# Violent Antifa Demonstrators Do Not Look Normal by Stephen Miller > "It's not a coincidence that when you look at these violent Antifa demonstrations and you see any photograph of those who were assembled—to be blunt, not one of the people that is demonstrating looks like a normal person. Not one looks normal. They're all deformed in some way—in their appearance, in their dress, in their mannerism. ... Every one of them, through the course of their life and their decisions, has scarred their body and their appearance in many different ways, to the point in which their outer appearance becomes a manifestation of their inner hatred." > **— Stephen Miller**, *Ministerial on the Resurgence of Political Terrorism, July 16, 2026* ## Sources and Context - **Direct transcript:** [U.S. Department of State, Remarks at the Opening of the Ministerial on the Resurgence of Political Terrorism](https://www.state.gov/releases/office-of-the-spokesman/2026/07/remarks-at-the-opening-of-the-ministerial-on-the-resurgence-of-political-terrorism/), Stephen Miller remarks. - **Source dossier:** [[research/Ministerial on the Resurgence of Political Terrorism|Ministerial on the Resurgence of Political Terrorism]]. - **Editorial treatment:** The quotation preserves the opening and conclusion of one contiguous paragraph. The ellipsis removes Miller's repeated rhetorical questions and comparison with a “normal American”; dash typography and capitalization of Antifa are regularized. - **Context:** This expanded Reminder preserves Miller's attributed claim that the appearance, dress, and mannerisms he observes at violent Antifa demonstrations express an underlying hatred. ## Related Articles and Collections - **Collection:** [[collections/Simple Reminders|Simple Reminders]] - **Collection:** [[collections/Terrorism, Counterterrorism, and the Intelligence Environment|Terrorism, Counterterrorism, and the Intelligence Environment]] - **Collection:** [[collections/American|American Culture Collection]] - **Companion Reminder:** [[reminders/Identity/Outer Appearance Can Manifest Inner Hatred by Stephen Miller|Outer Appearance Can Manifest Inner Hatred]] ## Related Topics - [[wiki/Stephen Miller|Stephen Miller]] - [[wiki/Identity|Identity]] - [[wiki/Ministerial on the Resurgence of Political Terrorism|Ministerial on the Resurgence of Political Terrorism]] ## Share on Social Media ``` "It's not a coincidence that when you look at these violent Antifa demonstrations and you see any photograph of those who were assembled—to be blunt, not one of the people that is demonstrating looks like a normal person.
