The village of New Paltz, NY rolled their collective eyes this week when several residents woke up to find their cars defaced by an aspiring media personality hawking the ideas of race wars and white nationalism.

A New Paltz resident recently took to Facebook to share the unwelcome news. "Someone stuck this thing to my car. 1, It's for some white lives matter nonsense. 2, It's a sticker, and it's peeling off in the annoying way. Anyone know who is doing this?", they wrote. The sticker, which won't be shared here to avoid further spreading the hateful propaganda, led to some very disturbing content.
