Not only were they outnumbered by counter-protesters by a large margin, they couldn't get a cab or an Uber home to Mommy's basement.

I'm surprised there's even a conservative presence in Philly. It's a major stronghold of the left.

In a related story, leftist counter protesters at the same event savagely beat a man they thought was a "Proud Boy."

Proud Boys aren't a racist organization. Vigilante thugs, yes. Racist, no. Some of its adherents have a high melanin count.

LOL, I love the headline "accidentally attacked" as if the attack were accidental rather than the target of their very deliberate attack being accidentally misidentified.

SPLC would disagree with you.

What I read was that some Proud (but dimwitted) Boys ran into the counter protestors and started fighting.

Had to be rescued by the police.

Meanwhile back here on Planet Reality, what actually happened was a local passer-by was mistaken for a Proud Boy thug by the Antifa thugs who proceeded to pound the snot out of an innocent person, because that's what they do.

He was not badly hurt. Got into a cab and left.

Head butted by one guy who was arrested.
