Hey, we get it. When you’re writing ‘news’ you want to get people’s attention, otherwise, why bother, right? And every once in awhile we’ll even write something a little silly (that’s what we do, after all) BUT sometimes we come across something that’s even too silly for us.
Case in point.
ANTIFA Leader: "November 4th […] millions of antifa supersoldiers will behead all white parents" https://t.co/BxmySHWi92

From the Gateway Pundit:
Tom Bloke, considered to be one of the leaders of the domestic terrorist group ANTIFA, took to Twitter today to threaten violence against “white parents” and “small business owners”.
Sounds super scary, right? And honestly, it very well could be true HOWEVER, we have our doubts because @HashtagGriswold did a teensy bit of investigative reporting.

Totally.
*it's not

Probably not.
Gateway Pundit published a story about a murder threat from an "Antifa leader" who is transparently just an Internet troll. pic.twitter.com/f6hy3WsTAm

Hey, there are lots of Internet trolls and anyone could make that mistake, right? Heck, we spend many a day writing about those same trolls … of course, we’re usually MOCKING them and not taking them seriously but we get it.
You know, just one of those antifa leaders who describe themselves as "pro-gamer" and "pro-consumer" pic.twitter.com/aqtJOt7ajs

It’s those ears man, that’s PROOF he’s totally serious about these supersoldiers.
Also, lol, Lucian What'shisface has no idea what a "subtweet" is pic.twitter.com/LlJ5275B09

This was what Gateway Pundit based their story on?
Hrm.
That's a "reply." A subtweet would be if I said a unnamed alt-right member of the WH press corps was an embarrassment to the profession.

So apparently a Soros-Bunny-Ear’d avi guy who doesn’t understand how Twitter works is the mastermind behind some violent attack on white parents this Saturday.
Alrighty then.
