Trump is right, Antifa are terrorists; they always were (but how do you identify them and root them out?)
Washington Examiner ^ | 06/01/2020

The word “anti-fascist” began as a lie. It remains a lie today.

Clueless commentators, ignorant of its history, have been known to refer to the "antifa" movement as “strictly principled anti-fascists,” or a group that “protests fascism.” In fact, this is a movement of violent extremists whose philosophy traces back to the early 20th century.

The riots now raging in U.S. cities are not about police misconduct. They haven’t been for many days. The senseless and callous police killing of George Floyd inspired peaceful protests at first, but now it has become an excuse for a troupe of professional revolutionaries and marauders. They use these incidents in order to flex their muscle and test how far their impressionable recruits are willing to go in breaking the law, as Jared Monroe discovered upon infiltrating one such group in Utah.

The Soviets coined “anti-fascism” as a propaganda term some nine decades ago. The Soviet regime needed to develop a message that would mollify credulous Western democrats and get them to stop viewing Bolshevism as a threat.

"Anti-fascism" suited this vision perfectly. It conveyed the impression that Stalinism was not diametrically opposed to the ideals of normal, decent people in free societies. It was a brilliant rhetorical device — a living practical application of the false-choice fallacy: “You’re against Nazis? Well, then, you must be with us — or at least, we deserve the benefit of the doubt.”

Implicit here is the idea that if you don't sympathize, you must be a fascist, so you deserve whatever violence they inflict upon you.

On these terms, “antifa” demands that when its black-hooded thugs take to the streets to wound and maim passersby in the name of some nice-sounding stated cause — anti-racism, anti-sexism, anti-greed, anti-corruption — they deserve the sympathy of their countrymen.

You ID them by DNA.

You take their S0r0$ money and use it to pay for their incarceration or transport to the commie country of their choice.

Circular reasoning. If you don’t know who they are, how can you seize their cell phone records?

Back in the day, the *real* FBI would have been all over them.

And their prepaid by certain Lefist financiers (Soros) LG burner phones (numbers known to fed gov, and scannable under the Terrorist statement, zero warrant. Like it or not).

Other ways of identifying are being done— not to be discussed on public forum for obvious reasons. This is an insurgency, suffice to say the perpetrators are agitators who provoke riot and attacks on property and people. They are not protestors any more— not since the org is id’d as Terrorists. Gonna get really real for these “revolutionary” communists partnered with the same (revcom.org)... ultra communists even CPUSA wants nothing to do with them.

I want to remember that while back there was an ANTIFA roster released, may have been wikileaks.

You know that the GPS data of every phone in a triangulated area will be pulled?

Freeze all of the bank accounts and assets of George Soros. If it stops, that’s the person you execute. Nah, just kill him anyway.
