Another possibility; youth wants war, every generation must have it's war. But they don't really want the real kind. Think of it as their version of gang warfare. Just thinking.

Yes. The dirty little secret about war is that we like it. When World War I broke out, the capitals of Europe exploded in a nationalistic frenzy of excitement. It had been a century since the last big wars; they didn't have a clue. In addition, as you said, they don't really want the real thing, just uniforms and patriotic songs. Lacking wars, they fabricate wars against internal enemies, like Tesla, Trump, the environment, the seemingly ubiquitous Nazis, billionaires, Israel, the military/industrial complex and so on.

I wondered where the money and organization was coming from for the Antifa riots, but it looks like it was USAID, hence the importance of it being shut down to limit resistance activities. You might like this article I’ve found concerning Antifa organization and activities. Take with usual grain of salt.

If what you said about USAID funding Antifa riots is true, it is deserving of headlines everywhere; absolute scandalous. Will get to the article later. Watching the three year old grandson.

If it is, it would have been sent to an ngo which sends it to another ngo and so on. That’s how they did it to pay gun control organizations for instance.

It sounds like a bunch of boys playing soldier. What is their goal? What are their issues? Why do they even exist? Answer, they are nihilists, every day failures , lovers of chaos.!
