Two of the six far-left extremists Antifa suspects involved in the brutal beating of a German television crew have been revealed as coming from a privileged middle-class background, originally from a well-off Swabian town.
The two suspects, 27-year-old Miriam S. and her 25-year-old brother Simon S., were arrested shortly after the attack on a camera crew of German broadcaster ZDF on May 1st in Berlin that sent four members of the crew to the hospital with various injuries suffered during the brutal assault.
The background of the pair has now been revealed by German newspaper Die Welt which reports that the two Antifa extremists originally come from the small wealthy town of Schwaigern near Heilbronn in the historic Swabia region, now divided between Baden-Wurttemberg and Bavaria.

That’s why talk of a CWII with these kids is a joke.
The battle would start at 7am and be over by 10 or 11am. In time for brunch :)
As MONSTROUS and HORRIFIC as the nazis were, they were also brought up in Brutal conditions and notoriously tough on the battlefield.
Many soldiers fighting against them have attested to that.
Doesn’t make then ANY LESS of the SICK MONSTERS that they were.
But they did not grow up in splendor. They grew up poor and in a mess of a country. That makes for tougher men later on
These antifa faggots wouldn’t fight if the temperature outside was too hot or too cold.
Were these Auntie-Fascists the ones protesting the lockdown or were they counterprotesting the government shutdown protest or was Communist AF merely celebrating Communist May Day?
The German Army at that time was indeed a formidable foe, no doubt about it. Their armor was superior to anything the allies had, their artillery, when properly co- ordinated and supplied could be devastating and the MG 42 was without a doubt the most fearsome machine gun ever designed. It's still in use. But Antifa? Pfft. Punks.
Yeah, but then they invaded Russia and learned a new definition of "tough" and "brutal."
“Were these Auntie-Fascists the ones protesting the lockdown or were they counterprotesting the government shutdown protest or was Communist AF merely celebrating Communist May Day?”
The Left pretty much supports the lockdowns because they think that an economic collapse serves their interests, and/or they think that the government providing for people will show the efficacy of their beliefs. I’ve seen Leftists on Twitter claiming that Republicans want to end the shutdowns before too many people start seeing how great socialized _________ really is. Really. They believe this.
Kick boxing teacher eh? Well if it comes to that: meet my little friend.
Winter is a monster there.
Why someone thought a blitz would work there was insane.
but they did kill an INCREDIBLY large number of Russians.
Can’t make it sound like they did no damage.
They did tremendous damage in number of russian lives lost.
But they stuck around for the winter :)
Antifa is more violent than the Nazi Brownshirts.
And how many of the 9/11 attackers were wealthy? Nearly all came from well to do families. Same for the show bomber. The answer could be that only the rich have the spare time and cash to do this.
If you told most working class dogs that they needed to take a month off and go to Portland and march in the street they wouldn’t be able to afford it. Lots of Americans who wanna travel abroad plan ahead and save and then buy that international ticket when it fits the budget. The underwear bomber walked up in Paris, had no passport, bought a same day airline ticket to the USA. Not cheap.
From Wikipedia about Che Guevara “Very early on in life, Ernestito (as he was then called) developed an “affinity for the poor”” Of course he came from a very comfortable background.
Bernadine Dohrn came from a comfortable background and Bill Ayers was from a wealthy family.
And then we have good old Bin Ladin himself.
You gotta have idle time and a lot of money layng around to be a terrorist.
Shades of the Baader-Meinhof Gang.
Typical violent Democrats.
A review of 20th century history should cause one to never underestimate the bloodthirstiness, viciousness and fanaticism of leftists.
This article is the first I’ve seen to ID them as AF.
The original report I saw last week discussed some “extremist protesters” who assaulted a video crew getting footage of the lockdown protest for a satirical program.
Originally it made it seem like those who opposed the shutdown were attacking the media.
The Weather Underground and Yippies came from privileged background.
The LSD compound in upstate New York was old money.
Plenty of well funded extremists promoting revolution.
AF doesn’t like anyone videoing them or their crimes.
Just as Occupy pressured women not to go public with charges when they were raped.
Anarchists are the shock troops of Bolshevism
“Originally it made it seem like those who opposed the shutdown were attacking the media.”
Sounds like typical Fake News trickery. Were they “extremists”? Arguably. Were they protesting? Looks like they were at least in attendance at a protest. Perfect opportunity for the media to try to shape a narrative for their own dishonest purposes.
