Antifa are obviously agents of the Democratic Party; I refer to them as the Democrats' Brownshirts. Whenever Democrats need dirty street violence committed, rather than dirty their own hands they call upon Antifa to do it. The Democrats are so completely and obviously in bed with Antifa that it's hard for me to imagine how anyone could not see the connection, just as I also can't fathom how anyone could fail to see the patently obvious partnership between Democrats and the cartels; it's as plain as day, every day ("Democrats and the Cartels": https://daveziffer.substack.com/p/democrats-and-the-cartels).
It's interesting that you mention Medium, another publishing platform similar to Substack. I formerly published all my articles there myself. Then one day I put out an article entitled "You are drowning in an ocean of lies" (now on Substack at https://daveziffer.substack.com/p/you-are-drowning-in-an-ocean-of-lies). Within a week my article simply disappeared, as though I'd never written it. Appeals to Medium fell on deaf ears. I'd already been uncomfortable there, since Medium seems to be heavily dominated by insanely Woke authors, so I decided shortly thereafter to transfer all my political articles to Substack and continue most of my publishing here; I now use Medium only for non-political stuff.
Medium not only disappeared my Antifa article, no one had access to my previous articles and I could not publish any others. They never sent me any kind of explanation. I took the hint. BTW, all my previous articles had been political ones. As I recall THAT was the first time I had written about crime or terrorism.
Medium has allowed me to subscribe to their site to read articles only, I can't comment on them. They disabled that feature. My previous comments on articles that were either defamatory or downright offensive were not appreciated. So I get to pay for a truncated service, and you're right about deaf ears. Medium advertises literary liberty but practices censorship.
Christians in America need to take heed: Christianity was not built on surrender. It was built on throwing the elites out of the temple, selling your cloak to buy a sword, on “gird on your sword and follow me.”
Antifa are the descendants of Portland's anarchists who earned the city the name of Little Beirut back before many of today's nasty Antifa riff raff were born.
Here's a 2016 Willamette Week report that dates Portland's embrace of anarchism back to 1984:
With President Trump's 2016 election, the city's raging Antifa-anarchist mobs went wild. Following his inauguration on Friday, January 20, 2017, thousands of protesters marched through downtown Portland, outraged that Donald J. Trump was the 45th president of the United States. This was just the beginning of a parade of riots that disrupted Portland for many months.
Then, on Sunday June 17, 2018, hundreds of 'occupiers' set up camp at the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement headquarters on Macadam Avenue in Southwest Portland, intending to stay until the facility was shut down. The siege lasted six weeks.
ICE continues to occupy the building today, but years of violent, relentless rioting and streets paved with homeless camps, and no successful response from the city's Democrat controlled leadership, Portland has become a hollowed out ghost after once being respected as a stunning example of a perfectly designed and operating modern city that attracted architects and city planners from around the world.
You have a good memory! I had forgotten about the occupation of ICE building on Macadam Avenue. By that time, I rarely needed or wanted to drive into downtown Portland.
And the sad state of affairs is that there are people calling themselves Christian all across America that are doing their best to guilt or rebuke or silence Christians like the ones at that particular demonstration. I would venture to say that these people who claim to be Christians and even try to use scripture to force a particular political position are not Christian at all. They are nothing but hypocrites and the most dangerous type, mind you.
Are you suggesting that THIS Christian gathering on Saturday was organized by fake Christians? Did you hear the pastor on Laura Ingraham's show tonight?
Grateful not to be in Seattle or Portland. By the way, Vashon Island is not in the Strait of Juan de Fuca, it is directly across Puget Sound from Seattle. You can take a ferry across the Sound to get back and forth.
Anarchists or Anti-Christs?

You are PAYING for this abuse?

No. That is not what I was suggesting in my comment. If I did not make my context clear, I apologize.

Corrected! Thank you!!!
