The Q Anon folks are the real danger. You just don't know what they are up to. All we can see is them posting memes and articles and conspiracies on twitter and 4 chan and such.

Antifa - we understand what they are doing and so feel much less threatened. They are out their burning down buildings and bashing heads in. Nothing hidden at all. No fears about what might be under the bed or in the closet. None.

It is going to take a lot for the democrats to stop the violence.

Once you start a fire it takes on it’s own life.

translation: Law enforcement was having too much success tracking down ANTIFA members on Facebook.

The scary thing is that I believe the Democrat power brokers are STOOOOOOPID enough to think that they can stop the violence.

But they can’t.

As you said, it takes on a life of its own.

“translation: Law enforcement was having too much success tracking down ANTIFA members on Facebook.”

Given the slime that is Facebook’s creators, this explanation makes the most sense.

We should acknowledge that Facebook did ban Antifa accounts too (according to the article), so at least they are making the effort to avoid blatant bias. Unlike Twitter.

Just over a year ago, FascistBook banned conservatives Laura Loomer, Paul Watson and Milos.

They additionally banned Louis Farrakhan. This, to try and show “hey, we’re not politically biased”.

Seems to me they threw in a “token ban” only to make the ban of conservatives palatable.

My Translation: The Dem’s need to reduce the visibility of the protests(but not necessarily stop them) as the nightly protests are being increasingly linked to the Democratic party. They are afraid of it affecting the election.

Interesting find. I have hulu. During commercial they have BLM ads. At botton says sponsored by SEIU. Unions are paying the thugs to loot, destroy, burn down cities.
