Description

Few in the media have followed Antifa more closely - and have the scars to prove it - than journalist Jack Posobiec.

From infiltrating their 2016 meetings where they planned their attack on Trump's inauguration to going undercover in Seattle's CHAZ in 2020, Posobiec has never backed down from exposing the true nature of Antifa.

In The Antifa, Posobiec uncovers the secret history of this radical anarchist group, while integrating his personal encounters with some of its most hardcore and violent members. While until recently few Americans were aware of Antifa's existence, Posobiec shows that, in fact, it is part of a violent revolutionary tradition that dates back more than a hundred years.

Like its predecessors, most recently including the Weathermen terrorists of the 1960's, it is driven by an overriding aim: the overthrow of the existing political order and capitalism itself, and replacing it with a communist state.

Antifa saw and seized its chance in 2020. Because it was not brought to heel - indeed, was encouraged in its violent mayhem by sympathetic city and state governments -- it now looms as a greater threat than ever before. In fact, as Posobiec shows, Antifa is today better positioned than were any of its radical forebears to actually achieve its goal.

I found this rather interesting but the problem I see Is the Republicans will agree with this and the Democrats will see it as all lies and propaganda, other wise it could be considered quite informative…..

This book was an interesting look into the world of Antifa. fiction books about contemporary political issues are some of my favourite reads.I appreciate Posobiec's style of journalism and his looking beyond the mainstream media's lack of critical investigation into this topic. Thanks for Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC in exchange for unbiased and honest review.

There is misunderstanding of the Antifa movement in our media and culture. The mainstream media has not said a lot about them and to be honest I would not know of them if it was not for Twitter and following Jack Posobiec and an Asian reporter that I think has been kicked off Twitter. I tried looking him up in the writing of this review and he has not come up.

Jack puts his own experience with this group and the hate that they project. They are not about helping the minority but about destroying law and order, capitalism, and families. They are a well organized gang that is well funded by Elite liberals. I appreciate Jack's willingness and courageous efforts in getting the word out. There is a real battle between evil and good.

Things in this world are changing quickly and there is a reason. People need to be informed and think thru what these implications will mean for future generations. Progressism is not going forward but going backwards and Antifa is leading the way!

A special thank you to Books Go Social and Netgalley for the ARC and the opportunity to post an honest review.
