Antifa just handed the Republican Party yet another messaging victory that will only help propel the simmering backlash to leftist “mob rule”.
In a gesture that was intended to put New York City Republicans “on notice,” members of Antifa vandalized the Metropolitan Republican Club building, located on NYC’s Upper East Side, breaking windows and doors and defacing the facade with “anarchist” symbols, according to the New York Times. In a note left with the vandalism suggested that the damage to the left at the scene, the vandals declared that the attack was related to a planned appearance by Gavin McInnes, the founder of the Proud Boys, a conservative group that has publicly battled with leftist groups at rallies, protests and demonstrations across the US.
Members of the club were shocked at the unprovoked act of vandalism, with the president of the club saying it “didn’t want to be a part” of helping the vandals get their message out.
“I cannot recall something like this,” Ed Cox, Chairman of the Republican Party of New York State, told the New York Times’ Shane Goldmacher. “Whoever these people are, we don’t want to be part of getting their message out. They don’t deserve it.”
In the note left at the scene, the attackers accused the club of committing “treachery against humanity” by inviting McInnes to speak (read the full note below).
