This is why I support punching nazis. This is why, given the chance, I will always do what I can to make people suffer for being nazis. These ideas are not harmless. Those supporting or spreading them are not harmless. They are aiding and abetting a political philosophy that wants me, my family, and many of my friends dead simply because of who we are, and which, given the chance, will absolutely try to kill us.

Bolded fits basically every ideology if you think far enough. Especially ideologies which put people into different classes and tell one class to fight the other class. So am I allowed to punch a commie?

(I would've used a religious ideology but Support hates me already Kappa)

I thought the Mueller report largely vindicated MSM and showed that Fox and some others (Trump) were the main source of fake news, especially regarding Russian interference?

Of course you thought that, but it's not based in reality. The enemy of the people pushed the Russia collusion hoax for over two years. Mueller showed that the media was wrong.

While Mueller’s report didn’t establish a criminal conspiracy and was “unable” to conclude that obstruction of justice occurred — contrary to hours of speculation among cable-news pundits during Mueller’s long investigation — it also largely validated news accounts that Trump dismissed or disparaged.

Instead, at least in the Mueller team’s analysis, the fake news seems to have flowed not from the media but from the other direction. His report, released Thursday, cites multiple instances in which Trump and White House aides misled or lied to journalists or in public statements as the investigation was unfolding.

On the day of Mueller’s appointment, in May 2017, for example, White House aides said Trump reacted calmly to the news. In fact, according to Mueller’s report, Trump’s first reaction was anything but calm. According to notes taken by an aide, Trump responded by saying, “Oh my God. This is terrible. This is the end of my Presidency. I’m fucked. . . . This is the worst thing that ever happened to me.”

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders told reporters repeatedly in May 2017 that she personally had heard from “countless members of the FBI” that they were “grateful and thankful” to Trump for firing FBI director James B. Comey. That never happened, Mueller said. He wrote that Sanders later acknowledged to investigators that her comments were “not founded on anything.”

Trump also dictated a press statement saying that he had fired Comey based on the recommendations of Deputy Attorney General Rod J. Rosenstein. But Mueller found that Trump had already decided to fire Comey before Rosenstein had weighed in. Trump backed down and later publicly acknowledged he intended to fire Comey regardless of Rosenstein’s memo after unnamed Justice Department officials “made clear to him” that they would “resist” the bogus justification, Mueller said.

WASHINGTON — In the months before Kirstjen Nielsen was forced to resign, she tried to focus the White House on one of her highest priorities as homeland security secretary: preparing for new and different Russian forms of interference in the 2020 election.

President Trump’s chief of staff told her not to bring it up in front of the president.

Ms. Nielsen left the Department of Homeland Security early this month after a tumultuous 16-month tenure and tensions with the White House. Officials said she had become increasingly concerned about Russia’s continued activity in the United States during and after the 2018 midterm elections — ranging from its search for new techniques to divide Americans using social media, to experiments by hackers, to rerouting internet traffic and infiltrating power grids.

[...]

But in a meeting this year, Mick Mulvaney, the White House chief of staff, made it clear that Mr. Trump still equated any public discussion of malign Russian election activity with questions about the legitimacy of his victory. According to one senior administration official, Mr. Mulvaney said it 'wasn't a great subject and should be kept below his level.'

Two words: Vince Foster.

In the 2016 election, Trump had the advantage of 25 years of bullshit allegations targeting Hillary Clinton. He had the advantage of Fox News, which has been a transparent right-wing propaganda organization for as long as I've been alive. He had the advantage of the growth of the right-wing media sphere under Obama - there's no fucking reason Breitbart should be taken seriously by anyone, let alone be the largest online right-wing media source. Trump came into an environment where he could expect that the average republican would never have to take any negative coverage of him seriously. That's a really big advantage for a candidate any reasonable electoral system would spit out faster than an ipecac suppository.
