Imagine wrangling up the little bit of courage you have to throw on your mask and ditch your mom's house only to run into one of the greatest mixed-martial artists to ever live.

"Seems like once again people need to be reminded that antifa is not an organization it is short for "anti-fascist" and it includes literally anyone who doesn't tolerate fascists or fascism. And black bloc is a tactic not an organization. Antifa has no membership, no groups, no meetings, no list of members, no clubs, no holidays, no practices, nothing other than the belief in being against fascism. Are you pro-fascism? No? Congrats you’re antifa.
Trump “declaring it a terrorist org” is just a short handed way of charging all protestors with terrorism because how do you prove you aren’t in an organization that doesn’t exist? Stuff like this is going to get your friends killed. Take a stand right now and also don’t contribute to the vilification of antifa."

because of the prejudice the wingnuts has attached to antifa.

They have adulterated the core meaning of so many English words and phrases, it's a wonder we can all still communicate.
