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

[ProgKing of the North]

The early NRxers, like moldbug, observed that for the past 500 years ago civilization has been moving steadily leftwards, in some sense, and I tend to agree with that.

Despite all this era's flaws, though, this is, broadly speaking, the most prosperous time in human history, so even if this is true I don't see how that's a bad thing.

I think all the clown world shit that’s going on is because we’re so prosperous right now. People have enough time on their hands to do exceptional behavior, and the amount of available information means that people will easily to able to cherry pick and hang out in echo chambers so almost every bizarro ideology takes off. Also people like the idea of “fighting” for something but there aren’t any major conflicts so they cling to ideologues.

You're right, things are pretty good right now. Things will be good until they aren't.

It's hard to predict what day it will happen, but with unfunded entitlements of over 100 trillion (and plenty of politicians looking to add to that total), unchecked immigration from some of the world's poorest countries, and our institutions and common culture rotting from the inside, the US is going to implode like a supernova in the not too distant future. Things will accelerate if someone like Liz Warren gets in the White House but it will happen regardless.

I don't expect a civil war. Your average American is in their late 30's, is fat and lazy, and either has diabetes or is pre-diabetic. Political violence will continue, though.

 

[tuscangarder]

When they are hitting people in the head with crowbars......did they ever realize that if they killed someone they would go to prison for a long time, possibly life, and be surrounded by violent literal Nazis? Pretty sure there are no antifa gangs to link up with in there.

 

[Notgoodwithusernames]

-saying the attack was staged
-claiming the cement milkshakes are a hoax that the police is in on
-trying to justify the assault because of random right wing attacks that are unrelated to this incident
-claiming that ANTIFA was provoked
-justifying the assault by saying that he isn’t a journalist
-and of course, calling a bunch of people fascists

These are the same people who always talk about “right wing violence and false flag conspiracies” whenever a nut job does something violent. It seems like the same thing doesn’t apply when it’s one of their guys though.

These people almost made me go full doomer until I remembered that they’re just a clique of ideologies.

If you don't have ICE, and USBCP, you don't have a country to "be proud of", not that I think any of these middle-class larpers have an iota of pride in the USA.

And jesus christ, this fuck needs to move back to whatever sister-fucking, knuckle-dragging, mouth-breathing trailer park he came from and stop larping as a fucking commie, because his first 2 points are referring to shit that predates the Trump Administration, and none of it actually defines a "fascist government." Why are these people so fucking exceptional?

Ah, you've met Beau of the Fifth Column (aka: Justin Eric King).

Fun fact: he was convicted of one count of conspiracy to commit Visa fraud (make false statements) [18 U.S.C. § 371], seven through eleven counts of Visa fraud (making false statements) [18 U.S.C. §§ 1546(a) and 2] and conspiracy to encourage aliens to unlawfully enter and reside in the United States [8 U.S.C. § 1324(a)(1)(A)(iv),(a)(1) (A)(v)(I) and (a)(1)(B)(i)], for which he was sentenced to forty one months in prison which he served thirty two months.

A document titled "Florida Strategic Plan on Human Trafficking" from Florida State University with support from the Florida Bar Association featured this very case in great detail:

Destin King labor trafficking case ( 2008 ). Labor trafficking is not confined to Florida’s agricultural sector, but is increasingly found in Florida’s hospitality and tourism industries as well. The Florida Panhandle was the location of a criminal investigation that culminated in the 2008 conviction of both U.S. citizen Justin King and a number of Russian nationals for smuggling aliens to work in Florida resorts.

The Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office had for several years been scrutinizing patterns of labor trafficking in the area of Destin and Fort Walton Beach. Beginning as early as 1999, Russian nationals Anna Czerwien, Aleksander Berman, and Stan Finkel began supplying young Eastern European men and women to Panhandle resorts for janitorial and maid services. Operating under the name of Eurohouse Holding Corporation, they brought the Eastern European workers to the Florida Panhandle for short term work on temporary J-1 or H-2B visas. The vast majority of the workers were females between the ages of 19 and 23. Moreover, most were also students who were intent upon returning after several months to their homes in Eastern Europe to continue their studies.

