Twitter has suspended several popular Antifa accounts with more than 71,000 followers combined following Inauguration Day riots.

At least four accounts tied with the militant group have been yanked offline — @JewishWorker, @RevAbolition, @RevAbolitionNYC and @TheBaseBK, the account for the anarchist center in Bushwick, Brooklyn.

Archived web pages of the accounts show they shared more than 71,000 followers and dated as far back as 2012.

LOL

Twitter should have just left them alone. It is just one more example that they interfered in the last election.

Allowing Antifa while banning the President and his supporters.

They’re no longer needed. The dems succeeded in stealing the White House and senate. Look for a brutal crack down on these useful idiots.

“Anfita goes back all the way to 2012? I had no idea.”

I think they got their start during the occupy wall street protest in 2011.

Notice they only did this because Antifa held riots against Biden after the inauguration.

They were fine with Antifa and their violence when it was directed against Trump.

ANTIFA goes back to Germany 1923, at least.

They removed them before the Senate impeachment circus so that it looks like only Trump people were twittering about revolutions and riots.

Exactly. And this can't be true:
"@TheBaseBK, the account for the anarchist center in Bushwick, Brooklyn"

They have been around since the 1999 WTO riots and were present during the Iraq War (but rarely rioted during that time because no one would put up with their crap, including the rest of the Antiwar movement).

Now that Biden is in, ANTIFA will go dark web, so the death squads can operate.

Many who started as Antifa in Germany, switched to the SA. I guess the Nazis had better beer and snappier uniforms.

Yep. Going against the government NOW is verboten. Dissent just became unpatriotic again. Overnight. Literally.

Twitter figured out something the FBI and CIA hasn’t.
