I think this line has been toed up to several times in the last few years, on both sides of the political spectrum.
There was a huge backlash to CA prop-8 a few years ago, and an effort was made to 'out' its supporters. One of the key reasons old CEO Brendan Eich of Mozilla was fired. [0]
In WI a few years ago, there was a recall attempt against the governor, and there was a large effort to identify all the petition signers, and people lost jobs, had appointments to govt panels rescinded, etc. [1]
As much as I can't stand it, and I think it ruins their message (and makes them look like thugs) I'm starting to understand why people at rallies for antifa wear something covering their faces..
