If that's a sign of Antifa, then there are even more of us than I realized.

We must be letting down our side, our garb cannot be antifa uniform?

Why aren’t these people in jail???

This is not free speech. It’s treason with murder threats.

forthcoming MAGA insurrection rallies. It's a very lame attempt (laughable, really) to cover their tracks, because they are so clever.

It's sort of like how The Third Reich routinely used the phrase "deportation to the east" in verbal and written communications as a euphemism for shipping Jews to Treblinka, Sobibor and Belzec for extermination.

14. How do we even set up an Antifa meeting?

I think it would be ill advised. It isn't like there is actually an organization or cells. It is just independent concerned citizens who want to stand up to fascists because they are tired of seeing brutality and terror used as a means to oppress others. In our current climate, those brave individuals who will stand up to terrorists are best remaining brave individuals without an organization.

But in my imagination, the fake Antifa meeting is announced as being on for official registered Antifa members that are hardcore Antifa members ready for action.

In my imagination no well intended people get caught up in this and it ends up being tons of violent Fascists with rage in their hearts and no way to tell who is who and a certainty that everyone around is their enemy. I have dark thoughts like this from time to time.
