It appears the US congress has just proposed (edited) a bill that declares “Antifa” a terrorist organization.

This doesn’t even make sense as Antifa isn’t an organization, but just a shared name for anyone that self-identifies as a person opposed to and willing to fight fascism 🤦‍♂️

Stay safe out there!

Note: SLRPNK is an EU based service and we are openly Antifa here, and proudly so!

    Maybe we just call ourselves “antfash” and if they ask we are just really into dressing up ants?

      They don’t care about the letter of the law, only putting people that disagree with them in prison.

      Hmm. Could you reverse psychology it? “Antifa were the real fascists, so we decided we’re just going to call ourselves fascists.” And what would they do? Write a law declaring fascists to be terrorists?

      Jokes.

      The problem is they’re going to decide who is and is not antifa. If they say you are, then you are. And if they say antifa are terrorists, then they are. Something like this is the end result in the “war on terror” stuff from the early 2000s. Or, alternately, “anything I don’t like is woke” except they’ll send the cops and/or feds to crack your skull or just straight up kill you.
