Is Antifa also an “extremist group” that The Punk Governor refuses to condemn?
Yes.
He should condemn AntiFA and BLM with equal fervor. It takes no courage to condemn the Klan and Neo-Nazi’s. Very few real Americans have any sympathy for BLM and AntiFa, failure to denounce them makes it appear that Trump supports them - bad move.
BTW, as despicable as Neo-Nazis and the Klan are, hasn’t the left told us for decades that reprehensible speech (flag burning, pornography and sedition) have to be defended even more vigorously than “mainstream” speech?
The Nazis, and even the KKK, never were “right wing” in any honest appraisal of their demands and objectives. They are both “racist” in that certain specified demographics are considered to be “undesirable” and therefore unworthy of even minimal rights. But is that in any way qualitatively different that wanting to place all WHITE people in an inferior position, and giving ascendancy ONLY to “non-white” or “persons of color”?
“Right wing” and “racist” have very wrongly been conflated as being all part of the same body of traits, and are not, have not been, sharing much if anything in common. The blazing hatred of anything “conservative” or “libertarian” (two different philosophies, by the way, which share much in common) may only be compared to the contempt once held for other races or religious persuasions, a very marked characteristic of the ideologies of Communist, National Socialist, and the Sharia Law of Islam.
And also the BLM and Antifa, which are just another form of “command and control” fanatics in different dress.
This is a critical time where the left declaring that they alone have the right to air their grievances.
and they are willing to fight to protect their prerogatives.
