Has your life been affected from speaking out here? Have things gone wrong in your personal life as a result but you can't figure out who is doing it? Are any other members being hacked, spied on experienced major disruptions to life or career and do you suspect it is a result of affiliation with Occupy?

"White Nationalist Group posing as AntiFa called for violence on Twitter" by Ben Collins, Brandy Zadrozny and Emmanuelle Saliba:

"A Twitter account claiming to belong to a national “AntiFa” organization .. and pushing violent rhetoric related to ongoing protests has been linked to the white nationalist group "Identity Evropa", according to a Twitter spokesperson.

"The spokesperson said the account violated the company's platform manipulation and spam policy, specifically the creation of fake accounts. Twitter suspended the account after a tweet that incited violence.

"As protests were taking place in multiple states across the U.S. Sunday night, the newly created account, @ANTIFA_US, tweeted, “Tonight’s the night, Comrades,” with a brown raised fist emoji and “Tonight we say 'F--- The City' and we move into the residential areas... the white hoods.... and we take what's ours …”

"This isn’t the first time Twitter has taken action against fake accounts engaged in hateful conduct linked to 'Identity Evropa', according to the spokesperson.

"The AntiFa movement — a network of loosely organized radical groups, who use Direct Action to fight the Far-Right and Fascism — has been targeted by President Donald Trump as the force behind some of the violence & property destruction seen at some protests, though little evidence has been provided for such claims." Also fyi:

Sorry that my reply wasn't strictly to your OP question - but I thought it appropriate for our present times.
