An Antifa news site sells badges saying “hate cops” and “hospitalize your local fascist” along with other memorabilia.
The retailer and news site, It’s Going Down, describes itself as “a digital community center from anarchist, anti-fascist, autonomous anti-capitalist and anti-colonial movements.”
It’s Going Down sells a 24-pack of stickers with slogans such as “This is an Antifa zone. Nazis, cops, and Klan go home” and “Become ungovernable: resist fascism and oppression” for $15.00. Along with the aforementioned “hospitalize your local fascist” badge, the site also sells badges reading “no more presidents” and “not gay as in happy, queer as in f*** you.”
Another sticker available for purchase states “lustful wrath against the cis-tem,” playing on “system” with the prefix of “cisgender,” the term used to describe individuals who identify as the gender matching their birth sex.
It’s Going Down does not typically feature articles from named authors, instead publishing pieces from anonymous contributors and groups like the Twin Cities General Defense Committee, whose members describe capitalism as “authoritarian theft” and have advocated disarming cops.
