President Donald Trump said he is designating the far-left anti-fascism movement Antifa as a terrorist organization, announcing the move on his Truth Social platform in the early hours of Thursday morning UK time.

It wasn’t immediately clear what mechanism Trump would use to make the designation, and Antifa lacks centralized structure or defined leadership, making it unclear who or what precisely would be targeted.

“I am pleased to inform our many U.S.A. Patriots that I am designating ANTIFA, A SICK, DANGEROUS, RADICAL LEFT DISASTER, AS A MAJOR TERRORIST ORGANIZATION,” Trump wrote. “I will also be strongly recommending that those funding ANTIFA be thoroughly investigated in accordance with the highest legal standards and practices. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

A White House official told CNN, “This is just one of many actions the president will take to address left wing organizations that fuel political violence.”

Trump — who’s overseas for a formal state visit — signaled the move earlier this week in remarks from the Oval Office following the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

I hate the fact I have to come to terms with a world that wants me dead, I hate the fact I have to come to terms with abandoning nearly everything I own. I hate my life.

It's tough at first but it gets easier. If you move to a better place, you realize how much of a third world country the US is.

And the world doesn't want you dead. A minority of Americans do. The problem is that most Americans just don't care.

It’s a lot easier said than done, no country is currently accepting refugees from this shithole. It’s not easy to leave everyone you know and love behind. It’s not easy to have to pick what you can bring and if it’s possible to bring something else.

I’m going to make my stand here. They can come for me if they want to.

I’m not ready to die, I don’t want to die

And that's fine. Some of us are going to stay in the US and fight the good fight, just like antifa Germans did in the 1930s and 1940s. Others will punch out of this country and find a place where they can survive. Your circumstances will determine which path you take, and that's OK.

Not the world, don't get sucked into the same media black-hole that made people think they needed to vote for Trump twice.

There are many, many places who would welcome you and protect you no matter your identity or ethnicity or background, but those places are certainly not going to be advertised. Might be a good time to start looking into expatriation.
