Osler's Razor

 No, "Grosse Pointe Antifa" is not a traditional haiku subject (usually they are about nature). But it brought some good work to the fore!

Christine, from Grosse Pointe, was first and best (she is referring to the "Phyllis Osler Singers," who are no longer affiliated with Phyllis Osler):

Dressed in their finest
from Brooks Brothers and Hickey's;
Martini in hand

Grosse Pointe elite
Loot the local village stores
with Amex in hand

While sidewalk strolling
Osler's - Grosse Pointe Antifa
sing silly carols.

We also heard from IPLawGuy, who has been to Grosse Pointe, but mostly was thinking about the movie:

John Cusack knew it!
Went back to stop "The Grocer"
Antifa Ackroyd.

My dad (who was, I think, referred to as "Commander Spike" in an unrelated, anonymous poem) gave us this clever twist:

Planning to overturn
some pancakes.. perfect cover
green pants and pink shirt.

The Medievalist came in with this one:

Secret antifa,
Destroying Amerika,
Vote Michigan.

And an anonymous Grosse Pointer brought us this:

Lilly Pulitzer
THE Country Club of Detroit
Grosse Pointe Antifa.
