and all the (supposed) masked ICE agents kidnapping people on the
streets are what exactly?

I guess I don't see anyone from Antifa telling comics that they
have to get off the air. Actually I have not heard ONE single person
declare themselves as antifa, but plenty of MAGA saying that someone
was antifa because they didn't like the words coming out of their
mouths. And then actually striking out against that person.
Physically or politically...

When Antifa says fascism, they just mean anything not on the extreme
left. If they disagree with you, you are a fascist. There is no
relevance to actual fascism like you think about from WW2, and in
fact most of their "actions" are far closer to that fascism than
anything the "right" is doing.

What a lot of people fail to understand is that there is no
"antifa" organization. It's more of a philosophy (IMO). Sure, a
lot of marginalized people probably ascribe to the notion of antifa.
However, I would say that the majority of Americans are against
the idea of fascism.
Tell me you're in favor of fascism.

Utah seems an unlikely place to have Antifa cells.
But Howard from Big Bang Theory reminds us you don’t need to
experience something to know you want it:

Maybe you mean nihilism and not literally Antifa. There seems
to be a bumper crop of disaffected nihilists these days. Not
sure that fits neatly into a left/right political narrative.
More like there will always be people who think the world has
screwed them over and want to burn the whole thing down.

Odd that the majority of the people in my sphere of influence
that are espousing the goodness of antifa are all uniformly:
uneducated, pot smoking, un churched, and in many cases with
minor criminal records, but all of them are as poor as dirt it
seems. Poverty is what drove the Russian revolution. Perhaps
that is the driver here.
