The 'humorous' thing about the left wing intellectuals who support Antifa (and anyone who is anti-business - capitalism - trump) is that when/if the communist/socialists take over, the first thing they do is eliminate the duped intellectuals/anarchists. Of course the rest of the population has to suffer decades of totalitarianism.

People's Republic of China
The
Cultural Revolution was a politically violent decade (1966–76) of wide-ranging
social engineering of the
People's Republic of China by its leader Chairman
Mao. After several national policy crises, Mao, to regain public prestige and control of the
Communist Party of China (CPC), on 16 May 1966, announced that the Party and Chinese society were permeated with liberal bourgeois elements who meant to restore
capitalism to China, and that said people could only be removed with
post–revolutionary class struggle. To that effect, China's youth nationally organised into
Red Guards, hunting the liberal bourgeois elements subverting the CCP and Chinese society. The Red Guards acted nationally, purging the country, the military, urban workers, and the leaders of the CCP. The Red Guards were particularly aggressive in attacking their teachers and professors, causing most schools and universities to be shut down once the Cultural Revolution began. Three years later, in 1969, Mao declared the Cultural Revolution ended; yet the political intrigues continued until 1976, concluding with the arrest of the
Gang of Four, the
de facto end of the Cultural Revolution.
