Whenever ANTIFA or BLM destroyed property or looted a building or hurt someone, apologists would say that they were "infiltrated" by members of The Proud Boys or some other far right organization. I don't think we should stoop to their level by using the same tired excuse. The people that they have arrested so far are clearly Trump supporters. Many, including the woman who was killed, had a presence on social media where they made posts and videos supporting the president. We should just acknowledge that we have stupid people on our side. Either we do that, or just use Antifa as a scapegoat whenever it's convenient.
