The internet smells something fishy in a Minnesota couple's story that their house was targeted by 'Black Lives Matter and Antifa' arsonists who supposedly spray-painted 'Joe Biden 2020' on their garage as they set fire to their home.

Facebook user Deanna Molla claimed in a public, since-deleted post that her house was targeted just before 4:00 AM this morning. All members of her family, including her dogs, are safe.

As the story spread on Twitter, many commenters opined that something seemed off about the couple's claim of radical, Biden-supporting Antifa terrorists randomly targeting their home. For starters, the circled "A" on the couple's garage is a symbol of anarchists, and it seemed highly unlikely to Twitter users that anarchists would destroy a home, leave proof that they were the ones responsible, and simultaneously voice support for Joe Biden, who is hardly a radical politician.

Some suspected that the couple had ulterior motives for staging the attack, with some hypothesizing it might be a case of insurance fraud.

For others, the story was reminiscent of an infamous photo of a man claiming his driveway was vandalized by black people who spray-painted "Blacks Rule" on his driveway.

Police say the investigation is active and they are not ruling the possibility of insurance fraud or other ulterior motives out.

Even if they weren't clearly lying, all this would imply that one person with some pretty contradictory beliefs did the whole thing.

Would ANTIFA burn something down?
Yes.

Would ANTIFA march through residential streets threatening residents?
Sure.

Would ANTIFA spray-paint "Biden 2020" to make sure all the viewers at home know who it is supporting their actions…?
X to doubt.

Hoax vandalism always looks the same, no matter who it is doing it.

Oh, I agree. I'm extremely critical of both antifa and blm but frankly this does seem fake.

What immediately caught my suspicion was the line, "thank god our main house is safe". Because I was thinking, 'This is going a bit far, to burn down your own home just to frame the left. Ah. But then…

There is a definite possibility of insurance fraud. Still, it wouldn't be surprising if it was the work of LARPers who have no idea what an anarchist actually is.

Even if it was just anarchist LARPers, they wouldn't be writing "Joe Biden" all over it.
