Who the hell moved this to conspiracy theory?
The perpetrators were anarchists.
Anarchists can be left or right, but it seems that these guys are your run of the mill anti-government rightwing nutjobs.
This is the group: Who are the Wolverine Watchmen? What is ‘boogaloo’?
Anarchists can be right wing? About as much as Marxism, anarchism is a far-left ideology.
No, you are mixing anarchists with anarcho-capitalists. They are entirely different and have nothing to do with each other.
You guys smack of desperation trying to disown your own.
Here - the Wolverine Watchmen
“Several of the men charged (with conspiring to kidnap Whitmer) have histories of anti-government organizing, as well as interest in countering what they saw as an ‘uprising’ against President Donald Trump, according to their online profiles and comments.”
Federal officials also said the seven men tied to the Wolverine Watchmen militia group -- Paul Bellar, Shawn Fix, Eric Molitor, Michael Null, William Null, Pete Musico and Joseph Morrison -- support the “boogaloo” movement.
The group was formed by citizens angered about Whitmer’s orders during the pandemic. They like to recruit in person and don’t have a large presence online, which might be connected to Facebook, Discord and other social media platforms’ decision to remove accounts associated with the boogaloo movement earlier this year.
These aren't leftists.
