An Antifa member with a long history of posting far-left extremist content online has been arrested and charged with the shooting of an anti-vaxxer in Olympia, Wash.

Benjamin Anthony Varela, 36, of Olympia, was arrested on Thursday and charged with first-degree assault while armed with a deadly weapon.

In 2018, he wrote, “9/11 was good because the US is a Nazi state so we deserved it.”

It’s so weird that Antifa is pro government vaccine mandates. Do they even know what fascism is?

Yes they know what fascism is. You do know the origin of antifa, right? They were the communist party thugs set by the communists in Germany prior to WWII. That were anti the fascist party. That's where the name anti-fa came from. Hitler's fascist thugs were more powerful in the end and Hitler prevailed and you know the rest.

Today they are still communist thugs and they are still fighting to overthrow the country. And who would suppose they answer to? That's why they are pro government vaccine mandates. They are by their very nature, anarchists (mostly peaceful of course ). Mandates are right up their alley!

And be aware of them - they can get very 'mostly peaceful'! They were extremely 'mostly peaceful' in Germany, pre-war.

No central leadership within the Antifa movement.

The guy shot was affiliated with Proud Boys and that alone was more likely the reason for the shoot.

antifa is a loose fitting description, it does include anarchists but this anarchist is the extreme end of the group

Everyone is tired of these lame excuses for these cowardly leftist foot soldiers. If the proud boys didn't have a leader, and someone excused violence from them by saying "there is no central leadership in the proud boys", you would mock and ridicule that person for making such a lame excuse... And rightfully so.



And how exactly would you know that pAntifa doesn't have a leader? Don't you think it's possible that they don't bother to tell anyone who their leader is? They are a bunch of cowards, so it stands to reason that their leader is too scared to actually make him/herself known to the public. Whatever the case may be, pAntifa is certainly more than just an idea, since they have murdered at least 2 people now, probably more. Using violence to push an ideology is reprehensible and inexcusable, yet lefties time and time again make excuse for these losers.
