What you describe is disgusting and should be called out at every opportunity, but it sounds like Germany and Europe. The subculture here is so dominated by far left politics that even a whiff of anit-Palestinian sentiment is grounds for becoming persona non-gratia. Not on the west coast, east coast, or appalachia where many comrades of mine are organizing among the most hard core Trump folks. It sucks that what you've experience rears its head in what is called an antifa space, but in the U.S., we are lucky that is not tolerated. Problematic for U.S. incarnations is thinly disguised masculinity that has crowded out femme folks and in places where not many POC are involved, there is of course levels of internalized racism that just don't disappear because someone knows how to black bloc successfully. I would like to stress that on the west coast, the demographic is increasingly more and more POC that do not allow white folks to dictate their actions in spite of what the MSM is reporting. Anticap activists and organizers have many issues where, but antipathy for the Palestinian cause is one I've never had to experience. _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: https://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
