1. I'm posting this because I know that Antifa is being scapegoated by the Trump administration and the GOP, and that this is done with the very intentional purpose of designating any left leaning person as a potential terrorist. First and foremost, I want to make one thing clear
2. And that is my purpose in regards to documenting what's going on is solely so that this racist society does not try to put the blame on Black people, because at the end or the day, we are always the ones who are the first to get killed or the first to have our rights taken
3. Away. That being said, I will not tolerate any widespread condemnation of Antifa or Marxism in my mentions. Even though I am posses, I am looking at these videos and I am seeing a bunch of very young white kids who were probably infants or not even born when 9/11 happened.
4. I've always said that I could not imagine growing up in that type of era and having to experience what I experienced as a teen/young adult their whole lives. Again, even though I am pissed that they are putting the lives of Black people at risk, I have empathy. I know that
5. They're hurting. But I also recognize that whoever is putting together these events are using these kids. The very fact that They're being told to show up at Black Lives Matter events is very intentional. The very fact that they're told to antagonize police, specifically at
6. These events is intentional. The fact that they're told to encourage Black Protesters to participate, at these events, is intentional. What this does is test the restraint of law enforcement, whom I don't think I need to remind y'all, already has very little restraint or
7. Regard for Black life, to the point where there are dead bodies in the ground, people become even more pissed and everything continues to spin out of control. This then scares white America into rallying behind Trump and letting him crack down on civil rights and left wing
8. Organizations and people even more. The end game isn't that the system is overthrown and we live in an even more just society, the end game is a LOT of dead bodies and America becoming even more authoritarian than it is right now. Additionally, none of this is by coincidence.
9. Trump has been trying to have left wing groups like Antifa designated as terrorists for years. On Thursday Trump warns that "When the looting starts, the shooting starts" and suddenly th3 next day large groups of young white people start showing up to Black Lives Matter
10. Events to break windows and encourage Black Lives Matter participants (another group which Trump loathes) to join In? And now suddenly you not only see conservative mouth pieces condemning antifa, but also local officials who feel as if they have to blame Antifa so that
11. Black Lives Matter organizers aren't blamed, and also a rise in Twitter bots who are mentioning antifa or pretending to be antifa supporters who are ok with what's going on? And all months before an election where folks are saying that Trump is doing poorly in regards
12. To getting the support that he needs to win? I'm sorry folks, but this is not all happening by coincidence, this type of thing has happened in other countries, and now it's happening here...
