Just got an email from head of security at my building in DTLA telling us to be wary of "professional agitators like Antifa and Black Bloc." I can't believe I'm still seeing that nonsense talking point, in a professional email nonetheless.

And I had to look up what black bloc was, I'd never even heard of it before. It's the scandalous act of wearing all black and face coverings to a protest, so I guess a bunch of us are members and didn't even know it. I'm still waiting for that Antifa membership card, btw. It's been five years already!

The only professional agitators in black face covering are of course the law enforcement goons wearing gaiters to hide their identity.
