There were some nuts at the incident at the Capitol, make no mistake. Anyone who thought it was a good idea to smash windows and doors, for instance. And then there was Buffalo Guy. He’s a Q Anon conspiracy loon. Sadly he’s also a pretty well documented Trump supporter. But his whackadoodlery is *straight* out of the far left; the same people who screech and shriek about “Christians taking over the government” will bend over backwards – and then forwards – to *not* laugh when they hear this sort of nonsense out of a “Person of color.” The same people who thought that Nathan Phillips was a respectable “elder” for banging on his drum and chanting gibberish directly into the ear of a child will mock this guy for having beliefs that are fundamentally no better or worse. Me… I can point and laugh at both. Spout nonsense, get laughed at.

Here’s the thing, though. Buffalo Guy is one Jake Angeli, who has put himself out there as an actor. Is this all an act? Honestly seems more likely than he believes the line of BS he’s running here. But then… people really do believe that sort of thing. His Wikipedia page makes for entertaining and “losing faith in the rationality of mankind” reading.
