The Slimes would never denounce Antifa, the real American Nazis. They sow destruction, mayhem and confusion everywhere they go while the cops stand by and give them free rein. No wonder they showed up en mass in Virginia, they knew they had a free hand to do whatever they pleased.
The left definitely came prepared to attack - and they did, since the police were passive because they are terrified of offending the little Wookies and getting themselves sued, tried by the media, and usually losing their jobs.
That said, the Antifa groups (mostly RCP, Revolutionary Communist Party) seem to have brought their full agenda along with them - I saw a photo of a few of the ditzy looking females carrying posters screaming for “reproductive justice,” aka, abortion. I don’t see what connection that had with their supposed goal of protesting “racism,” but I guess maybe you have to be a leftist to understand.
