Trump Jr. retweeted the fake Antifa account, which was run by a white supremacist group, IdentityEvropa. How did he find the tweets? The fake Antifa used the logo, in German, from the original Stalinist Antifa, which refused to work with Social Democrats. Rather, they called them social fascists. This failure to unite against Hitler enabled his rise to power. They are a dangerous example of what happens when politics becomes purely theoretical, as opposed to practical.

The CNN report points out that (often) nothing is as it seems. It is important to remember that we don’t know who Antifa really is. Is it really just volunteers? Or are some paid? If so, by whom? Maybe fake Antifa is actually the real Antifa?

Notice that they are using the German in their logo: “The front focused largely on attacking the KPD’s main adversary, the centre-left Social Democratic Party of Germany, whom they referred to as social fascists…”

By calling Social Democrats “social fascists” and refusing to form a common front with them, they enabled Hitler’s rise to power. This original Antifa was comprised of Stalinists. If the US doesn’t want Hitler redux, then they need to form a common front to vote Biden. Now’s not the time for theoretical purity.