Many had been promised non-existent jobs when they were recruited in their home countries. Upon their arrival in the Florida Panhandle, they were instead employed for substandard wages 28 by Eurohouse and assigned to work in local hotels and resorts. Eurohouse operated as a labor subcontractor, providing services to hotels such as the Sandestin Hilton. Eurohouse was able to offer the “low bid” on labor contracts precisely because they did not pay federal minimum wages to their employees. They further charged the students between $1500 and $2500 each for visa processing, job placement, and transportation fees. In addition, the young workers were charged to stay 15 to 20 persons per condominium throughout a variety of locations throughout the Panhandle. Enforcement was carried out by verbal abuse, threats of violence, and threats of fines or non-payment of wages. Almost all the young workers had a plane ticket allowing them to return to their home countries at the end of the summer tourism season, but they would have incurred substantial costs were they to try to fly home at an earlier date. The labor trafficking conspiracy overall proved lucrative and seemingly insulated from law enforcement oversight: because the victims were exploited on a temporary basis, they most often simply chose to return home at the end of the summer without reporting the exploitation or participating in an investigation.

This pattern finally changed in 2003 with the exploitation of a group of foreign nationals predominantly from Bulgaria and Rumania. With their assistance, the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office discovered a further criminal conspiracy that involved even more extensive visa fraud and alien smuggling on the part of Eurohouse officials. The ensuing investigation also revealed that U.S. citizen Justin King was employed as the front man for Eurohouse, negotiating new contracts with hotel owners and communicating with state and federal agencies to further the conspiracy. As part of his role in the criminal operation, King submitted over a thousand fraudulent visa applications. King and his co-conspirators were found to have brought in over 200 foreign nationals to work as hotel housekeepers through the use of these illegally-obtained visas.

Evidence presented at trial showed that King and his co-conspirators had used forged hotel letterheads to further their scam. Most of the foreign national workers brought in through the fraudulent visa scheme were eventually contracted out to hotels and resorts other than those 29 who had supposedly sponsored them for their visa. Finally, it was revealed that when the federal government had become suspicious and stopped issuing visas to Eurohouse, King and the other defendants had continued their fraudulent activity under the guise of a new labor contracting company called Woland. King was convicted on seven counts of visa fraud and alien smuggling and sentenced to 41 months in prison. Czerwien, Berman, and Finkel received respective sentences of 18, 23, and 12 months in prison. The defendants were also found to be liable for joint forfeiture of $1 million.

Curiously, human trafficking charges were not a part of the prosecution. The U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Florida would later note that the criminal behavior had in fact included all the elements that would have established forced labor under Title 18 Section 1589 (in particular, the use of labor obtained through false promises, through threats of serious harm, or through abuse of law or of legal process—i.e., threats of deportation).

The King labor trafficking case is a very clear indicator of the degree to which forced labor and abusive labor practices may have permeated the Florida hotel and tourism industries in recent years. The Eurohouse investigation furthermore revealed that numerous companies acting as “temp labor” staffing agencies are operating throughout Florida and the nation. Many of these agencies are owned and operated by people from Eastern Europe (Poland, and the Czech Republic) or states of the former Soviet Union (Estonia, Russia, and Uzbekistan). There appears to be a high degree of interconnectivity between the companies, strong indicators of organized crime, and similar patterns of exploitation practiced by the suspect companies.

Ongoing investigations of labor trafficking throughout Florida also demonstrate that U.S. citizens are increasingly involved in the exploitative practices. They operate what have been referred to as “quasi-legitimate companies” relying once again on the labor of foreign nationals who arrive on J-1 or H-2B visas. These labor leasing companies are recruiting laborers from countries not traditionally associated with providing workers for Florida’s hospitality industries: Argentina, Costa Rica, Jamaica, the Philippines, and Brazil. The companies increasingly lease 30 workers on a weekly or monthly basis to hotels, resorts, construction companies, golf courses, condominium rental properties, restaurants, and souvenir/tee-shirt shops.

