Antifa ARE the fascists. They use violence, and destruction to intimidate. That's fascist. So is BLM.
Uhhh ... no.
Opposition to Fascism is not defined in that way, any more than you would be a mugger if you fought back when a mugger attacked you. You could defend yourself and the other would still be the mugger.

They are not anti fascist. They use violence, and destruction to intimidate. That's fascist. Just like BLM. Fascists. They are against anyone that doesn't share their liberal/progressive hateful views.
Never had cable but did check their website occasionally for breaking news. Stopped even doing that after a year of their Malaysian airliner crash nonsense: "Did it go into a black hole? Did a UFO kidnap it?"
It's a Dem party propaganda apparatus now. I do get a kick out of their silly 'journalists' like Jim "Ted Baxter" Acosta at the White House press briefings saying a poem was official immigration policy. There is another Jim whose name I can never remember who recently included the Charlottesville protests with the European terrorist events of the past several years. Wolf Blitzer clearly has dementia because he said the Barcelona terrorists must have copied the schizo in the car running over the woman in Charlottesville.
Time to sell off CNN and clean house. Jeff Zucker has destroyed the brand.

He's clearly talking about the times when the antifa people initiated the violence in the first place. Like at Berkeley.
If you physically attack someone that you think looks like they might be a mugger, what does that make you?

Then don't call them that. Don't allow them to claim the title of Antifa. Use it for yourself or don't use it at all.
From my experience liberal/progressive thinkers are not hateful. True liberals have a lot of empathy, in fact it is one of the 'rights' biggest criticisms of the 'left'. They care about the ecology, they care about the indigent, they care about the underclass workers. They care too much.
This is why we used to call them 'tree-huggers' and other such derisive terms.
I listen to CNN at work on my iPhone. I have always viewed them as the McDonald's of news networks, really just entertainment for me actually and something more neutral I can listen to that doesn't upset co-workers. What annoys me about CNN is there obsession with saying 'breaking news', even when the news is already a few hours old. That gets old real fast. And oh yes, they hyper-sensationalize everything, which is also annoying. Other than that, they offer accurate info and differences of opinion which keeps me listening.
I watch anything BUt Faux news. They are the apologists for this sorry right wing nut job President. Anyone believing a word this man, who is also a chronic Liar, says also needs psychological help.
The OP brought it up first, I was just riffing on him/her.
Yes, I'm anti-facist. You're not?
think people just throwing words -with out understanding the full agenda behind things -
