This passage, for example:

"Preppy looking "country club Republicans," well-dressed social conservatives, and white Evangelicals in Jesus caps were standing shoulder to shoulder with QAnon cultists, Second Amendment cosplay commandos, and doughy, hardcore white nationalists."

Not a significant representation of the Black, Latino or Asian American communities. Almost exclusively white. Not a good look.
