Up until recently it’s been rare to see conservative dull-wittedness on a mass scale quantified this way.
Sing it with me now…
(I never noticed before that Gotham City’s very own Penguin is standing behind T****'s right shoulder)
“Antifa” is like “the deep state”, “the war on Christmas” or “voter fraud”-- it’s an invented bogeyman conservatives need to justify all their anger and hatred.
I mean. . . if it just turned out everyone to the left of center in the USA was basically a decent hard-working person who celebrated religious holidays, had backyard cookouts and felt sick inside at the thought of pedophilia, then conservatives would be a bunch of raving lunatics. But if left are all angry hateful monsters then conservatives are justified in being angry hateful monsters.
That’s a good point to throw to their face: ALL their grandparents were antifa, either by fighting directly or by working hard to support those who did.
Nearly a century taught nothing to these fuckers as they found nothing better to do than morphing into the very enemy their grandparents sacrificed their lives against.
Antifa existed before American reactionaries realised they did, but not in the mythological form that they created.
I have an antifa t-shirt that I got in 2013.
You can narrow in on Proud Boys based on the google search : how to be “master of one’s domain” and “how to take out sexual frustration in a fraternity”
