Does Antifa = neo-fascism?

Cardinal said:
What's more important, that Democrats were the home of racists in the 60's, or that Republicans are the home of racists now?



I happen to be punching a Nazi that I've got in a headlock right now, so if I'm making any spelling or grammatical errors you can blame it on him.



Alright, well you just punch away then.



Doing a search through 30 pages for "anti-fa" would take a while. What point were you going to prove anyway?

Sorry, I just got lost in all the Nazi and Communist punching you were currently engaged in.
 
The Real Threat to Our Republic Is the Orwellian Antifa

[FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]Over the past few months, we have finally entered the fully realized historical revisionism promised in George Orwell’s “1984,” in which the motto, “Who controls the present controls the past. Who controls the past controls the future,” was central to shaping the book’s dystopian world. In the book, history was continually being rewritten and re-promulgated to meet the political necessities of the moment. There was no history to be remembered, let alone lessons to be learned.
For all the talk of Trumpian bluster or exaggeration, there is only one group that seeks to systematically and violently achieve its goals here in the United States on a broad scale: the so-called “anti-facist” movement, now commonly called “Antifa.” And the goal? It’s not “anti-facist” or “anti-racist” as they attempt to portray themselves. It’s the systematic elimination of free speech, free assembly, and free thought via any means necessary, including violent protest, the media and Orwellian revisionism.



It is the imposition of a perverse type of intolerance based on Marxist and Chinese communist values that, it turns out, is far more welcome and pervasive within the Democrat Party of Sens. Bernie Sanders (D-Vt.) and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) than neo-Nazis, the KKK and white supremacists are in the Republican Party. The gunman, James Hodgkinson, who shot Rep. Steve Scalise and four others in Alexandria was a habitual Antifa website visitor and advocate and Sanders volunteer. Even Democrat vice presidential candidate, Sen. Tim Kaine’s (D-Va.) sonhas been identified as an Antifa activist. . . .[/FONT]

According to a 2010 article in AlterNet, and Ned Ryun himself, 75% of the funding for American Majority came from the Sam Adams Alliance a Tea Party group associated with dark money man Eric O'Keefe. In 2008, the year in which American Majority was founded, 88% of the alliance’s money came from a single donation of $3.7 million.[14] [1]

American Majority is a 501(c)(3) right-wing nonprofit political training group established in January, 2008 that "trains and equips a national network of leadership committed to individual freedom through limited government and the free market." Its goal is to train budding Tea Party candidates

I would venture to state that Antifa is more inline with the Communist Manifesto than anything else. Karl Marx encouraged the removal of symbols and statues that related to history of a country and replace them with meaningless art. I read the other day that there are those who are partitioning and calling to replace the Robert E. Lee statue with a famous female rapper.

I'm not too interested in statues of R.E. Lee. I'd rather see statues of W.T. Sherman across the south.

But Robert E. Lee is part of the history of this country. His father was a war hero in the Revolutionary War and R.E.Lee graduated second in his graduating class at West Point and prior to the Civil War was engaged in the Mexican War where he was wounded and was considered at the time a great soldier.

Unfortunately for Lee he lived in Virginia and that is why he was commissioned to lead the Confederacy. If he had lived in PA or OH the story would have a different ending.

However none of this has anything to do with my post. My point was to point to the actions of Antifa are quite similar to those in the Communist Manifesto.

Fair enough.
 
Black-clad anarchists attack right-wing demonstrators in Berkeley




The group of more than 100 hooded protesters turned up at what had been a largely peaceful protest against hate and attacked at least five people, including the leader of a conservative group who canceled an event a day earlier in San Francisco amid fears of violence.
