I wanted to play with my new tablet a little bit because I won't get a chance for a while, so this is rough. Still, it's something that I've been thinking about a lot and trying to figure out how to say in a way that is the most clear.
Creating a label of "ANTI" and applying it to something is meaningless. How often does someone say, "Antifa can't be fascist, it's right in the name?"

Does it really make a difference to losing my CHOICE to voluntarily associate if there's a law that says I may not serve "those people" o...
