How Wisconsin Reacted To The Capitol Riots

 

     Northeast Wisconsin, particularly Green Bay and Brown County, was home to a wild series of conspiracy theories, coincidences, and outbursts of violent rhetoric following the domestic terrorist attack on the U.S. Capitol two years ago today.

     As it happened, one neighbor of mine exclaimed that he wished he could be there participating in the violence.

     In Green Bay that night, a burly, bearded, redheaded man wore a shirt that proudly displayed the words: "CIVIL WAR: RED TEAM." That the shirt had been manufactured, sold, shipped, washed, and worn that day is doubtful, so it raises some serious questions.

     On March 4th, 2021, the day that QAnon assholes believed that Trump would somehow be inaugurated the nineteenth president of a new nation, a man paraded around a local restaurant in full Trump gear.

     I live here, and these few degenerates embarrass me.
