Still seems bonkers to me they made anti-fascists the bad guys.

It tracks that a fascist would present a picture of people who aren’t able-bodied white men and just assume that one should take that as intrinsically negative. It reveals their vile mindset.
It tracks that they're unable to recognize bravery just like they're unable to recognize freedom. Their entire world view is programmed and skewed by the overclass of people who control every aspect of their lives because they rely on brainwashed obedience to maintain that control.
They don't ask questions when reality doesn't line up with whatever they're being sold, just let it trickle down their throats and say thank you, while convincing themselves it must only be their imagination that it tastes a little funny. If there was really anything to worry about, surely somebody they trust would say something.
Bravery is supposed to look like Pete Hegseth criticizing women and trans people in the military while he struggles to do a pull up.
Bravery is not supposed to look like marginalized people refusing to be intimidated into silence by the anti-egalitarian fascists who "joke" about exterminating them.
Freedom is supposed to look like a ruling overclass free of the burden of the laws and regulations that were created to protect us from the overclass. In exchange the people that support the overclass are free to "joke" about genocide without fear of social consequences.
Freedom is not supposed to look like the freedom to stand up to oligarchs for your rights and the rights of others. Including the rights of the morons too dumb to understand who's interests they're looking out for when they willing hand over their own civil rights and liberties to those who claim "democracy is incompatible with freedom."
An old woman in a wheelchair stands up to ICE and you're implying she's a loser?
That woman has more courage in her pinkie toe than you have in your balls you little shit
There's a guy I know who follows Asmongold and his moron takes. He came out for a group event.
Super scrawny guy who hides behind his computer and was terrified to walk to his car alone. Blocked him after he mocked protesters.
He's the image I have of every one of those cucks who lick police boot.
Antifa has leaders?! Since when?
Also anyone who's against antifa, is fascist. By definition.
I mean, there's a picture of stalin above your comment calling him a member of antifa council.
Some mixed signals there.
He did fight against the fascists during the second world war. But yeah, mixed signals, for sure.
Let's say country A is imperialist with a bit of fascism sprinkled on top. County B is openly fascist, but has a lot of resources and poses a threat to country B.
If country A invades, occupies, and crushes country B, is country A inherently anti-fascist? It did fight the fascists.
I fail to see how that relates to what I said. I said anyone opposed to antifa is fascist by definition. The reverse isn’t automatically true.
A cow is an animal, not all animals are cows.
Also I never said that I supported Stalin in anything
Anybody who's against North Korea is against democracy. Anybody who's against nazis is against socialism.
Antifa isn't a country, party or group though. It's a loose movement.
A similar thing would be environmental activist (or enva for short). Sure, you could call yourself environmental activist while adocating against the environment, but that wouldn't mean that environmental activism is bad for the environment, it would mean that you aren't actually an environmental activist..
Just to be clear, your implication is that Antifa isn't actually anti-fascist, but is fascist themselves?
Do you realize how hard it would be for antifa, a decentralized concept that people self identify as, to band together to oppress everyone in favor of nationalism? And what nation would they be oppressing for?
If you are correct, and I want you be clear that you aren't and you're dumb, but if you are correct then I'm fucking impressed by antifa more than ever.
I think they’re just saying names aren’t always accurate, given the North Korea -> democracy (Democratic People’s Republic of Korea) and Nazi -> socialism (National Socialist) examples.
Antifa is great but sweeping statements based only on a name like the one they’re responding to are definitely not accurate
This assumes that antifa is an organization of some sort. If you think of antifa as an identity or aspiration the statement makes sense.
Edit misspell
Felsiq is right on the money - it's a braindead argument regardless of how you feel about antifa.
I don't know why people itt keep saying that "it's not an organization" somehow absolves it of any misdirection regarding its name.
I suppose a more direct comparison is "if you're anti-pro-life, you're anti-life."
I'll take crap takes for 500.
Holy shit. That is awesome. Where do I sign up for Antifa?
Can I be an anti fascist with out being an Antifa member?
Nope, because antifa means anti-fascist. Are you a fascist? No? Then you're antifa. That easy.
Yes you can! We desperately need to organize along anti fascist lines without the baggage of the mentally ill maximalist fake left who describe themselves as antifa.
Nice try, CIA. It’s not that easy to divide the left anymore.
hahahah this is the dopest lineup I've ever seen.
I want to see this band, I want to watch those models, I want to fund this army
Uh ya. Turns out individuals who had to overcome social, economical, and political oppression seem to be POC, disabled, queer, or a women. They don't see any able bodied white Christan men at the front and freak out. It's because they think we'll treat the way they treat everyone else. So Ya conservatives just think everyone is as evil as they are
Standing up for the weak? That’s bad now?
John Antifa, Destroyer of Faschists.
And his sidekicks, Purple Mohawk and Kid Helmet in Wheels.
Kid Helmet?
That's the one, the only, Freak the Mighty.
Dumbasses are unable to understand that antifa is a nationwide movement not a centralized organization.
No, you have to be against fascism. If you are neutral you would not be antifa
Inaction is the sum of it though. Neutrality is benign, but you should probably remove it anyways, right. They aren't holding up their end of the bargain in a society, which is unfortunately taking a side on things. Not being at the table does not make them complicit by and large, but it allows it to happen.
They also allow good things to happen that they don't necessarily agree with, because they stand aside and grumble to themselves and their tiny circle if not outright ignoring it. It doesn't mean they should not be involved but humanity as a whole has a pact mentality, whereas it's someone else problem, where are we going today?
I don't think there is a "right" answer. They allow good things to happen too, are they responsible for that as well, or just the bad things that happen? Bystanders are simply a fact of life, it's the doers who bear the responsibility. Look at mob mentality as an example.
I'm picking the one in the helmet for my team of hardened badasses. Anyone who owns a helmet is probably ready to go the distance.
Strange guardians of the galaxy vibes from the 3 in the front. Drax, starlord, and rocket.
I guess they prefer the orange turd that would be bested by a 10 years old in all fields but bullshitting.
Ive known some precocious young ones who could give him a run for his money
4 years ago, I was at a beach party, and stepped down to the water to be downwind of the group for a smoke. My best friends 6 year old walks up to me and asks "can I have a smoke?"
I tell him no way, hes way too young for such a bad habit. "But my parents let me smoke, all the time"
"Yeah right, they dont even smoke anymore (quit before his older sister was born)
"When we went to Russia. They let me smoke there. Everybody smokes there. Id have one after the sauna, and one after dinner each night."
It was true. They had just got back from russia, a couple months ago. (They were actually there visiting the wife's parents when the war broke out. Whole family managed to escape though, to a relatives home in Bulgaria, and her mom was in the process of emigrating to the US, although I think thats on hold because shes not sure Trumps America is better than Putins russia)
I knew the grandparents smoked, and dont know enough about Russian culture, so it might be plausible. I know the kids had been offered a shot of vodka, and had spit it out.
I ended up reiterating he was way too young for such a gross habit, and we went back up to the party. When I told his parents, they had a laugh about it. He would sit around after dinner / sauna with the men, and have a candy cigarette while they all smoked. She also added hed gotten way better at lying over that month.
