Just pointing out that just because some decide to go by a certain name doesn't mean that is an accurate representation. Some of the people trying to say Antifa isn't that bad simply because the name they go by is short for Antifascist are usually quite defensive when anyone brings up the fact that Nazi is short for Nationalist Socialist. Oddly enough, the neonazis in America actually do support much of Bernie Sanders socialist platform so the name for them is relatively accurate, where as Antifa are pretty much against anyone that disagrees with them.

No. They are overzealous youths who think they are doing good. They don't realize all the are doing is making themselves look like violent criminals who riot against anyone who dares disagree with them politically or otherwise.

I agree and I also think they are weakling and dividing the democratic party.

Idiotic, entirely false, and hallucinatory statements like this are why I make a rule not to bother with you. I never said anything like that, and I don't even care where you got the idea I did.

OK Maybe it wasn't you that said that many were there to protest the removal of the statue. So you agree that anyone participating in that rally alongside Nazi's and white supremacists and wearing Trump hats were bigots and racists? I would like to hear you say that.

Please quote me where I said I support a vile piece of ****. If you're talking about Antifa, there's nothing to support because it's a twisted figment of your overactive imagination. You, on the other hand support Trump who is a very real piece of ****.

Oh, I'm very aware. Unlike you and your friends on the right I just don't need to make things up in order to try to make other people afraid.

I'm not saying that "Antifa isn't that bad". Anyone who advocates violence just to advance their point of view is a criminal. What I'm saying is that conservatives are lying by saying there's any significant American liberal support for such a movement.

Says you, who psychotically and compulsively tries to stoke fear by claiming communism and (I don't even know what that other thing is) has any significant support on the American left.

That doesn't surprise me.

And I didn't claim anything of the sort. You, on the other hand, are claiming that Nazis and white supremacists have significant support on the American right.

I have changed all the quotes to call you here today to watch a video from MSNBC. You should watch this. The outrage is getting louder and the masked faces are being exposed for what they are now by even the moderate left.

That video is incredibly disturbing.

I the fact that they have the support of the buffoon in the White House is pretty significant.

I think Antifa are on the right side. In Charlottesville, they were downright heroic.

My problem with them is that they're playing right into the Nazi's hands. We've seen this show before.

Historian Laurie Marhoefer writes:

"Violent confrontations with antifascists gave the Nazis a chance to paint themselves as the victims of a pugnacious, lawless left. They seized it.

It worked. We know now that many Germans supported the fascists because they were terrified of leftist violence in the streets. Germans opened their morning newspapers and saw reports of clashes like the one in Wedding [a Berlin neighborhood]. It looked like a bloody tide of civil war was rising in their cities. Voters and opposition politicians alike came to believe the government needed special police powers to stop violent leftists. Dictatorship grew attractive. The fact that the Nazis themselves were fomenting the violence didn’t seem to matter.

One of Hitler’s biggest steps to dictatorial power was to gain emergency police powers, which he claimed he needed to suppress leftist violence."

From a very good article by Chris Hedges. https://www.truthdig.com/articles/antifa-mirrors-alt-right/

I said before, and will say again, that the way to shut them up is to drown them out.

Show up. Don't look for a fight. Dance, sing, play drums and music. Ridicule them. Laugh at them. Hold a separate rally against hate.

Nazis crave violence. Don't fall for their tricks.

No more than it's "significant" that they endorsed and supported Occupy Wall Street.
 
Re: Is Antifa Heroic?

So far 2 think antifa is heroic, please expose yourselves. Good Grief what a mindset!

Do you or anyone else have any proof the guy with the polo shirt was a Nazi or racist in any way, no? Then your claims are unfounded and asinine at best.

Obama, Clinton and JFK are Nazi's!

That is so ****ing stupid.

PS your first pic is from an Alt-Right meeting, and the flag is a Union Jack. Has nothing to do with Nazi's. Hell even a black guy is in the pic. The second pick , whait! They are flashing the dread Nazi, OK sign! The last one does indeed show white supremacists in polo shirts! Oh no!

Hillary didn't make Bernie supporters commit violence. I'd bet money that Antifa were Bernie supporters.
