Have the Democrats annoyed Antifa?
Democrats know exactly who Antifa is and what they do and they know that their activities are in service of goals the larger Left is aligned with -- they just don’t want their hands dirty.

Antifa is feeling underappreciated, and if I were House or Senate Democrats, I’d think about upping my security. That’s not to suggest that we on the Right don’t have legitimate concerns about them. We do. But we haven’t pricked their egos, and that’s a different kind of dangerous.

According to a Monday piece published in The Nation, Antifa really does not like how Democrats keep denying their existence, even mocking their existence. Antifa believes they are owed some gratitude, and given that the article itself states they “all” subscribe a “militant tradition” of “by any means necessary” to get what they want, it might be advisable for congressional Dems to stop worrying so much about MAGA or “white Christian nationalists” and worry a bit more about the “radical leftists,” “anarchists,” and “communists” who comprise Antifa and appear to have their feelings hurt.

“Liberals think Antifa isn’t real. But it is -- and it knows how to win” is a remarkable piece, forcefully defending Antifa and haughtily deriding the Democrats who deny they exist. What’s remarkable about it, aside from nearly every assumption the writer makes about us on the Right being built on lies so obvious or old they’re now cliches, is the casualness with which he glosses over their violence. The entire time I was reading it I kept thinking “What if these were Tea Party or MAGA people? Would he be so forgiving?” The obvious answer is “no.”

With “Antifa groups in Oregon, Georgia, California, and elsewhere” -- heavy emphasis on “elsewhere” -- evidently, the first murder is free:

This is a gaslight piece.

The author (it's "the nation", right?) is trying to persuade us that the dem-communists don't know much about antifa.

I'll reckon most of them "know" antifa -- quite well...
