Antifa are despicable fascists — Call them that, openly, now
National Post ^ | Sept. 1, 2017 | Rex Murphy

We are fortunate to live in an age where the fight against neo-Nazis and white supremacy is taken so seriously. Only last week, reading the editorial and news reports from down south it was evident, especially after Charlottesville, that the days of the American Republic were numbered. A breathless media warned it was Germany in the early 1930s all over again. Fortunately the Republic has survived.

Who saved us all from a toothbrush mustache future? Why, the black-masked “antifa” militia and their Black Bloc twin, naturally.

Ready as always, clad in black from head to stormtrooper toe, with their full arsenal of smoke bombs, brass knuckles, pipes, sticks and baseball bats, pepper spray and even shields (to pummel, not protect) proved more than capable of putting emergent neo-Nazis under the knout, both in Berkeley and even up here at McGill.

How did they do it?

With mayhem and mobs, of course. They smashed cameras and sometimes the faces of reporters, chased down old people, executed beat downs on isolated protestors, mauled passersby, in one case threatened a man in a wheelchair, and in general stormed the streets like a wolf pack after a long hunger and a really bad hair day. Anti-fascism is hard thuggish work.

Dropping the irony, that was the ludicrous overview being tentatively offered and implicitly supported by many who really should have known much better. A neo-Nazi and/or white supremacist threat to American democracy exists only in the heads of those who read Marvel Comics for news and think Twitter is a medium for sentient beings.

Antifa are violent fascists.

They masquerade as opposing Nazis to enable them to label all who oppose Antifa as Nazis.

That was the entire purpose of the play that was put on in Charlottesville.

Soros probably paid for both side’s actors.

That's absolutely correct...despicable,*violent*,pigs.Of course the Nazis and the Klan are no angels either but the difference between the two sides is that the anarchists are far more numerous and far more dangerous than the Nazis and Klan of *today*.

Decent Americans laugh at the Nazis and the Klan today because they deserve ridicule *and* because we know they're so utterly powerless.Not so with the anarchists...not at *all*.

They are the 2017 equivalent of the Nazi Sturmabteilung (SA) "Storm Troopers."

It’s time to teach antifa what happens to real fascists that commit terrorism against innocent Americans. I do expect they will be rounded up and given long prison sentences. Antifa’s bit off way more than they could ever chew. They better hope that law enforcement takes care of this, (as I think they surely will) before the American people have to take this into their own hands. That would get really ugly and bloody for antifa and they would be wiped off the face of the earth in very short order.

Better to torch their domiciles while they out running around wearing masks.

Just kidding.

That would be wrong.

I have been watching the Antifa Brwn Shirt riots for sometime now and many of the stories of hinted to the fact that there were military/police observer posts filming everything that was happening. Perhaps there’s a plan to use that video evidence to round them all up in one big sweep.

They should be pretty easy for agents to infiltrate and identify each and every one of these cretins. I can’t wait to see them all face justice.

There is a difference between Bolsheviks and NAZIs that the alt media is not getting either. Bolshevik = Social Justice Warrior. Facists are not anti nationalists like Antifa, Bolsheviks.
