Apparently AntiFa are simply old school Communists.

The other day 2ndDivisionVet posted a picture of an AntiFa flag that looked like it came from the 1930s. I asked him if that image was from the 1930s, but he didn't know.

Antifa operatives are the modern communist/anarchist terrorist brown shirts with their own Ernst Rohm, George Soros.

Don't know if you're old enough to remember them but I am.familiarize (or *re* familiarize) yourself with Mao's "Red Guards" of the 1960's (and 70's IIRC).

Carbon copy...right down to the destruction of old monuments.

They were the Communists with whom the NSDAP "brownshirts" were fighting. The Nazi brownshirts won these conflicts with them, but the Communists were just as bad as the Nazis who beat them back in the 1930s.

Yes they are. Glad someone else figured that out.

I've read about them and seen pictures. Yes, they are right out of the same playbook.

The problem for them is something they don't understand about our culture. Those tactics they employ may work in Europe, with it's long history of domination by an Aristocracy, and they may work in China for the same reason.

America is different. Firstly, we are heavily armed. Secondly, we don't like being pushed around and are not accustomed to tolerating it for very long.

They are going to discover that they have opened up an entirely different can of worms in this culture.

I did not know that. Thanks for informing me about that.

It didn't end well for Rohm.
A little OT but one of my best friends, a 70 year old Viet Nam veteran is a grand nephew of Ernst Rohm. It doesn't come up that much.

Antifa, BLM and the rest of the Left are nothing more than Communists.

It's sad, how willfully ignorant most people are. I recently had an argument with my in-laws over the nature of "Antifa". I used some of the same old photos to drive my point home - and they finally admitted that the media *might* be misrepresenting these new thugs just a bit. Hell, Antifa copied their entire media package from the Commies of yore. Red and black (anarcho-communist) banners and all. And yes, technically their history *is* "anti-fascist", but only because said fascists were trying to stake a claim on the same socialist territory as the Commies.

Hitler had one thing right: the people really do not think. They sure as Hell don't learn from past mistakes, either.

Now you figure that out?
They’re no different from the Spartacists that fought the Freicorps after WWI.
Well, they are not as competent and lack the leavening of vets the Spartacists had, but you get the idea.

And this image shows that they really are the ideological descendants of the people who have murdered a 100 million people in the 20th century.

Now if we just had a broadcast network where we could transmit these images to the public so as to better inform them, we might be able to do some real good with this information.
