Understanding the fight: BLM founder says goal is removing Trump; mystery ‘cop’ in D.C. scuffle; ‘Zone’ takedowns Monday night
The current profile of chaotic civil disorder, perpetrated and fomented by the radical leftists of Antifa and the trained, organized Black Lives Matter operatives, fits the Weimar mold – as it does the mold of all communist uprisings. What’s lacking in America in 2020 is any semblance of an actual counterforce – e.g., “Nazis” – trying to fight it out with the communists in the streets.
No one doubts that there are neo-Nazis and KKK in the United States. But those execrable elements are not in the streets toppling statues, breaking into small businesses and looting them before burning them out, shooting retired cops, setting homeless people on fire with firecrackers, taking over police stations, attacking random motorists, or engaging in gunfights at street corners and convenience stores. They are simply not involved in the attacks that are making civil life impossible in many big cities.
