Yeah, archive.today came out of gamergate, so there's a very good chance that the owner sees their mission as being to help jumpstart fascism. In a world where the truth is paywalled but the lies are free, becoming more useful on the left might have been a real problem for them.

 

Those videos also show police intervention, including a man now identified as police chief Scott McElree entering the crowd, grabbing and shoving a student and placing another student in a chokehold.

He then got beat up by a bunch of girls in response to his attack. He was plainclothes at the time of the attack, so they had no idea whether this was just some random murderer trying to kill one of them.

The problem that web.archive.org and ghostarchive.org both have is that they regularly fail to archive content

They're tightly tied to the administration. This is basically insider trading

 

Named the Fight Unlawful Conduct and Keep Individuals and Communities Empowered act, the legislation, known by its blunt acronym, would expand residents’ rights under state law to sue immigration officials for unconstitutional conduct.

 

The key thing is that the linked municipal report has, at the very end, a layout diagram for the yet-to-be-built concentration camp

Do that enough times, and rewild the fields growing corn and soy to feed the cattle, and the river will have more water in it.

Talking to no-longer-active people is a classic FBI technique for getting a mole into a group. They can find somebody they have leverage against, and use the promise of a suspended sentence to get them to work as an informant.
