Moderator Edit: Flamebait/Insult What I stated was fact all you stated is that they are a loose coalition which does not contradict the facts i stated
because he was understandably upset about the centuries of anti-Jewish porgrams and policies in tact throughout Europe by white Christians.
um...white Christians were attacking mostly white Jews. it was racial fratracide. skin color was irrelevent to the issue
i know they were white Jews, but unfortunately, most European Christians never viewed Jews as white with a Jewish culture/faith. They viewed them as half-breeds of Asiatic background. Hitler used those lines. The tzars clearly didn't give the Jews in their country a chance to thrive.
race has nothing to do with this. its all about religion. you're just hyper-focused on race, due to some unknown crazy reason
Fine, even if it was just the religious hate, it was not justified. I looked up the history of Jews in Russia prior to the revolution and it was hell. They were forced to live in the Pale of Settlement. They were denied many rights. I can't blame the Jewish rage against their Russian Christian tzars.
Anti-fa is a leftist, lawless, violent, and anti-American organization. Eventually they'll go too far and get crushed like a bug.
Some good points in your OP, and it's crucial to understand why the duopoly (the Republicrat party) DOES in fact love Antifa, or as I call them, the AltLefTaliban. The roots of this American Taliban are in OWS (Occupy Wall Street), and this was (not unlike the current fascists masquerading behind mom's ski mask) an anti-establishment group as well, but far MORE dangerous to the duopoly than the radicalized AltLefTaliban precisely because it was non-violent. OWS crapped on cop cars and the like, but many were buzzed out drug addicts, people with mental health issues, aging or youthful wannabe hippies, passive anarchists, aimless/homeless wanderers and the like - essentially harmless. But their determination and (mostly) pacifist behavior struck a deep national chord, and was channeled into the Bernie Sanders phenomenon, as Sanders saw how desperate the young/old, black/white, urban/rural citizenry were and are. And as you know, corrupt establishment Democrats - aided by corrupt corporate mainstream media - ignored and then destroyed Sanders, and with him, a once in lifetime candidate, and the first authentic social democrat since FDR. The left was not happy, and war was declared on the establishment Democrats who have no more real interest if the left than they do in minorities OTHER than to dupe them into voting against their own self-interest by supporting wretched corporate types like the superficially charming corporatist Obama, or the genuinely hideous Hitlery Clinton. The left told the DemocRats to eff off, and the DemocRats responded "We can win without you sexist BernieBros.!" Ooooooops. The trouble was that women - lots and lots of them, mostly young - didn't trust or like Clinton, so they bailed along with the rest of the left, and Clinton is now history. So the good news for the left was that the massively corrupt Clinton machine went down hard, but the bad news was that Trump was now president elect. Brimming with guilt, and under pressure to defend their feminist street cred, these former OWSers - many underemployed or unemployed, and some economically cuckolded by girlfriends making bank and less hostile to Hitlery - gravitated to irrational posturing, virtue signaling and violence to PROVE that they, well, to prove that they're idiots... But why do BOTH the majority of DemocRats AND RepubliCants love them, and refuse to denounce them? Because the AltLefTaliban is exactly what they claim to oppose, and they're destroying the very thing they claim to champion: the left and its positive values. If the AltLefTaliban can succeed in destroying the left in the same way the Clintonistas destroyed the DemocRat Party in 2016, then this puts a huge number of voters back into play, and either Trump or a corrupt *law & order* establishment DemocRat like Kamala Harris - Nixon in a pantsuit 2.0 - can maintain the power structure as is, and reassure the oligarchs threatened by social democracy and pacifist leftist values. The AltLefTaliban is the ultimate coalition of useful idiots, doing the duopoly's bidding by delegitimizing the ENTIRE left, and making the world safe for corporate globalism. What's not to love?
The only mic drop is he nailed antifa's stated reason for its existence, to show up before any such thing is allowed to grow. Apparently just knowing that makes me one of 'em, that's how powerful it all is. Woooo.
Antifa are the ultimate abyss gazers, and utterly unwilling to comprehend the damage they're doing. They are the worst thing to happen to the left in nearly 50 years. Infinitely more dangerous and destructive than any tiny, played-out band of goosestepping Nazi dress up boys.
Best deal with them now before they get together with the other serious, real, terrible, awful threat to the Hollywood embedded belief in a hollowed out nothingburger - American Values - BLM, and mount a fascist take-over. You'll need your neo-nazi troops then, backed up by the less forthcoming but still severely distorted and dangerous white nationalists.
Some are; the apologists and some of the logicians. But they're generally MUCH too vain and infantile to comprehend - to have any interest in - the larger picture. They're burning their OWN world down. Oh - and there are all kinds of anarchists; these *ssholes just represent the most destructive kind.
The ideologies that Antifa supposedly represents - the positive ones - are being swallowed up by their infantile aggression. Those positive ideologies are what they're threatening and destroying, and these twerps will be crushed like the pajama warriors they are if the patient right - the vast majority of whom despise Nazis & the like, and who don't want them shoulder to shoulder - decides enough is enough. BLM's a HNF, but as with Antifa, they're outnumbered, and likely outgunned, in their case by conservative blacks. Antifa is worse than useless to EVERYTHING they claim to uphold; they're a cancer. But treatable.
I agree. I just think the overwhelming cluster of angry Jews in the bolsheviks gave way (prior to Stalin's great purge of them) to a lot of brutal murders of ethnic Russians, Ukrainians, and Christians for that reason. While Trotsky didn't care much for his Jewish heritage as he apparently denied his father a Jewish funeral, I do think anti-Christian/Russia sentiment was ripe with the leading bolsheviks. Stalin, on the other hand, hated the world and was a full on dictator. I look at the bolsheviks are being led by atheist Jews who did want some sort of classless world, but not before paying back their Russian/Christian overlords for centuries of persecution.
The sad thing is, so many leftists like you fail to realize that Trump is trying to preserve democracy and our way of life. He hasn't done anything illegal - he won by the will of the masses. He won 2700/3100 counties in the country. There is ZERO difference between antifa and the bolshevik scum in ideology and hate. The same goes with the Nazis and KKK who are both terror groups, as is antifa.
One lone wolf terror attack is apparently enough for you to condemn every Trump supporter, were as countless acts of violence by organized leftist mobs is something you overlook. How predictable.
