A supposed ‘antifa domestic terrorist’ was arrested for ‘cyberstalking’ a controversial right-wing agitator who showed up at a reporter’s ho
Donald Trump’s administration made a show out of arresting a Minneapolis man they called an “antifa domestic terrorist,” asserting that he was being charged with threatening ICE agents.
However, the administration appears to have arrested this self-described “antifa” member, Kyle Wagner, in large part for allegedly “cyberstalking” Jayden Scott, a well-known right-wing agitator. Scott has been in Minneapolis as a counter-protester boosting ICE, and publicly crowed about Renee Nicole Good’s murder in Minneapolis, screaming, “We executed one of you.” Scott also filmed himself standing in front of a reporter’s apartment door in an overt attempt at intimidation. The reporter successfully filed for a protective order against Scott, court records show.
Wagner’s arrest is part of the administration’s broader crackdown against antifascists, who Trump has inexplicably claimed constitute a domestic terror network. Antifa is not an actual organization, but rather an ideology broadly opposing fascism.
In Wagner’s case, the government has chosen to intervene in what may be best described as a social-media pissing match between an avowed antifascist and a fascist – to arrest the antifascist.

Liberty Hangout held a debate between one of my favorite AnCaps and a Minarchist I haven’t heard of before today. Regardless of your political affiliation I recommend you watch this debate.
Co-opting the language and posture of grievance is how members of a privileged class express their belief that the way they live shouldn't have to change, that their opponents are hypocrites and perhaps even the real oppressors.
Once again, I’ve had a disaster with this blog since I moved it. I am trying to post everything twice, but it doesn’t always work. The original on my new blog is always better. Please go there and follow me there (www.captainjillsjourneys.com). I really hate to lose all my followers here, but I’m not sure how long this situation is going to last.

I’m at the Denver airport, waiting for my flight back home to Houston. It’s been a VERY busy couple of days here in Colorado.
I got here fairly early Monday morning. Shared a ride to Evergreen with my fellow attendee and new room mate Hope. We spent the next 2 days sharing a 2 bedroom suite at the Highland Haven Creekside Inn. We came for a ‘writing retreat’ along with another dozen fledgling…
Cluelessness about institutional inequality isn't a crime, but it's a major contributing factor to the grand nerd myth of the internet as a perfect meritocracy in which everyone is equal and the worst crime is special pleading.
