Incidentally, that was a downtown neighbourhood and antifa were there in minutes. They didn’t drive in from the suburbs. Antifa is a primarily working class and lower middle class phenomena, and not at all monotone.
The basic story here is that the American working class are not going to just quietly stand there and take it while fascists threaten to enslave and kill them.
On the bright side, the fascists have no idea how much of a sleeping giant they’ve awoken.
But the workers need help.
The reason why the working class aren’t constantly in the streets is related to the reason why they don’t vote as much as the liberal commentariat thinks they should: they are already heavily oppressed, and most of them are too busy staying alive to spare resources towards political struggle.
Protest is expensive, and the working class are broke.
