I Am Antifa!

We Must All Be Antifa Now.

It's so much fun watching antifa eat what's left of Donald Trump's brain. I doubt that Stephen Miller has gotten around to explaining what happened to Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini at the end of their reigns. It would be a difficult conversation, and I expect that both of them will do their best to avoid it.

Antifa does exist, by the way. Have a look at the picture above. The place is, appropriately, Tom Paine plaza, next to the Municipal Services Building and across the street from City Hall in Philadelphia. As for the time, I'm not sure. I think it was probably early in Trump's first term, perhaps around the time of the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville.

I loved the little camera I was using at the time - it managed to produce this picture under almost impossible lighting conditions - but I'm afraid that its ability to tell time left something to be desired. If anyone who was at this rally recalls when it took place, please feel free to let me know. But if you're too busy giving Donald Trump nightmares, I'm okay with that.

You'll notice that the antifa in the picture are armed only with words. Let me direct your attention to their platform in the chyron running across the bottom of their banner: anti-racist, anti-capitalist, feminist. I'm okay with all of that, but you don't have to be. 

The main thing, at this point, is to be antifascist. The great grandchildren of Hitler's brown shirts and Mussolini's black shirts are running amok on the streets of American cities. We need to stop the madness and get our country back.

I am antifascist. I am antifa. I hope you are too.
