Colinxy: The Antifa Cult

One of the peculiar features of modern politics is that movements often become the very thing they claim to oppose. No contemporary group illustrates this paradox more clearly than Antifa.

The name itself is a form of political camouflage. “Antifa” is simply short for “anti-fascist”, and that label does much of the movement’s rhetorical heavy lifting. After all, who could possibly object to opposing fascism? By defining itself as anti-fascist, the movement attempts to claim the moral high ground before any argument has even begun.
