The Spin

Trump's designation of these foreign groups as terrorist organizations is a further dangerous authoritarian attack on anti-fascist resistance, especially after he unjustly designated Antifa in the U.S. a domestic terror organization. This move mirrors tactics used by fascist leaders like Orban and Netanyahu to crush legitimate opposition. Trump is essentially using state repression to consolidate power, vilifying those who fight fascism.

Antifa and its associated groups are violent revolutionaries who use terrorism to advance their anti-American agenda of overthrowing the government and abolishing private enterprise. These black-hooded marauders wound innocent people and suppress free speech through intimidation and violence. Designating them as terrorists is absolutely correct since they fit the definition perfectly.
