"Next time you read about some violence from Teh Left you ask me if I'm good with it, OK?"

Here you go.

Also, here (amongst other places) is where you can get your antifa t-shirts:

You're conflating Antifa with the Proud Boys, which isn't what we were talking about. I've never heard of a single source "in QAnon" either. They don't give official interviews. I dont know of any identified QAnon members.

Again, I'm not trying to make the case that Antifa is a carefully structured organisation. Which is why I compared them to QAnon. Which isn't structured either. But it clearly exists. My disagreement was with you bluntly claiming that it doesn't.

No, I do not approve of rioting and property damage in response to Floyd's murder. Reagardless of what I think his killers deserved, which I will not put on record, the simple fact that the dishonest right will use the footage to rile up resentment means that kind of behavior is political suicide.

I was just reading about vaccinations on EpochTimes, a right wing agitation site. They were showing people convulsing supposedly from vaccines; I recognized several scenes from Dario Argento movies. Zombie stuff.

The t-shirts? Please. That's just people trying to make a buck, not the antifa swag store. Look at the white supremacist organizations and they are practically in uniform.

I do know (of) one QAnon member. I don't know if she carries an embossed plastic card but she's a member.

Kind of like saying racism is an organization.
