The stage of political activism has a mercurial plot. Most would prefer to assume there are set patterns and even unwritten rules about who is on which side of the fence when it comes to issues like racism, sexism, homophobia and antisemitism. These are for simple reasons, like skin color, ethnicity, sex and sexual orientation.
What becomes confusing is when a person is born of a race or orientation that happens to be the target of these hate groups– and instead of joining their brothers and sisters in struggle, they decide to give those who hate and despise them their loyalty and devotion.

It took me 8 months to get my “friend”, the one who recruited me, was a lying manipulating sleaze. 2 more years would pass before finding out they were all conartists, then 2-3 years after that proof beyond all doubt the entire thing was a rightwing fraud set up to get anarchists/leftists involved. Not to undermine ARA/antifa or anything like that. Nope, just the boring sleaze of recruiting people to front for them:
“See we can’t be anti semites cuz we have diversity and stuff!”
So I’m totally not going to judge. Remember, if racists didn’t lie and con people, they wouldn’t be able to operate at all.
He’s been caught, that’s what counts. Learn from your mistakes, do better, move on. 😉
