Lav, there are core activists that are paid, transported, supplied etc. Just today we saw a U-Haul and woman funded by Soros delivering supplies to activists: https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/09/u-haul-seen-distributing-shields-weapons-louisville-rioters-rented-holly-zoller-louisville-bail-project/
We have also seen video of money changing hands paying for attendance.
Of course there are many locals that are not paid, they are the "useful idiots" as the Soviets used to call them (Soviets were then referring Labor, Labour and Democrat politicians reporting to them).
