Antifa is NOT a movement of Anarchists or Communists. Nor has it ever been.
It’s just that these 3rd Party and No Party individuals, on the fringes of American life, seem to be incapable of starting any real lasting or effective movements of their own.
So Anarchist/Communists always make an attempt to hijack any movement that leans even slightly left of the moderate secular Democrat Party establishment. (Not that it is perfect, but it is the most effective oppositional tool we have to combat the GOP Neo-Nazi Establishment.)
Anarchist/Communists did this during Seattle 99. They did this during the Anti-War movement of 2002-2003. They did this during Occupy Wall Street. They are doing this now during the Black Lives Matter movement, the Women’s March, and the Resistance itself.

And so I say directly to anyone who considers themselves a part of this tiny minority of Anti-Americans:
The Police and the Alt-Right don't need your help smashing store windows to paint OUR movements as destructive.
We don't need your help giving Patriot Prayer and the Proud Boys a justifiable target for their Hate and Murder to paint OUR movements as Violent.
And we don’t need your help giving the Right Wing Hate Media Mob a freebie when it comes to painting the Democrat Party as the ‘Radical Left’. The GOP in America is already a Alt-Riech Authoritarian network that sees anything left of a Christo-Fascist White Nationalist Dictatorship as ‘Radical’.
You can just fuck right off. You are not welcome in OUR Resistance.
We The People.
