Keith Ellison, the deputy director of the Democratic National Committee and congressman from Minnesota, recently ignited a Twitter firestorm when he tweeted out a picture of Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook, a book, he declared, that would “strike fear in the heart of” Donald Trump. Upon reading Antifa, it’s easy to see why the tweet generated so much controversy.
Since its release last August, the handbook, by Dartmouth lecturer Mark Bray, has garnered attention as one of the few windows available into the mind of the newly prominent Antifa movement. Bray makes clear from the beginning that the book isn’t an attempt at a neutral rehashing of facts, but rather “is an unabashedly partisan call to arms” for the purpose of equipping activists “with the history and theory necessary to defeat the resurgent Far Right.” He articulates clearly the revolutionary ideology of the far left and defends using violence in its service, from street brawls to kidnappings to assassinations. For those who do not desire to see the world reborn in the flames of global anti-capitalist revolution, the popularity of The Anti-Fascist Handbook should prove alarming.
Antifa’s somewhat obvious immediate goal is the eradication of (what Bray considers to be) fascism. However, conveniently for Antifa, Bray argues that anti-fascist action is not merely limited to academic and historical definitions of fascism. Instead, “anti-fascism is an illiberal politics of social revolutionism applied to fighting the Far Right, not only literal fascists.” This meaning speaks to the broader end of the revolutionary left that Bray sees Antifa as a part of. This end, Bray explains, is the total destruction of the current capitalist order via a violent “international popular uprising.”

Capitalism(a Marxist term) is also known as Free Enterprise(my preferred term).
Free Enterprise is what happens in a free society.
Antifa are anti-capitalism, therefore, anti-freedom, i.e. communists.
AntiFa: today’s Delusional Lying Leftist version of the Jacobin Reign of Terror (”La Terreur”) in the 1790’s.
AntiFa is just another Leftist terror group like the Islamic jihadists. All peas in the same pod.
Is enemy islamist ellison threatening President Trump?
Wake up patriots to new reality.

“Keith Ellison, the deputy director of the Democratic National Committee and congressman from Minnesota”
Bkmrk.
Ellison one of the new leadership faces of the democrat party. Ellison, Booker, harris, Warren. This is their four of a kind hand.
My Father spent 3 years of his life killing real Nazis, you (the picture of antifa) look like a Nazi to me.
In honor of my Father, I think I can take a few minutes out of my busy day to kill you.
Imagine two militant homosexual lesbian women and a male of less manly qualities than Obama... take three doses of liberation theology based on a perverted form of Black Christianity... Imagine people emboldened by the failure of Democrat Mayors and their lacky police chiefs who allow the “Community” to burn and loot without any law enforce; imagine the college campus leadership having their police stand down so that the community and leftist rioters can wage jihad against conservatives. But most of all just look about and see the hatred some have for Males and Whites in this Country and you have the founding ideals based upon hatred and greed. Just another Brownshirt or Red Commie group that wants to take power without being bound by laws. In a sainer world, the true men targeted by these lawless community organizers would be hunted down and purged by those who cherish the ideals of this Nation as envisioned by the founders... and republicans who fought a war, then voted to make equal and voted to give the right to vote.
Oh gee, another alynskiwanna be. Kill him now
.
How are they different from the Weathermen of the 60’s who called for the violent overthrow of the US government with particular emphasis on killing police???
