Antifa the Terrorist Organization

[Cloud_Strife]

Is OT an actual Antifa cell now?

Are you feeling threatened by the market place of ideas?

 

[Farm Boy]

Big enough handicap and we can rock anything, I suppose.

 

[Lexicus]

EDIT: Plus the fact that they haven't killed anyone yet is more due to their own incompetence rather than from a lack of trying. They just tried, and failed, to bomb an ICE facility. One doesn't try to bomb a facility without at least the expectation that some people will die.

Those fine folks at ICE have it coming.

So we're advocating terrorism on CFC now?

 

[Manfred Belheim]

Damn. Another one feeling threatened by the free marketplace of ideas. Bomb him!

Peaceful protests alone are unlikely to get the concentration camps closed.

A lot of kvetching from the dude who can't tolerate antifa yet is willing to allow literal neo nazis to march.

I posit that you feel more threatened by the former than the latter.

Disposing of people who commit crimes against humanity is not terrorism. edit: and for the record I'm not advocating it. Less dramatic resistance against ICE has accomplished far more than violence against ICE agents could.

 

[brennan]

A genuine nazi could not have put it better. Violence is an acceptable fallback if people don't listen to you.

 

[Senethro]

I don't think it was the nazis who were well known for being violently opposed to concentration camps...

There may be some crossed wires here.

Also, why are so many people utterly unconcerned by state violence when its their own state or an allied state?

Well yeah of course I do, because they're more dangerous.

Also you don't seem to know what "tolerate" means.

 

[Cloud_Strife]

You seriously think antifa is more dangerous than neo nazis?

 

[Lexicus]

You seriously think antifa is more dangerous than neo nazis?

To be fair, the former probably are more dangerous to him than the latter are, for, uh...obvious reasons.

I would suggest we all play a round of "who goes Nazi?" but after this statement it wouldn't be much fun.

So yeah, Antifa are definitely terrorists, just incompetent ones.

Don't know much about the history of terrorism then. There's a whole thing where you bomb empty buildings, specifically, on purpose, because you aren't murderers.

Neo Nazis and their enablers symbiotically support each other, the former commit the acts the latter are too scared to do whilst the latter defend the former and their rights.

 

[Manfred Belheim]

An individual antifa (antifum?) most likely isn't more dangerous than an individual neo nazi. The latter is worse. But as a group yes. They're more numerous and more tolerated and apt to constantly advocate for violence and extremism. Definitely more dangerous.

Yes you continue to build up your delusional worldview, all the while advocating for more and more violence and extremism in opposition to it. Not dangerous at all, no sir.

 

[Cloud_Strife]

How do you square that with the fact that neo nazis have actually killed people?

Or does that not even enter your mind?

 

[Manfred Belheim]

Quite readily. I also think Antifa are more dangerous to society than serial killers. And those guys have killed loads of people.

 

[Lexicus]

Or does that not even enter your mind?

Don't be silly, everything remotely positive anyone says about Antifa is part of the pinko-commie hive-collective but those acts of murderous terrorism are just Isolated Incidents perpetrated by Psychologically Troubled Lone Wolves and have Nothing To Do With Politics.

 

[Manfred Belheim]

Don't be silly. There are lots of things/people/animals/tsunamis that have killed people, but which are and never will be any sort of danger to society as a whole. Surely you're not denying this?

"X has killed people" is not an argument for how dangerous X is on any sort of meaningful societal scale.