Investigations to date indicate that this is a multi-million dollar a year business in Florida alone and is growing. It is also a business that is essentially unregulated. Because they are for the most part unlicensed, these labor leasing companies in Florida are not subject to DBPR investigations or sanctions. The Florida Labor Pool Act (Chapter 448 FSS) addresses day laborers, but does not cover seasonal workers. A similar gap exists in Florida Migrant Labor laws—Chapter 450 FSS addresses temporary agricultural laborers but there is no corresponding Florida law to protect temporary workers in the hospitality industry. These gaps are an invitation for exploitative labor practices, and need to be redressed immediately by legislative and regulatory responses. Hundreds of victims are estimated to be exploited annually in this manner throughout Florida.

Mr. King doesn't seem to be the least bit perturbed though:

I guess I'm going to have to at some point, but I'm putting it off as long as I possibly can for the reasons outlined in this video. Things I will say now: I'm not CIA, nor was I ever. I'm not an ex-human trafficker. I am an ex-contractor, but most of the stories floating around about me are false or highly embellished.

Now this is interesting. I've never seen this before or maybe I never really read it. This at least gives some explanation to me as to where this idea came from. This makes it sound like I was involved in actions committed by those working for this company from 1999 to 2003. I didn't even start working with the company until late 2005 (Something easily confirmed via DOJ press releases, court documents, and testimony). I don't exactly know if any of the claims about what happened from 1999 to 2004 are true, but I know that in early 2005 the owner of the company began looking for somebody to clean house. That was me. As far as my involvement in the alleged smuggling, suffice it to say I was convicted. Trafficking? The people who were alleged to have been smuggled during my tenure threw a surprise party for me when I was released and still send me wedding invites, birth announcements, and updates on how they are doing. Not the typical relationship you have with someone who exploited you. You're also right about how the state frames things in court. You might find this article interesting: https://thefifthcolumnnews.com/2017/08/why-i-put-down-the-gun-and-picked-up-the-pen/

For the record, my accent is what you hear on most of the current videos. I do, at times, play it up still. Beau is a nickname, and the whole thing kind of started as a gag when other journalists found out I had an accent. There was never any intention to hide who I am. "The Fifth Column" is a dead giveaway, and the first video on the Beau facebook page starts off with "Justin said I'd be more effective on my own channel" because prior to that all of the videos using my nickname were on my personal page. There's also tons of Easter eggs for my core readership throughout the videos. In the video where I mention Benghazi, I say the team couldn't control their client and follow it with "believe me, it happens". That's a joke for people who knew my background. Yes, most contracting/consulting is incredibly boring. Obviously, at times, I got into some more interesting aspects of it, but overall it's sitting around waiting.

Press release with my date of starting with the company.

I've seen a few blogs about me, I never really read them that closely. What other people think of me isn't really my business unless they directly tell me. The idea of me taking a deal falls apart with a number of easily verifiable facts. First, I took the case to trial. A plea deal requires you to plead guilty. Second, the sentence itself. In the federal system, everything is governed by the United States Sentencing Commission. The most serious charge is the controlling sentence and everything else is ran concurrently by default. There's literally a chart and guidelines. For my case (see page 258 of first link), the base offense level is 12, plus 9 for having smuggled more than 100 people. The gives you an offense level of 21. Then you go to the chart (second link). Without prior criminal history, you're in category I. 21 levels equals a sentence range of 37 to 46 months. To go outside this range, the judge is supposed to have a very good reason. I was sentenced to 41. Then you're supposed to get 15% off for good behavior and an additional 6 months of taken off as time in a halfway house. I didn't even get all of the standard time off. lol.

