    It seems to have an Orwellian component. “War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.”

    In the case of modern Antifa, that is correct. Well, except they are globalists and not uber-nationalists.

    That sounds like Stalinists.

    (Stalin and Hitler were both fascists, of a sort. But Stalin's variety was of the international sort (i.e. communism), whereas Hitler's variety was of the nationalist sort (i.e. Nazism).

    honestly i don't think thet know the meanings of those terms. They're angry over perceived wrongs and they love fires and looting and hurting people they consider the enemy.

    The new religion?

    Sounds more like a new cult.

    the new religion??? that is attacking people on the basis of their religion, like attacking a candidate for the Supreme Court on her religion. It will come forth in the next confirmation process and that will be a direct attack on our Constitution, which makes it clear no political candidate can be attacked on religious grounds.

    Cult was my first thought too but cults tend to be more socially isolated. This movement gets support from institutions like education, corporations and even people within government. Seems more like a full blown religion of sorts, except it lacks a spiritual side. The behavior is still religion-like.
