    A Historian of Antifa Explains America's Punchiest Leftist Movement

    "Antifa—short for anti-fascism—is not a formal organization or a gang; one can't "join," and it is most certainly not funded by George Soros. Rather, antifa is a political movement born from European Marxist and anarchist traditions; what distinguishes it from other left-wing factions is its militant opposition to fascism and far-right ideologies and a "by any means necessary" approach. It has existed since the 1920s but has sparked recent mainstream interest thanks to a series of high-profile confrontations between antifa and various far-right groups. In Charlottesville, antifa joined the counter-protest to the Unite the Right rally, and as Cornel West has recounted, stood guard between a group of clergy and the armed white supremacists inside Emancipation Park. At a far-right "No to Marxism in America" rally in Berkeley this past weekend, reports of vicious fights between antifa and allegedly peaceful Trump supporters dominated the discussion around the protest."

    We really are on the brink of nuclear war with Trump leading the way. How is every person in this country not terrified about that?

    I don't understand the calculus on firing a missile at Japan. I get that NK and Japan aren't friendly but I would've expected them to attack South Korea before Japan. Is this even an attack or is it a heavyhanded threat? I'm so confused...

    Don't get me wrong, this is absolutely fucking terrifying, but is this a misleading description/title?? I'm so confused.. I keep hearing reports that it flew over and landed in the sea, and other reports that another unidentified missile launched? I don't know what news to trust. I truly hope everyone is safe, my God..