I found this gem to prove the incident at Cider Riot...

It is hilarious because this is what they are passing around in lieu of like a video or photo or medical report or you know...evidence...

I guess every slip and fall is true as well.

In case you're wondering how ANTIFA gets away with all this shit in Portland?

The Mayor, who's tweeted support of Antifa and their actions in Portland?

Yeah, he's also the Police Commissioner for Portland.

How's them apples?

There are Antifa/communist prison gangs, but they're all black gangs (and a few Hispanic gangs), and this soyboy seems prime material for linking up with them. Hope he treats his new pimps well.

There should really be a class action suit against the city of Portland and any other government body in on this. You'd think we left governments supporting civil rights violations (that's what this is, by the way) by masked thugs back in the 60s. And just like the Feds did in Arkansas and elsewhere in the south, the Feds might need to do the same in these shithole cities in states ran by dumbfucks like the psycho in Commiefornia and the dumb bitch in Oregon.

No black gang is communist or antifa. They are either black supremacist, nation of Islam, or your run of the mill street gang. The closest thing to communist would be Nation of Islam but that doesnt count because it is based off of Sharia law and nothing to do with political communism. Their beliefs would be considered fascist to antifa.

Most west coast prisons are extremely racially self segregated. All federal prisons are self racially segregated. Mingling with another race will get you murdered or severely beat at the least. If the antifa is white and ends up in prisons, they will be forced to deal with Nazis. I don't think they have thought this part through very well. If they try beating a Nazi up in prison, they'll just end up dead. Prison culture is as "fascist", racist, and homophobic as it gets.

[Flynt's Missing Pecker]

Most west coast prisons are extremely racially self segregated. All federal prisons are self racially segregated.

All prisons across the world segregate themselves along racial lines. It is a fantastic argument why communism will never work and why ethnostates do work. People will always have a greater affinity to their race than their ‘class’.

 

[Ravelord]

Not to get too far off topic, but Spain largely fell because Franco held them up in cities which they were obsessed with defending while going and taking vast swathes of the countryside. then as things went tits up the leftists started infighting.

If the US went spain 2.0 the right would just need to us a token force to put NY SF LA and Portland under seige while taking other areas to achieve the same result.

To add to the in-fighting, Catalonia also didn't bother helping out because "muh independence" until it was too late and they surrendered quicker. So left losing the left way.

 

[tuscangarder]

All prisons across the world segregate themselves along racial lines. It is a fantastic argument why communism will never work and why ethnostates do work. People will always have a greater affinity to their race than their ‘class’.

Ethnostates still have sub-cultures that identify as being other than the rest of the population. See the Spain and Catalonian separation movement. These people are identical but Catalonians claim to be not Spanish. They feel they have a different culture and hate Spain. They are literally just Spanish people that speak Catalonian. Fascist Spain back in the day attempted to stomp out the Catalonian separtist setinment but clearly failed as it still exists today. People can be the same race and feel like they aren't.

The races in prisons are divided by gang affiliation as well. The bloods and crips aren't pals in there, even though they are the same race.

An ethnostate is not garunteed to automatically work. It is just like any other social system. It depends on a lot of factors.

Black Guerilla Family is a black prison gang which at one point made Marxism a key part of their ideology but I don't know how important Marxism is to them nowadays. Latin Kings also have third world revolution as part of their official ideology but they don't do much with that except helping cartels move drugs here with the help of their many illegal immigrant members. But I wouldn't call black supremacy antithetical to the sort of communism your average Antifa believes in which is beyond plagued with identity politics.

Antifa are usually mindless dolts, but assuming a thought manages to trickle its way through the rotten synapses of their soy-ravaged brain it would be: "I am on the right side of history."
They literally believe that what they are doing it right and just and that they would never suffer consequence - and maybe they are right for now. The Mayor of Portland orders the cops to stand down and not arrest them, and even where they are - like the Bike Lock Basher (Eric Clanton, attempted murderer), they get free legal representation and probation.

