Their faces hidden behind black bandannas and hoodies, about a 100 anarchists and antifa — “anti-fascist” — barreled into a protest Sunday afternoon in Berkeley’s Martin Luther King Jr. Civic Center Park.
Jumping over plastic and concrete barriers, the group melted into a larger crowd of around 2,000 that had marched peacefully throughout the sunny afternoon for a “Rally Against Hate” gathering.
And although the anti-hate and left-wing protesters largely drowned out the smaller clutch of far-right marchers attending a planned “No to Marxism in America” rally, Sunday’s confrontation marked another street brawl between opposing ends of the political spectrum — violence that has become a regular feature of the Trump years and gives signs of spiraling upward, particularly in the wake of the violence in Charlottesville.

I guess WashPo had to report on this somehow or other because other segments of the media aren't going to ignore it.
Notice this is at least the second or third instance where the 'anti-fascist' Antifa put their fascism on display in trying to shut down a peaceful protest. They mixed in with a leftist rally dedicated to 'stopping hate' [lol] before they started hating on the Anti-Marxist protestors.
How do you even make this crap up? It reads like something out of The Onion.
And finally, almost on cue, WashPo implies that Trump has something to do with the left's madness by asserting that 'such violence has become a regular feature of the Trump years'.
Which is an absolute crock, because the far left has been on a violent rampage since long before Trump came along.
WashPo did Orwell proud on this one.
