Likewise, I supported the Anti-Nazi League in the late 70’s, which is a direct forerunner of Antifa, it’s literally the same thing, and I, like many back then who opposed skinhead bootboys with extremist views who were supporters of the NF, the National Front, were not ‘extreme Left’, or even Communists; dammit, I didn’t even vote for the Labour Party, who are socialists, but anyone with a properly aligned moral compass would stand up against the sort of rhetoric thrown out by the NF then, and Drumph and the MAGA-cultists now, it’s only right and proper.
I do wear Antifa badges, a neck-warmer thing, and use the Antifa logo as my avatar, although it’s not so widely known here in the U.K., mainly because our society hasn’t become as polarised as it has in the US; I do fear for the future over there, it’s like seeing a whole bunch of dystopian science fiction novels and movies playing out in real time and in the real world.
As an ancient proverb says, ‘may you live in interesting times’…
“ “retweeting anti-Antifa grifter Andy Ngo.”
If you’re anti-anti-fascist, doesn’t that just make you a fascist?”
Yup, and I always give a wry smile when I see such comments.
