1. Curious about how many "Antifa" were arrested during Jan. 6th?

How many were seen in the many, many videos?

Any killed or injured?

Just thinkin'!

2. Antifa grabbed all of those poor, innocent Trump supporters

and used their bodies to beat up the cops and break out the windows in the Capitol!

3. I've never really believed that this organization exists.

Never heard of it, never knew anyone who had anything to do with it, nothing. Just a prop for the right to use as an excuse for being assholes.

4. It doesn't beyond a web presence and M$M mentions

8. Yes sir. From the fevered swamps of right wing media sent unadultered to your living

room by a compliant msm that adores any fiction over boringly fact.

13. That's because it is a philosophy...not an actual organization.

It exists in books and essays and things like that...guess that is why the Rethugs want to burn books.

21. Should have used a sarcasm thingy. lol

There for a while, Antifa was about all you heard. I can't remember the last time I heard anything about them. The Repukes can't even lie convincingly.

5. Oh never mind /s AG Wm. Barr had already announced there was no organization or group

named antifa.

6. It Is Just A Political Stance

And one would think an admirable one.....we fought WWll to thwart fascism in Europe.

So of course modern day fascists might have issues with people trying to thwart them.

I hope we anti Fascists prevail in this precarious time, when one party has turned largely fascist.

7. Anti-fascists WERE in Washington D.C. on Sedition Day. They are called Americans, the same

ones that stormed Normandy to kill fascism forever.

How did democratic loving folk in America permit the fascists to make believe anti-fascists the terrorists??

9. Right, since they were so prepared for Antifa violence

did they get confused when they saw that violent people were dressed up as MAGA? Antifa outsmarted them that easily?

[Biophilic]

10. Thanks, that gave me a laugh. Antifa will always outsmart them, I hope. nt

[bucolic_frolic]

11. My guess: Precipitating event was the DNC/RNC bomber

If Antifa scapegoating was the plan, someone failed between assembling the scruffy rabble and Commander-in-Chief inciting them. The causality was clear to everyone. Not very good planners.

12. our stable genius " TFG " attacking a imaginary organization & people !

[Initech]

14. Antifa is a made-up boogeyman used to fire up the MAGAs.

They exist in the same way that the Washington Generals exist - just for the Harlem Globetrotters to beat up on and that's about it.

16. Antigov at work..

[Aussie105]

17. It's just the MAGAt mindset.

We attack something that is worse than us, Antifa!
We are the Good Guys, Antifa are the bad guys!
We do all this to protect Democracy!
We want a fascist dictator for life to protect Democracy!
We come prepared with weapons of War to preserve the Peace!
We are the True Patriots, Antifa is the enemy within!

etc.

Personally, I think the Deep State and the Flying Monkeys are involved somewhere.

18. It's always projection

19. Antifa, the most extreme violent straw man that NEVER existed

Although in reality anyone with half a brain (MAGATS excluded of course ) should be an anti fascist
