same time
rebel news: super-powerful organization capable of mount up riots like nothing
this is a croissant full of shit and it taste of Orwellian doublethink.
It is the standard creed of all identitarian authoritarian regimes.
Your target of hate group must be simultaneously pathetic and easily defeated, while being all-powerful and a looming threat.
In popular examples, to feminists, The Patriarchy controls ALL, from cash flows to elections to every job in every business, and actively seeks to crush and oppress them... And can be summarily defeated with walking around with placards and yelling a bit. And on the reverse, The Kyriarchy/Feminists control all and influence all of reality to the level usually reserved for plot-warping supervillains... But are all incompetent and can't even build a bridge or organize a snow plow route. The Jews are rich and in every position of power imaginable and use that to ever-solidify their eternal grip on society... which is why the stormfags must mildly sass them, their one weakness is being mildly sassed on the internet with (((multiple parentheses))). And of course, mildly sassing them on the internet is just a prelude to mass extermination, as we know sassing on the internet always leads to genocide, so the Zionists must fight back against the clear and present danger of the authorities suddenly destroying them, inspired by that mild sassing... by contacting those same authorities.
In Christianity, Satan is rival to God, and presented as nearly as powerful to the point where the comparison, when compared to a human, is mostly academic. He can warp reality, alter brains, time travel, teleport, explode entire nations... And can be defeated by saying "get thee behind me Satan", turns out asking nicely just trounces him.
Whenever you're trying to create a powerful identitarian group, you must have an "enemy" that is simultaneously a justifiable enemy due to their power and evilness, and yet also able to be defeated with just the efforts of a singular or small group of random uneducated peasants.
You appear to have hit a nerve. Can't argue with anything you said. Pretty much agree. Creating an "other" promotes group solidarity and cohesion. A mild amount of critical reasoning and gathering facts for yourself is universally discouraged and punished within these groups.
It's fine if I hit nerves, so long as those whose nerves I hit take a moment to consider, even in passing, why those nerves twanged.
There is, ultimately, nothing "good" or "evil" about ascribing yourself to an identity. After all, we are human. And that's an identity. Being proud of what you've accomplished is great. Being proud of what people you support accomplish is great, too. But attributing hatred, fear, evil, or whathaveyou, to an outside group... Sometimes they really do intend harm. And sometimes they really are incompetent or weak. But it is rare for a group to be both. They need to check if their worldview is truly internally consistent, and many times it is not, and people don't like the feeling of that introspection: It is easier to fool someone, than to convince them they have been fooled.
Yes, well, Gamergate was a few basement-dwelling misogynists that also (somehow) got Donald Trump elected.
