      It is.

      And most Americans won’t realize it has happened until it personally affects their lifestyle, which will be far too late.

            There is certainly something to be said about people asking for someone to fix something rather than fixing it themselves.

            It wasn’t exactly hard to just comment on the image what was said. Multiple people pretty much did this.

              Because the disruption is the point. Not fixing a problem. It’s literally in the CIA’s manual, and I guess the mods really don’t want folks to know that. Pretty suspicious.

        Thanks I know what it means but there is no existing antifa group, right? I understand a lot of people on lemmy consider themselves anti-facist and that’s nice but they’re not members of an organized group.

        What I’m getting at is the executive order is targeting something that doesn’t actually exist irl. I’m guessing this EO is a reaction to protestors in Oregon during Trump’s first term who were wearing masks and calling themselves antifa. Was it a real organization then? Seemed like a bunch of kids to me with no actual leadership structure.

            There is no such group or anything.

            There actually are many groups in the US which have “Antifa” in their name: for instance Rose City Antifa, NYC Antifa, Philly Antifa, Atlanta Antifa, among many others. Obviously this new (completely unprecedented btw) “domestic terrorist organization” designation is also going to be used against many people who aren’t affiliated with any such group.

          There are many antifa groups. Anti fascist action is best preformed in groups. It’s dangerous work.

          See also “affinity group”

            We should kick him out if he’s not paying, how else will we stay organized?

            He can go join the fascists.

      It’s not an organization. It’s a boogeyman they’re using to try to justify imprisoning and murdering liberals.

    Since it isn’t a real thing, they have all the space required to define it by deciding who is and who isn’t. They’ll just keep saying people are antifa without evidence or proof. Once gossip and opinion started being treated as fact, this became inevitable.

      They’ve already said that it’s a named organization. So nobody is Antifa.

      Maybe next Trump will declare the Illuminati a terrorist organization.
