In regards to the usage of the "word" antifa ( an'-tee-fah, an-tee'-fah) -

[Ms. Toad]

6. Neither antifa nor anti-fascist are names I would have called myself

Before the right started using then against progressive, so I'm not likely to adopt either, now.

I can't reclaim something I never owned (as one responder suggested), nor am I changing what I'm calling myself from one thing to another (like liberal to progressive) because the right attempted to make what I called myself a dirty word (as another responder suggested).

I see zero benefit in making myself a target simply to spite Trump, et al.
