White supremacists want to weaponize coronavirus, DHS says

White people are genetically suppository, or something. They are not all that good at spelling, have had to get their letters from Romans and whatnot. But now, they seem to be on to something. From Forward.Com [forward.com], an indepth look.

Multiple white supremacists have discussed using the novel coronavirus as a biological weapon, Yahoo News reported on Saturday, citing a document from a division of the Department of Homeland Security.

An intelligence brief issued Feb. 24 by the Federal Protective Service, which protects federal government buildings, claimed that “White Racially Motivated Violent Extremists have recently commented on the coronavirus stating that it is an ‘OBLIGATION' to spread it should any of them contract the virus.”

The memo, which was based on online conversations on the messaging app Telegram that the government had gained access to, claimed that some extremists had proposed targeting government offices as well as minority communities. Among the ideas proposed included having infected white nationalists purposefully spend time in non-white neighborhoods in order to infect others, as well as leaving “saliva on door handles” and spitting on elevator buttons in office buildings.

So while you are practicing social distancing, and wearing your cute mask, be on the lookout for Nazis licking door handles. And Pumphandles. Und der Griffe ziehen, Lecken machen. Untermenschen, verhaltishcenichlich.
