      According to aggrieved online right guys, every left-of-center person who publicly protests Trump/Nazis/whatever is antifa.

      Antifa used to narrowly refer to a specific contingent of property-destroying left-anarchists, and they were controversial in the wider left

      Now it's become this catch-all term for anybody who... dislikes Nazis? This is impoverishment of language, and everyone is dumber for it.

          In the 50s, the term "communist" was liberally applied. We are now applying "Nazi" to pretty much everyone accused of white racism.

          In the 50s we had blacklists, got suspected communists (and their "sympathizers" fired, etc). Now people are cheering the same behavior.

          Antifa has grown & changed since the 2016 election. Based on who they do/don't target, my guess is most new Antifas are angry Clintonites.
