Animal Farm Kindle Edition [amazon.com]
George Orwell's timeless and timely allegorical novel—a scathing satire on a downtrodden society's blind march towards totalitarianism.The book tells the story of a group of farm animals who rebel against their human farmer, hoping to create a society where the animals can be equal, free, and happy. Ultimately, however, the rebellion is betrayed, and the farm ends up in a state as bad as it was before, under the dictatorship of a pig named Napoleon. Today it is devastatingly clear that wherever and whenever freedom is attacked, under whatever banner, the cutting clarity and savage comedy of George Orwell's masterpiece have a meaning and message still ferociously fresh.

Conscientious citizen....yeah, we all believe that.
Such clockwork how "Antifa" come out of the mouths of free thinkers when they are cornered with a little bit of logic. Ask yourself; when is the last time Antifa did anything? Huh? Where is their headquarters? Who is their leader? Do they issue W2's? Where can you apply? Have you ever met one? Did they burn down your neighbor's house? Whatever happened to that made up by the alt-right media "Antifa revolution?" LOL, oh you forgot about that one didn't you?
The entire narrative must be pretty shaky if it requires bookending every point with a fictional boogeyman to invoke when all else fails.
"Nazi-like behavior?"....pretty sure the Nazi's said a lot of the same demonizing things about the Jews to justify their wartime behaviors you are accusing the left of. Pretty much word-for-word. Make them less than animals and then you can do anything with them...where have we seen that before? "By any means necessary" indeed.
BTW, not saying your are a Nazi, just calling out "genuinely Nazi-like behavior." That's okay and a big difference, right?

And that's the crux of my whole argument. If someone is doing something evil, they should be called out for it.
LOL, the people hearing voices never think the voices just in their head. Just like all your boogeymen
