Re: Left wing terroism
The government has labelled Antifa a terrorist organization. The fact that you don't know that should concern you.
​
You might be right. Since the official list is not available to the public, it's difficult to tell for sure.
​
As I understand it, the politics of Antifa are to be anti-far right wing. That does not make them left wing/liberal. Maybe a lot of Antifa is made up of non-lunatic fringe conservatives?

Re: Antifa
​
Um no. I would bet a few bucks and say they are all "lefties". Nice try though. Or perhaps you are in denial? Like the Democrat leadership is?
​
I have no idea of what the political leanings of Antifa are, and I doubt you do. Certainly they are to the left of what they are opposing. So if you define "lefties" as "not of the far right fringe", I grant you that you are probably correct.
​
I recently read a Rachel Maddow quote somewhere - She said something along the lines of "Politically I lean to the left. I am rather in line with Eisenhower era Republicans".
