!BEWARE!
They come, they see, they conquer - violently.
Since the start of 2026, masked minions have rampaged through our community and our homes, spewing blatant chaos and terror!
Under the guise of authority and of duty, these uniformed and adorned culprits stoke the deepest bowels of diabolism – in broad daylight. They come in hordes, armed, incensed...and determined.
They don't seek to cloak themselves with darkness.
They don't slither stealthly through the streets.
They don't whisper in the stillness of the night.
They come knocking during tea time. They watch your children as they walk to school. They listen to the calls you make to your grandmother. They wait until you are on your knees praying before bedtime.
Protect yourself! Protect your loved ones! Protect your neighbors.
Fight ice with fire. Be ready to incinerate:
- Dogmas
- Institutions
- The Patriarchy
- Your relationships
- Your party allegiance
- Your neutrality
- Your apathy
- ...and so much more!
at any given moment. Be prepared to ACT NOW.
Remain vigilant. They are everywhere.
Prepare yourself, your loved ones, your neighbors.
Together, we'll watch it all burn down to the ground.
Together, we'll make sure evil burns in hell.
Together, we can rebuild.