 

[Positron]

I browsed twitter for around 5 minutes and I already saw blue check marks:

-saying the attack was staged
-claiming the cement milkshakes are a hoax that the police is in on
-trying to justify the assault because of random right wing attacks that are unrelated to this incident
-claiming that ANTIFA was provoked
-justifying the assault by saying that he isn’t a journalist
-and of course, calling a bunch of people fascists

They are all extremely predictable; that's why they are called NPCs.

 

[Graffiti canvas]

Seattle was held back from true exceptionalism for a long time by it still having some blue collar industry and by having corporations that were more concerned about doing business than going woke. I don't know if Portland ever had that. It's always been kind of a backwater with a lot more pink-collar jobs than blue. San Francisco hasn't given a shit about the working class for at least 40 years.

I figured it was the beginning of the end when the Seattle city council laughed at the suggestion that they should be concerned about the port, one of the last big employers that still offer good-paying blue-collar jobs. And they laughed about it when discussing building a new arena, not anything that would actually be useful to the city. Seattle's loss will be Tacoma's gain.

I was going to bring up Seattle's roots in manufacturing and the blue collar industry, but I figured it would be lost on most. You're absolutely right. Seattle's life blood always came from the working class. The seaports, logging, aerospace, smelting, the Rainer Beer brewery and bottling company, the list goes on. While people were always generally more open minded about alternate lifestyles and ideas than say, other blue collar cities in Ohio or some shit, they were also realistic and pragmatic about how shit works down in the real wold of paying bills and making a living.

When manufacturing took a huge downturn in the 2000's, and startup tech companies moved in to replace them, the balance began to change and it started to look and feel more like a city that wanted to eat it's own feet to be special. I don't know why liberal cities like to shit on manufactuing and the trades and then whine about lack of employment and steady wages, but it really do be like that.

One of the most shocking things about the economy there is the cost of housing. I grew up in a run down, 3 bedroom house in the metro area. I visited not too long ago and drove by it. It's now a shit hole in a shit hole neighborhood with a massive crime problem and a nearby housing project known for it's gang and thug population. The roof of my old house is moss grown with holes now and sagging visibly from the street. It clearly needs a shit ton of repairs to make it habitable.

$460k to purchase it. Almost a half a million to buy a dilapidated house 2 blocks from a housing project in a high crime area that needs extensive renovations and repairs.

 

[AnOminous]

That woman is doing wonders for the stereotype that little more than "Fuck you, Dad" sits at the center of their entire worldview.

I hope for her fellow travelers' sake she's a troll. If not, she's proving every stereotype.

It's increasingly hard to tell the Godfrey Elfwicks and Titania McGraths from the real nutcases. They're just such laughable, hilarious parodies of themselves.

Private citizens are allowed to post known information about individuals of interest to the public, and journalists definitely have that prerogative, within the strictures of the relevant Code of Ethics.

We have that right under the First Amendment, general free speech concepts that exist in some form in most of the civilized world, various UN conventions, and because fuck these people that's why.

No black gang is communist or antifa. They are either black supremacist, nation of Islam, or your run of the mill street gang. The closest thing to communist would be Nation of Islam but that doesnt count because it is based off of Sharia law and nothing to do with political communism. Their beliefs would be considered fascist to antifa.

The original Black Panthers were heavily Maoist-influenced, and there are a number of other such groups, many of them defunct in their original form, like the originally Marxist-Leninist Black Guerilla Family, now more or less just a prison gang with some semi-political trappings, much as "Nazi" prison gangs often are. The general Black Power movement in its early form of the '60s was also heavily informed by Marxist-Leninist-Maoist thinking even when not overtly Communist.

Outside of academia, though, you don't really see much of that any more and even radical action groups like BLM are usually more concerned with specific, practical things than pushing socialism itself.
