WHY WRITE THIS THEN

An article about Antifa-related violence opens with an anecdote about ... non-Antifa-related violence.

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME

You have not remotely established this! You just told two stories about people who *weren't Antifa* committing violence

Um I live a block away from the autonomous zone and this is complete fucking toiletstench. Plus THE VIOLENCE AT CHAZ HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH ANTIFA.

Antifa aren't looters dude! These are two completely separate phenomena.

Even for Persuasion, this is a new low. Just no editorial standards whatsoever.

If I tried to write a piece called Vegans Love Jaywalking, my editor would at some point be like, "umm this probably needs an example of vegans jaywalking?"
