Where do we think the white militia movement is at, compared to say 1994-1999?

Question is in the thread title. Went and watched one of the shows about the Atlanta Olympics bombing, and did some researching. shyt was pretty hectic during that time period. OKC Bombing, Abortion clinics being bombed left and right, Olympics, etc. etc.

Where do we think it's at compared to todays MAGA/Trump-ism? I will certainly say its much more out in the open.

This is designed to be an emotional free discussion, with no hatred or bias in it, accept of course to the dirty Militia CACs.

Right now the movement has political power, so it hasn't left.

Imo there was far more domestic white terrorists back in the 90s. That was actually the feds main focus before 9/11 happened. I think they’re just more vocal now and with social media they “seem” bigger now than before but I’d still say 90s they were far worse/more of them.

HUGEEEE difference.

In the 90s you didn't have any mainstream politicians essentially OK'ing the behavior.

hmm, i'd disagree. i think they may have done "marquee" things in the 90's, but these mass shootings are far more common and fall under actors from that fringe

I watched that this Sunday too

and the parallels are

The terror attacks of the of the last decade is more common than the 90s.

In the 90s, there were bombings on a larger scale.

Though they converge, anti-abortion terror attacks were more common than right-wing militia terrorism.

But like I said earlier, right-wing militia is now in the US Congress, so there is no need for that.

There are different right-wingers in the streets, versus those militia types.

It's way more mainstream than it was in the 90s, that's for sure. The GOP basically cosigns them.

But people don't really go outside as much as they did in the 90s they talk shyt online instead, so actual large scale, organized terrorist attacks may be less common.

I mean it comparison to those times. Better/equal/worse?

So do you think it's 'worse' now, or just been normalized by MAGA and people who wanted to kill themselves when Obama became president?

Do some deeper digging about some of the names mentioned in there. Scary shyt.

I mean those same people in the 90s are in political office, so it is much worse due to having political power.
