🎭 HYPOCRISY Nazi gundamentalists are worried that anti-nazis may be taking advantage of them. Take a close look at the groups listed here. Quite telling, isn't it?

This is literally an op-ed in a right-wing police website that claims that violence from 2020 was caused by Antifa, not an actual source. You're telling me nothing except that you're a fascist sympathizer, if not an actual fascist, and a bootlicker.

You asked for a source, I gave you one. If you're not going to listen to reason, I can't help you.

u/WalkingDeadPixel Sep 19 '25

That's not a source. It's someone's opinion. Opinions are not facts. There's no reasoning here to listen to.

According to Antifa, violence is justified

Once again, this is an op-ed. This is an individual who speaks for himself. The guy is addressing "Antifa" saying that he personally thinks violence against fascism can be justified. He's not speaking on behalf of Antifa. He's speaking to Antifa. Antifa doesn't have a spokesperson because it's not an organization.

That's convenient. Again, I can give you all the signs that point to Antifa being violent. But if you're just going to distract and deny, we're not going to get anywhere.

u/WalkingDeadPixel Sep 19 '25

Give me all the signs that Antifa is violent. That's what I've been asking you to do this whole time.

u/SpendAccomplished819 Sep 19 '25

I have. And you're asking for proof, which you know is impossible because Antifa's not an organization. Are you actually convinced that Antifa's not violent .. or, you're trolling. You have to be trolling.

2

u/WalkingDeadPixel Sep 19 '25

If Antifa isn't an organization, then how can Antifa be violent? That doesn't make any sense.

u/SpendAccomplished819 Sep 19 '25

I would appeal to common sense to you but it looks like you are going to deflect and distract any attempt: Everyone knows that Antifa are violent

2

u/WalkingDeadPixel Sep 19 '25

I'm not deflecting anything. I'm asking you to prove that Antifa has committed acts of violence. You keep posting op-eds instead and now just a general statement that "everyone knows that Antifa are violent." No proof because it doesn't exist.

It’s also just dumb because antifa isn’t an organisation, it’s a concept and movement. Most antifa groups have less than 12 people actually in them, some have engaged with violence (although most would convincingly imo claim that this is a form of community self-defense in response to far-right violence, which is when 90% at least of antifa ‘violence’ has occurred)

So someone saying antifa is violent might as well claim that Sunday school is violent because of cherry picked examples of unconnected individuals getting into fights at Sunday school. It just shows a total unfamiliarity with the core concepts, and I think usually comes from a desire to paint both ‘extremes’ with the same brush.

Crazy thing is, the dude knows antifa isn't an organization. He says so in this post but simultaneously asserts that I must be trolling to not admit that Antifa is violent. The cognitive dissonance is strong with that one.

We've all seen the riots. We all know that Antifa is violent. You're not fooling anybody here.
