The far-left radical movement known as Antifa has been getting its own taste of cancel culture.
Just look at what happened on Aug. 19 in Brooklyn’s Crown Heights neighborhood. Masked, fist-clenched agitators belonging to the anarchist collective turned up to sow chaos — but locals banded together to confront the troublemakers, telling them to get lost.
For some people who ascribe to the Antifa ideology, protests and petty vandalism have gotten old — with groups now turning to ghastly acts of violence.
Video captures members of Antifa being told to “scram!” after they showed up in a Brooklyn neighborhood to sow chaos.
It was the 34th anniversary of the Crown Heights race riots, and, instead of summoning a revival of 2020’s racial unrest, the Antifas slinked away as a crowd encircling them chanted, “F–k Antifa!”
Experts who track domestic terrorism and extremist movements aren’t surprised: Once the face of a grassroots leftwing insurgency, Antifa has lost its spark.
But experts warn that could be a dangerous thing, as the vacuum has given way to even more fringe and violent offshoots that are coalescing in the Marxist ether. And we’re only beginning to see the deadly fallout.
Last month, Benjamin Song, a member of the Antifa militant groups Elm Fork John Brown Gun Club and the Socialist Rifle Association, led a group of 10 radicals — eight of whom were found living in a reportedly squalid transgender commune — in an armed ambush at an ICE detention center in Alvarado, Texas. The shooting left one officer injured.

Worse than Antifa: Inside the new breed of ultra-extremist groups dedicated to chaos, violence — and even alleged murder
Song then formed his own group, focused on “trans and queer identity issues,” and used an Arlington, Texas, martial arts studio, where his mother worked, as a base for training lefty militants how to fire guns.
An even more gruesome story unfolded with the February arrest of Jack “Ziz” Lasota, head of a murderous transgender cult accused of a multi-state killing spree that took six lives. The so-called Zizians espoused an ideology of anarchism and extreme veganism, seeking to slaughter figures of “petty authority,” cops say.
