On Friday, President Trump supporters and right-wing citizens created the hashtag #ExposeANTIFA in an attempt to speculate on the inner workings of the loosely-organized movement. Antifa, which stands for Anti-Fascist, was condemned by Donald Trump this week when he proposed that they be considered a terrorist organization.

The hashtag was created by Project Veritas, a right-wing organization that claimed it infiltrated Antifa and would expose its violent tactics. But contrary to right-wing accusations, Antifa, which originated in Europe, is not a centralized movement but a movement that adheres to a set of beliefs.

As the hashtag grew, the hacking group Anonymous called for K-Pop and anime fans to spam the hashtag in order to drown out people who were using the hashtag not-ironically.

Of course, not everyone was amused.

We have no choice but to stan the K-Pop stans.
