Mark Bray was teaching courses on antifascism. Turning Point USA accused of him belonging to antifa, which he denies. His flight to Spain was canceled abruptly on Wednesday night.

    Am expert in antifa?

    Stop legitimizing these fuckers by calling patriots what they aren’t!

      Nah, call him that. Take antifa back from those motherfuckers. Antifa literally means antifascism, it is good, and I would argue by this point it should be getting pretty violent too just as a matter of self-defense.

    Because of the last-minute drama at the airport, the family missed its flight. Dr. Bray said the airline rebooked them on another flight for Thursday. He said he was hoping for the best. “I may sound conspiratorial, but I don’t think it is a coincidence,” he added.

    Bro, flights all over are getting canceled. There’s a government shutdown.

      It does have a certain “von Trapp family trying to escape the Nazis” quality to it, doesn’t it?

      I’d get out if I could. Fuck this place. At this point I feel like America bought this shit. My grandfather got tired of arguing with his countrymen in Germany in the 30s and left. I feel like you can’t argue with mass insanity, you have to let it play its course until it kills itself. Just look at the resistance in America right now. It hasn’t achieved a single fucking thing. Not one goal. It hasn’t stopped shit. Just like in Germany. I’m not talking about the Dems. I’m talking about protestors. Haven’t done a single thing to stop anything.

        I do. It’s exactly the kind of attitude that lets Fascists take over countries. What we need are people to draw a line in the sand.
