Antifa doesn’t exist. It’s a straw man label to get what they want.
Antifa is just short for "anti-fascism". Everyone in the world should fall under that label.
If the government considers anti-fascism to be a threat, that speaks volumes about the government.
Yes i know. But as an official organization like they talk about it doesnt exist. I know because id join it if it did exist.
I’ve been looking for antifa for years. I bought the t-shirts and the pins, have gone to the rallies, signed the petitions, etc, but I can’t find the antifa.
Some antifa, but nowhere enough antifa.
We could really use some organised antifa right now. It’s not there yet, though.
Any protester is antifa. It's a suppression tactic.
All the combined allied forces at WW2 where antifa.
Every single US military member swears an oath which essentially amounts to being Antifa
but will they follow that oath?
lol
