Clrvynt talks to Mark Lind, whom the sort of people who "identified" the Marathon bombers online now think was the guy who punched that Nazi down in Washington.
Lind, who spent the day at work in Boston, says he'd never even heard of the guy.
The online mob of Spencer supporters attacking Lind quickly swelled in numbers as the fake news even made its way to infamous white power (and perhaps weather-obsessed) message boards Stormfront and The Daily Stormer, where he was also falsely accused of being Jewish.

Condoning violence?
I mean I'm not condoning racism, but i also don't approve of communism and you don't see me running around punching far-left Bostonians.
Well, bully for you

Where am I condoning violence? I'm reporting on a local man who finds himself besieged by online basement boys for something he didn't do.

Punching Nazi's is a time honored, US tradition. I'm also for punching Fascists, and Dictators, and the occasional Monarch.

These aren't people you have a mere policy disagreement with when they're calling for genocide. And punching them seems to work well.

You should always punch a Nazi, whenever you get a chance.

I know plenty of insufferable communists, but not a single communist who publicly advocates for ethnic cleansing. That you can't see the clear line distinguishing Nazis is a good reason for people to be afraid of YOU.
How well do you know Communist history, though?

Genocide's not exactly a foreign concept in Communist history.

I mean that sounds more like his Brother's MO. I am sure you can find find more people who were punched in the face by "White Trash" Rob than Mark.
Best line might have been "I haven't punched anyone since 1995"
