    What a nasty question! Only an Antifa terrorist would ask such a thing. Off to Alligator Dachau you go.

    For real though: Welcome to fascism. Where objective truth is replaced by the truth. This Antifa move is to frighten the right people into obedience in advance and jail the others who are not.

    “The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction (i.e., the reality of experience) and the distinction between true and false (i.e., the standards of thought) no longer exist.”

    ― Hannah Arendt

    This isn't just an empty quote, but psychologically studied and backed with empirical evidence. Some people are extremely susceptible to fascism.
