ANTIFA / Antifascist Action / Antifaschistische Aktion - The anti-fascist gang with fascist tendencies

AntiFa in Russia is less overtly Communist.

It just attracts guys who want to kick some heads in while feeling morally justified in doing so.

That's probably true for a lot of the Nazis as well.

It's a little tougher to sell Communism as being anti-authoritarian in a country where most of the living people remember actual Communism.

I don't think anyone thinks of them as being anti-authoritarian, but the Communists were legitimately the biggest opposition party to Yeltsin during the brief democratic period in the 1990s. Their support base mostly came from older people who wanted the USSR back. You have to remember that Russia suffered a recession worse than the Great Depression in the 1990s. Crime skyrocketed past Brazil even for a few years, and Russia's GDP didn't fully recover back to Soviet levels until the mid 2000s. It's easy to see why millions of people wanted the old ways back, rough as they were.

Seems the tables have turned this time around. I don't agree with the use of violence by either side, but you can't say it wasn't coming.

Looks like the folks on the right have finally had enough of their bullshit, and figured "hey, if they can get away with using violence, why can't we?"

Of course, the first thing an ANTIFAfag would do when given a taste of their own medicine would be to go tattletale and BAWWWL to the jerkops, which usually results in the officer(s) just laughing at him/her.

What antifa has done is decided that peaceful demonstrations are now going to be fights. That's the message the public is taking away. The normies are going to stay away, but the people who do continue to show up will be the people who actually like rumbling and are probably better at it than these pasty fucks. They'll also start coming prepared for when it moves beyond fists.

Hey, what comes around goes around, thats how I see it. You wont see me shedding any tears over ANTIFA blood anytime soon, thats for sure. Let these clowns know their place.

I don't really have proof, but I heard from somebody that Antifa members were raiding the /r/theDonald discord servers and PMing members threats and actual child porn and when it was reported to the Discord dev team, they laughed it off and didn't believe them. I've heard that they're a bunch of Hilary supporting millennials, which if this is true, would explain a lot. Hilary has been accused of allowing the child porn industry to stay intact.

As I said, I don't have any hard evidence, just someone telling me that they knew someone who was on the receiving end of this, so take it with a grain of salt. I still think it's worth looking into, though.

Here's some pictures to show where I got this, but I've blocked out people's names and icons, since they're not the ones making the claims. They just heard it from someone.

I think Boston's Antifa deserves its own thread. Watch the entire video and make the call:

They got a libertarian convention shut down by calling in bomb threats.
http://www.thelibertyconservative.c...drop-libertarian-festival-event-now-jeopardy/

Terror threats from ANTIFA leftists have put next weekend’s Mid-Atlantic Liberty Festival in jeopardy. After left-libertarians released a call to arms vowing resistance, bomb threats were allegedly called in to the Hilton in Harrisburg, who were forced to cancel the event.

“To me, it is horrifying that in the United States a fringe group can get away with its threats of violence, but such is the world in which we live,” event organizer Steve Scheetz said in a public Facebook post explaining the situation.

The entire controversy arose after a debate was scheduled between former Libertarian Party Senate hopeful Augustus Invictus and Will Coley of Muslims for Liberty on the issue of border security. ANTIFA-aligned left-libertarians took umbrage with the fact that Invictus, who they allege to be a fascist without any clear evidence, was allowed to speak at the event. Instead of finding a like-minded group that doesn’t respect the values of free speech and free expression, they declared war against the event instead.

But not every libertarian is outraged at these leftist terror threats. Some have even applauded or excused these leftist terror tactics because of their disdain for Invictus.


“Maybe you guys can feature Isis next time. You can have a ‘peaceful exchange of ideas’ about crucifying children for not fasting during Ramadan,” left-libertarian Brandon Bitros stated in an apparent open justification of the terrorist threats committed by ANTIFA.

“Invite fascists, deal with Antifa,” left-libertarian Leslee Ann Petersen said in a smug response. Libertarian Party Chairman Nicholas Sarwark chimed in with no condemnation of the terrorist threats, only to echo Petersen’s sentiments in an apparent indication that ANTIFA’s threats were justified or at least understandable.

Event organizers are scrambling to find another venue right now. With only seven days before the event is scheduled, it remains to be seen if it will be postponed or canceled.

holy fucking shit.

i'd have called bluff. if it was true and they really did decide to try and bomb the place, i guess we'd be both jackasses

Bomb threats are almost always fake.

Building a bomb in reality tends to be a long and tedious process and people who build them usually want to be as quiet as possible.

"In simple terms, real bombers bomb; they don’t make bomb threats."

I dont know where to put this so i put it here.
This is a statement of an ANTIFA dancing club that decreased its entrance fee to 50ct for refugees for more cultural enrichment. They later had to redact it due to some happenings - they gave this statement.

They're definitely going to start drawing some more FBI attention at this point.

The authoritarian and patriarchal socialization of some refugees in some home countries on the one hand and the liberal western party culture on the other resulted in an explosive mixture and led to an increase in sexist comments and harassment at Conne Island and other venues. Consequently, female guests chose not to attend our parties to avoid situations like these. Due to these incidents, we have to ask ourselves very clearly whether our solidarity with the affected people had the right outcome for them or whether we just rested on our previous efforts to fight sexism.
The abuse of our so-called ‘50 Cent for Refugees’ which gives refugees the opportunity to pay only 50 cents for admission to our parties caught our attention when larger groups of young male immigrants took advantage of the cheap admission price to cause trouble, especially at weekend dance events. Their refugee status was doubted by us. However, we cannot and do not want to check the residence status of any of our guests. The insecurity of our security personnel towards immigrants because of language barriers and the unjustified accusation of racism aggravated our efforts to resolve conflicts in many cases.

It's like Breitbart is writing reality. It's glorious.

I believe that's the outcome Antifa's organizers want.

Antifa have been whining about their enemies being "Nazis" and "fascists" and saying any tactic is okay when dealing with them because they're dangerous and Antifags have to "defend" themselves. That language followed by their own violent acts looks like insanity to observers because it's clearly unprovoked.

But the free speech opposition looks less persuasive every time someone fights back because the claims of self defense and fascism start to look plausible to anyone just tuning in. I'm not a pacifist, but I worry about the effects of giving in.

According to antifa a bus had speech, it didn't like. Remember kiddies free speech is hate speech.

What the fuck are they doing in Orange County, let alone Huntington Beach? Lol! Did they want to get the shit beaten out of them?

In case you all didn't know. like they clearly didn't, Orange County has historically been a right-leaning county for years, despite it being directly south of Los Angeles. I had an old professor that called it the "red-strong hold of coastal Southern California." The only way they could have picked a worse location to "punch Nazis" is if they decided to hold a counter protest anywhere in the Central Valley that wasn't Sacramento.

It wouldn't be up to you, though. Threats like these are meant to intimidate the business owner, who doesn't give a shit about either of you, but doesn't want his place of business exploded.

It's a pretty good place to find Nazis to punch, actually, including actual, literal Nazis, so long as you don't mind them punching back. Or that they might not wait for you to hit first.
