It’s just so crazy that there is even a news designation of “extremist beat” in the first place.

The parallels to the Nazi Brownshirts are difficult to ignore. This has all happened before…
On a different note, I can’t wrap my head around the stupidity of the “Anti-antifa” shirt being worn in that clip. There’s an “anti-communist” symbol below it. It’s like the person who designed that (and the tool who bought it) don’t know what any of these words mean. Yet they believe so strongly in… whatever this is… that they will go to war over it.
It’s meaningless misdirected toxic masculinity all summarized in one nonsensical T-shirt.
