Did the show their membership cards? Were they wearing their official antifa uniforms? Did they talk to an antifa general? The media is determined to define antifa as an organization, when there's no organization at all.

Or: "If Ford Fisher says it, it MUST be true."

Who is this guy? How did he know it was antifa, especially since antifa does not actually exist?

Why would you post this crap?
