Personally, I think that the neo Nazis and the KKK are subhuman scum, but so is Antifa. You will never see me defend neo Nazi or KKK violence, so why do people on the left feel they should defend Antifa?

Can't we all agree that violence is never the answer to speech?

Here is a video that CNN put out about Antifa....

Unmasking the leftist Antifa movement: Activists seek peace through violence - CNN
Antifa has initiated the violence every single time, it is all documented on video.

I agree with you, Antifa is no better than the KKK, and other such hate groups.

The mainstream media that brainwashes the general public gives the far left a pass, despite the fact that they're quite possibly the most violent and intolerant of all.

The mainstream media is so obviously biased, feigning outrage and even pretending to cry because the President stated a truth about the Charlottesville violence that wasn't "politically correct": that there is violence and bad people on both sides.

Violence, hatred, riots and intolerance are okay if it's coming from the left, though.

Yep, both Antifa, and BLM are the ones initiating the violence. They are as bad, or worse than the KKK, or neo Nazis but the Media, the Left and the Democrats won't tell you that. Both Antifa, and BLM want Totalitarian Communism, or Violent Anarchy depending on what you read from THEM.

The Media needs violence to sell their advertising. I would not be surprised if they somehow finance many of these groups to create the news. Turn on the camera and the violence ramps up.

I see Antifa as nearly the Communist movement. The term Communist is today negative much like Nazi so they've adapted.

They are all a bunch of low life anarchist who don't represent 98% of Americans. We're letting 2% drive the narrative.

If the country falls it is because the media turned into propaganda machine, the greatest tragedy to befall our nation.


The media molds and shapes the opinion of the mindless hordes that tune in like the mesmerized fools they are.

The hordes are corraled like cattle, now the cattle are being separated into sub groups, antifa, nazis, kkk, socialists, etc, etc, etc. Then the sub groups will be pitted against each other.

The nation has already been destroyed. The media destroyed it for their masters.

The media killed Heather Heyert, the media killed the cops, if you don't believe it, the media has killed your brain.

Wow. CNN (and Antifa) have completely lost it.

They're the ones calling for more violence.

Yes, this is why the msm went ballistic when Trump correctly said that both side were responsible for the violence, the msm are doing everything they can to push the false narrative that the violence is coming from the right.

It's hard to believe that people even watch the msm anymore, they are so obviously nothing more than propaganda arms of the establishment.

I don't buy it. This antifa people are responding to supremacy. They are responding to a group who seeks to subjugate women, eliminate minorities (like kill them all), and rule. That is what the KKK is all about. That's what all these people are about. That you guys take issue with a rage response is mind numbing. It's the only possible outcome given our history.

Violent fascist racists like ANTIFA always justify their violence. They are worse than the KKK losers who at least are in retreat.

If I didn't know any better, I would think you were talking about Islamists.

Funny, I don't remember Antifa taking any stands against them.


A rage response is justified?

History is history. We are living in the 21st century.
