Antifa is just the latest incarnation of the Revolutionary Communist Party/Workers’ World, etc, etc.

They are gearing up for celebrating the centennial of the ultimately failed Bolshevik revolution.

Nothing new under the sun.

“Activists seek peace through violence.”

In the long run, “Peace through superior firepower” might be a losing proposition for them.

Liberals and other leftists, anarchists, and communists are self proclaimed enemies of America and want to bring it to it’s knees. This will not be tolerated.

Antifa members also sometimes launch attacks against people who aren’t physically attacking them. The movement, Crow said, sees alt-right hate speech as violent, and for that, its activists have opted to meet violence with violence.

In short, the thugs feel they can beat people up who disagree with them... Effing little brownshirts.

Right or wrong, “that’s for history to decide,” he said.

Here's to a brief and harsh decision.

Sounds like vigilante justice to me, you know, the thing that the Klan used to do.

Who is enriched from a broken window? The local window company, the big corporation glass manufacturer and the big corporation insurance company who raises premiums, the local police department, the local branch of the big corporation race business and, the local city hall, who must now increase its budget supported by property and retail taxes, despite the exodus of people living or shopping there.

What these Dune-meets-Mockingjay cosplay anarchists fail to grasp in their narrowness, is they are supporting the same big corporations, the same police, the same city hall they claim to hate along with supporting the racemonger industry - at the expense of an innocent shopkeeper who’s support they think they’re gaining.

Antifa is a terrorist group. Assaults police & others with violence and biohazards!

Yes! I think their last incarnation was the Anarchists who have been rioting at all the all the G-8 Conferences, etc.

They look the same, carry same flags and signage, and of course, act the same :(

They have just changed their name in an attempt to rebrand..

Are you actually suggesting what the klan is known for is justice? It's one thing to oppose antifa; but to provide moral sanction for the klan is something else entirely.
