    As soon as they announced that “antifa is a terrorist organization” I then knew exactly what they were up to. So the narrative was “fascism is good, and your a threat if you try to stop it”.

    I’ve been waiting for the ideal time to unmask myself, and now seems as good a time as any.

    It is I. I am the president and CEO of Antifa, and I rule with an iron fist.

    I’ll take your questions now.

      Hi! Yes, I have a question.

      Grocery prices have been hitting hard lately, and I’m looking into alternative meat sources. I would like to know if I were to join your company, could we literally eat the rich? Or, second best, take all their stuff?

        God knows what wierd chemicals they are marinating in, and most of them are busy amassing private armies and creating microstates while working to erode the checks that currently limit their ability to essentially act as actual sovereign citizen, so it wouldn’t exactly be very calorically rewarding compared to the effort, but…

        Obvious conservative plant question. Collective action itself is the iron fist with which I rule, thus a Union would be redundant.

    [security contractors joined by officers hailing from across the federal government] converged for a mission dubbed “Operation Diligent Valor,” authorized under Executive Order 13933, purportedly to apprehend “anarchists and left-wing extremists” who’d been driven by Floyd’s murder to target U.S. monuments commemorating slave owners and Confederate traitors — dangerous individuals, Trump said, advancing a “fringe ideology” painting the U.S. government as “fundamentally unjust.”

    Irony is dead.

      My p-doc is from Vietnam and went on an unsolicited rant on how you should never trust the government. Trump is literally the inverse of sanity.

    Every article that says the word “anarchist” should go out of their way to say that its not illegal to be a capitalist, a communist, or an anarchist. Its a legitimate political ideology thats been around for centuries.

      Actually of all the “others” or “out groups” that exist, anarchists are the ones I cannot fucking take.

      Irony begin that I’m more aligned to their politics that I am to any of the others, I’ve just never met one that I like. Meta irony being that that is probably the most anarchic position to hold on other anarchists but I wouldn’t out money on that.

        That’s strange. I’ve never met an anarchist that I didn’t like. They’re usually the kindest and most selfless people.

        Maybe try going to a mutual aid action, like Food Not Bombs?

      I mean, if they were going to try and burn down the Capitol Building, clearly the right people to have blamed would be us Canadians. We do have a bit of history doing just that. 😏
