Who is antifa??? More FUD. This is, in my opinion, a very lazy and poorly researched argument against the anti-fascist movement. Especially in a country where crime reporting is run through an institution with ties to white supremacy and roots in crushing strikes and capturing escaped slaves. Show me the data. Show me the pattern of left wing terror.

All it takes is a few dudes with an iron cross tattoo to fudge the numbers here or there. It's really not uncommon, again, if you look at what happens often, not what happens loudest.
