Video shows the Fascists in their area. Anyone up for a game of “Name that Fascist?”
On the 24th of May, fascist pro-Trump, paid Youtube influencer Kaitlyn Bennett brought dozens of MAGA-hatted and other Fascists to Lakeland, FL’s farmer’s market. A news site estimated 80 fash, though that’s only likely if a significant number of them were not in Trump gear or other Fascist uniform. Someone on the scene counted roughly 40 visible fash.
This was an escalation stemming from a prior appearance by Kaitlyn at the same farmer’s market that earned her an informal trespass warning after a storm of complaints from many vendors. Kaitlyn often tries to pose as an anti-Trump protester, best known for her “Legalize MS-13” sign when she showed up at Lakeland’s Mayday 50501 protest and was responsible for someone else being arrested. She then tries to “interview” people and also has a record of harassing those who are not white. Maybe we should call her “KKKaitlyn?”
De-escalators were on the scene to protect the vendors not to counterprotest the fash with their fake “free speech” and “pro-God” rally. It appeared that the Fascists built up and then dispersed without actually doing much of anything. The loudest thing in their area was some kind of street preacher, unknown if he was part of them or independent.
