Assassinated or in fear of being assassinated since the fbi, the organization explicitly built to assassinate communists, is still around.
I can see why you're confusing the two, but the USA is not Russia.
Tell that to Fred hampton.
Not a lot of good outcomes from joining the Black Panthers, tbh. They even killed their own accountant on at least one occasion.
A lot of people consider his death an assassination in part of the COINTELPRO operations between 1958 to 1971 at the height of the USA and USSR cold war, but it's worth stating that the escalation to violence was due to one of the present BPP members firing a round while authorities had the apartment surrounded.
Do you have any examples that aren't over half a century ago?
Being against a specific militant group doesn't make you a white supremacist. It doesn't even make you white.
Spreading white supremacist viewpoints does make you a white supremacist.
Let's for the sake of argument say that hypothetical were true. White supremacists like ice cream and puppies, hate nuclear annihilation, so unless you're some kind of white supremacist I guess you hate puppies and ice cream and you want all life to go extinct?
...are you actually just mask off arguing that repeating nazi propaganda like the false idea that hamptons crew shot first does not make you a nazi?
Do you people ever self reflect, even a little?
Listen, it's well understood that the events of Fred Hampton's assassination were wrongful, but it's also entirely unsurprising if a heavily armed militant organization use the weapons they parade around to defend their headquarters.
Fuck those police, fuck the nazis, fuck the KKK, fuck Trump and Musk, but I'll die on this hill 10,000 fucking times before I side with the Black Panthers. Fuck the Black Panthers.
Yeah, like I said, white supremacist. At least you're honest about it.
Give it 6 more months of Trump and Russia will look like a paradise compared the the US.

Hmmmm
You're accusing a dead US Attorney General (cause of death unkown), who prosecuted Russian Mafia, of being a communist killed by the state?
Could it be, I don't know, maybe the Russian Mafia?
The Russian mafia and the Trump administration are indistinguishable.
Only if you ignore the pecking order.
