Opinion of Antifas?

 Huge freedom fighters, obviously.

Depends on the context. If they fight actual nazis, as sometimes in Germany, then good for them. If they just whine about right-wingers/non-Commies in general, as in most instances, then I generally side with the right-wingers.

As a right-winger, I am obviously not a fan of far-left thugs who use violence to try to silence anyone who dares to object in the slightest to the leftist agenda.

In their eyes, pretty much everyone who isn't left-wing is a ''Nazi''.

Can get overdramatic at times, but their hearts are in the right place. FFs.

Aren't you, err, literally a fascist though?

[The Last Northerner]

Are they the youth branch of the greens or social democrats?

Horrible, but even a broken clock is right twice a day. It also happens that one of those times was this past weekend in Chicago.

Agree with this. There's an Antifa group in our city which coordinates charity events outside of protesting to raise money for MSF, Red Cross, human rights activist groups, and other causes. When I think of Antifa, that's basically who comes to mind, and they are huge FFs. On the other hand, there's a group of left-wing anarchists who show up to every protest with no real agenda in mind other than getting on TV and screaming at people. They call themselves Antifa, but don't actually fight prejudice or fascism in any meaningful way.

In Polish there is popular phrase "Antifa łowcy HIVa" what can be translated as "Antifa catchers of the HIV" but I guess hatred against them is kinda stupid in country where we have almost no antifa, SHARPs, leftie skinheads etc.



General HP, probably one of the most retarded quasi-political group.

[Zioneer]

Scum.

That sounds like something a fascist would say...

I'm joking of course, but why "scum" instead of "misguided"?

[Goldwater]

The would obviously depend on whether or not they consider me a fascist.

because pingvin is an actual fascist, no joke about it.

Because when you're funded by George Soros, you're not "misguided" anymore.

because pingvin is an actual fascist, doesn't want his country to give up a national border and cultural identity because it's 2016, no joke about it.

FTFY

I'd like to give those folks a free Chilean helicopter ride.

I assume you're talking about the people who attacked that Klan rally in California.

I went to protest a "Klan rally" once myself. It was like two White trashy teenagers with swastika t-shirts and about 50 hipsters trying to beat them up with the cops stepping in to protect them.

The Klan is an irrelevant organization. They don't really need to be fought because they have no power, no influence, and barely any members. I thought even the left acknowledged that at this point and that's why for the most part they have moved on to fighting institutionalized and unintentional racism. Still though, some people on the left like to act out fantasies like they're fighting in the Spanish Civil War. Just like conservatives have fantasies of being Minutemen in the Revolutionary War.

I think the best strategy for fighting the Klan is to just ignore them. Let them have their pathetic rallies with 3 people and everyone can see what a joke they are. Another strategy could be to just talk to them, since a lot of the times they are just stupid teenagers with bad social skills and they've joined some weird political cult because it's the only way they've been able to get friends.

Attacking them with physical violence, with physical violence FIRST, in addition to being obviously morally questionable, is also completely counter productive as it feeds into the victimization narrative of these organizations.
