Subject: Re: Riots in LA
The right has its Boogaloo boys and other militia/hate group types who want to provoke a race war, and on the left- antifa.
SNIP During the 2020 riots following the death of George Floyd, there were also some reports of Antifa activity. In Newark, New Jersey, the FBI and Newark Police Department investigated possible Antifa activity and arrested an individual for possessing a knife, a hatchet, and a jar of gasoline with intent to use violence.1 In Austin, Texas, law enforcement officials reported that Antifa was involved in violent activity, including the looting of a Target store.2 There were also law enforcement reports of Antifa activity in other cities, such as Minneapolis, Minnesota; Spokane, Washington; and Portland, Oregon. The FBI nevertheless assessed that criminals—not Antifa or other ideologically motivated individuals—perpetrated the vast majority of looting and violence. Other law enforcement agencies came to a similar conclusion. “We saw no organized effort of antifa here in Los Angeles,” said Josh Rubenstein, the spokesman for the Los Angeles Police Department.SNIP
I think you make a mistake in comparing Antifa to accelerationists. Accelerationists are willing to be violent against and kill police, then blame it on blacks to start a race war. Antifa gets blamed by the right for things they've never done.
