Are we letting Trump & Co. "brand" Antifa? [View all]
I think there has been a gradual increase in defensiveness about the use of Antifa as a unifying term of resistance. Is the obvious effort to negatively brand the term succeeding? Would you feel okay about being a part of Antifa? Would you feel okay about seeing people show up to a protest with a flag showing the Antifa symbol?
Is anyone resisting this effort? Do we have any Democratic politicians willing to say "I am Antifa, we are all Antifa?"
Are we afraid to be called Antifa (Anti-Fascist)?
