When the FBI called me based on an "anonymous tip," they asked me if I was "antifa." I told them the truth.https://twitter.com/ztsamudzi/status/903670080570929152 …

The idea that "antifa" is an organized movement is laughable. Sure there are some affinity groups. But there's no membership card.

Groups like Vanguard are actually organized groups and actually committed a terror attack where someone died.

But we are so given to authoritarianism that we can't accept that affinity groups assemble as-needed to combat hate.

In Charlottesville, antifa were lauded as heroes because of no black bloc and a clearly-branded Nazi enemy.

You can call "antifa" terrorists. The truth won't change. People will still oppose racial violence; in Cville we proved racists instigate.

I'm going to start calling the Red Sox fans I know "Resofa." I already call Yankee fans "Fascists."

Should I @ the FBI and let them know that I, too, am anti-fascist? I mean, if they're curious about it, I'm not embarrassed to tell them.

It'd be great if everyone who's anti-fascist would do the same, so the FBI would know we're still all expecting them to be the same.

Rare situ where it's true that if you're not for us you're against us. + other side believes if you're not for them you're against them

Except they kill ppl think are against them as we are just angry and dismayed

I am Spartacus. Because fucking obviously fascism is bad and I am anti it. Was Tony Benn *so* right that we keep fighting even this battle?

That's the point. Definition of an "antifa" will expand as needed...

The public could probably use an analysis of the relationship between antifa and communism
