8. Thanks for the history link

But what I meant was that 45 labeled the riots after George Floyd’s death were orchestrated by some organization run by anti fascists. They called them antifa probably because they knew they were on the wrong side of history but that the idiots shouting “Antifa” were some kind of terrorists. Your link did point that out. Violence used to stop fascism.

What I’m trying to say is that protest marches after George Floyd’s murder were mostly peaceful. Even here in Switzerland, we held a couple of covid aware silent protests. The riots were caused by provocateurs on both sides because people suck. Those screaming about antifa and BLM creating riots, looting and property damage were pointing fingers instead of finding out how systematic racism hurts everyone!
