Redneck Revolt is 'Antifa' in the sense that they adopt nearly none of their street tactics.https://twitter.com/jjmacnab/status/1020040257301983232 …

We can do one of two things: - use "antifa" in the way that we use "The Resistance," that is, as a concept and broad movement, or - treat it as a specific body with a specific definition based on its actions. You can't do both.
Obviously, there is no factual basis for the second option
So that leaves the first, and it would be awfully nice if the media would realize this and think of "antifa" as it thinks of "The Resistance." The #Resistance has no leaders, no structure.
It's a hashtag and a social movement. Arguably, the #Resistance has even clearer goals: the deposition of Donald Trump and his compatriots. It had more formalism, perhaps, in how it has manifest through the Women's March ans March for Our Lives.
Imagine if we indicted the #Resistance everytime a wine mom got popped for a DUI and had a resistance bumper sticker on her car
Anyhow, this is a rant to say: "antifa" has become a baba yaga. And the thing abous babas yaga is that once that status is achieved, it's best to let the legend do the legwork.https://twitter.com/jjmacnab/status/1020042825960833024?s=19 …
