On Monday, just one day after the Republican Party staged a Horst Wessel-style memorial for Charlie Kirk in Glendale, Arizona, President Donald Trump signed an executive order designating “antifa” a “domestic terrorist organization.”
The order claims that antifa is a “militarist, anarchist enterprise” that uses “illegal means to organize and execute a campaign of violence and terrorism nationwide.”
Antifa, as even FBI Director Christopher Wray was forced to admit in a September 2020 congressional hearing, is not an organization but a broad current of opposition to fascism. “Antifa is an ideology, not an organization,” said Wray, who also testified that the bureau had no data showing any lethal violence committed by the organization.
Since antifa as a formal organization does not exist, Trump’s executive order amounts to a blanket authorization to brand political dissent and opposition to his fascist regime as “terrorism.”
Regardless of whether or not Antifa exists…
Trump is officially anti-anti-fascist - meaning he’s officially a fascist.
Re-read that: the POTUS just declared himself a fucking fascist.
And for some reason, there is zero reaction anywhere in the country. None. Zilch. Nada.
And that my friends is the best proof that the excuse the pro-gun crowd kept pulling out after every school shooting that the 2nd Amendment was necessary to ensure a tyrant could never rule the country, and the deaths of tens of thousands of children every year was an unfortunate consequence but a necessary evil to ensure the American democracy could never be subverted, was utter shit.
The guys with the guns do nothing - either because they never intended to, or because they are the fascists.
After the Trump regime collapses, if the American republic is still a thing, the 2nd Amendment needs to be dispensed with, and the gun nuts disarmed, Australian-stylee.
