Now that one year has passed, what can we say about the jarring events of January 6, 2021? If you watched the FBI Most Wanted TV series last September 28, you would have seen an episode called “Patriots,” containing the worst insurrectionist stereotypes and narratives.
These misguided “patriots” were cold-blooded murderers, and just waiting for the moment to release their wrath, still taking their orders from former President Trump. After all, wasn’t he the one who told them to, “Stand back and stand by”? (Yes, the line was actually quoted in the show.)
I discovered the episode earlier in the week during my COVID recovery, looking for a way to pass the time, and having no clue what the particular show (or even the series) was about.
