On Saturday afternoon, shortly before her camera captured a car plowing through left-wing activists in Charlottesville, killing one and injuring more than a dozen others, Faith Goldy warned that the left was spinning out of control.
“Hundreds and hundreds of antifa, weird BLM, idiots dressed like clowns,” said Goldy, a reporter for the Canadian alt-right news site The Rebel. “This is okay, as long as you’re not the alt-right. The alt-right wasn’t allowed to demonstrate any show of force.”
As if on cue, activists began chanting “black lives matter” in the background of Goldy’s shot.
“Chant BLM, and all of a sudden the cops don’t care!” she said. “Where are the riot police now?”
Goldy’s report, which transformed into police evidence after James Alex Fields Jr. allegedly plowed his car into counterprotesters, was representative of a theme that had risen from far-right media to the mainstream since President Trump’s inauguration. The growth of “antifa,” a loose and often ad hoc network of left-wing “antifascist” groups, has been covered as a rising danger to law and order, a justification for alt-right organizations to organize armed rallies — and for ordinary Americans to arm themselves, too.
The “antifa” concept has existed for almost as long as fascism itself, but in the wake of Trump’s victory, organizers claimed to be seeing an influx of new energy and new recruits. In the lead-up to Inauguration Day, conservative undercover sting artist James O’Keefe released video of D.C. antifascist organizers plotting Jan. 20 disruptions. Even as they faced questions from law enforcement, antifa allies used “black bloc” tactics to rage across the area just outside of the inaugural parade, donning masks, smashing windows and burning cars.

Not fear. Hope. They wanted the violence to happen because they knew Antifa had bigger #’s.
Violent left? Who ever heard of that?
If George Soros had not paid for antifa to counter protest and the white supremacist rally had just marched peacefully and then just disappeared there probably wouldn’t have been any problems.
Why would they condemn them? They share a common cause. Antifa and BLM have been conducting violent 'protests' for over a year and they've been cheered on by the media every step of the way.
One of the most important propaganda efforts underway is to tie americanism to racism. They are going to set up more photo-op events like this to make their point.
Don’t erase peoples history and these kind of things won’t happen.
“If George Soros had not paid for antifa to counter protest and the white supremacist rally had just marched peacefully and then just disappeared there probably wouldn’t have been any problems.”
Was this really a white supremacist rally? I’m hearing conflicting things here and elsewhere. Like it was really just a protest of the confederate statues being removed from the city, but maybe there was a kkk group in attendance. So the media identified it as a kkk rally.
Does anyone know the truth?
Anitfa ARE the fascists.
They want to intimidate everyone else to submit to their point of view.
Submit or Die
Has a familiar ring to it..........
You’re not the only one confused. “White supremacist” now seems to be a catch-all slur for anybody defending Western Civilization; the left and MSM have morphed the words the same way they morphed “fascist.” The phrase no longer refers to skinheads, Aryan Nation, and the KKK, but to anybody who is not virulently anti-American, pro-communist or pro-anarchist.
Wow!!! Trump fades...not at all. Getting stronger with each passing day. Stock market up 150+ points this very minute, and thanks to Democrat, Governor Terry McAuliffe and the Mayor of Charlottesville, Virginia, their planned and coordinated riot turned nasty, the police ran away and Charlottesville no longer forever, has a pristine tourist trade!!!
Ya done real good McAullife and your Democrat low life buttheads. Murder and Blood on the hands of the Governor and his mob of extreme right wing and left wing nutcases. IT TAKES TWO TO TANGO, TERRY, and it takes two to kill. Both sides killers, both sides guilty. Ya done it Terry!!!
Be super, real, proud Terry, Satan the Devil awaits you down the road. No real Americans in the Governor’s mansion in Virginia, and no real Americans reside in Charlottesville after the slaughter supported and brought forth by McAullife & company!!! Virginia voters you should all hand your heads in shame and sorrow.
Yes, they are trying box in everyone who resists their agenda as racist.
Support for historical monuments, traditional values, patriotism, pride in America and our accomplishments will not be tolerated. It’s racist.
Condemn?!!!! They're complicit!
“He who controls the past controls the future. He who controls the present controls the past.” George Orwell, 1984.
Virginia has been overrun with northeastern liberals and illegal aliens.
Northern Virginia out votes the rest of Virginia in statewide races as a result.
Virginians did not vote for Clinton’s Bag Man to be Governor, liberal transplants did.
Charlottesville was a set-up.
Paint everyone who defends traditional values and historical monuments as white supremacists and racists.
This will be used to purge the Confederate monuments.
Something else will be manufactured to purge the statues of Madison, Jefferson, Washington, Monroe, Wythe, Henry Lee III
Fear not....Millions of Americans are aware of the deadly, cruel, hateful game afoot by McAuliffe and his Democrat goons and lock-steppers in Charlottesville, etc.!!! The truth always opts, sooner or later. POTUS, Trump prevails as he always does.
Can’t trust the lamestreet media for sure.
Go Faith Goldy! She is one of ours here in Canada from the Rebel Media. Rebel media has been all over what exactly ANTIFA is about worldwide.
I noticed yesterday there are several black who are on Go Fund Me pages asking for donations because they were “attacked by white supremacists.” They were shown in pictures bleeding from their heads.
I don’t trust one word of the narrative from any source that calls the event a “White Nationalist event”. It was not. There was only a handful of those guys there.
