      Rather than another critique of Antifa what I'd like to see is a credible alternative plan for defeating contemporary fascism.

      Problem with Antifa is that when everything is said & done there is NO strategy for defeating fascism. Street fighting is not a strategy.

      There are strategic possibilities that move beyond the electoral, if that is what you mean by 'normal politics.' Non-violent resistance...

      Mass civil disobedience... Political strikes. We can talk about when & where they can be strategically used.

      This is not first time we have seen fascist terror: civil rights movement faced it regularly. We just thought it couldn't happen again.

      But how is this different from bombing Birmingham church & killing children; Goodman, Chaney & Schwerner; assassination of MLK & others?

      What worries me that this time fascist violence seems to have allies in the White House. A very disturbing situation.

          It would be foolish not to be worried. But that doesn't change political tools we have which give us best chance of winning.

          And don't forget that fascists didn't just have allies in Jim Crow state & local governments; they often owned them, lock, stock & barrel.
