The tragic events in Charlottesville, VA last week provided a flash point for the nation to have a discussion that weve been putting off for too long. The past few years of extremist politics have turned fringe ideas into mainstream ones, with Antifa communists and Alt Right Nazis getting plenty of the attention they crave, but dont deserve.
But why is this happening?
Antifa activists have been gathering steam for some time now, with a major incident that brought them into the public eye being the riots at Berkeley over the appearance of Milo Yiannopoulos, himself a figure who was lionized by Alt Right activists in previous years. Antifa communists also gained attention in their assault of white supremacist Richard Spencer, an attention craving lunatic who was famously punched while giving an interview on the streets in Washington D.C. Antifa has successfully popularized the concept that Nazis should be punched, since their ideology leads to violence. But never mind that history has shown that fascists movements have never even approached the body count of communist regimes in their morbid tally of human sacrifices on the altar of the omnipotent state.

Nazis and Communists naturally hate each other. Fighting over the same turf.

The Progressive followers of Hitler became nazis, and those of Stalin communists. The two branches of Progressivism had a parting of the ways in WW2, but they are basically the same species of rodent.
This piece is spot on—but misses one obvious thing about the term Nazi—it is a contraction of National Socialist!
I think the Communists are seeing the success of anarchists and joining in the super violence. Previously those two did not get along so well.
Ask Milo Yiannopoulos.
A pox on both their houses.
I don’t like anything about NAZIs. I don’t like that they call themselves right. They aren’t. They are for a controlling all powerful government. I don’t like that they promote Aryan people. Promoting one group over another is as bad as the left with their black, LBGT, women, Hispanic groups. Aryan is just another group. To promote Aryan is to justify the existence of the other groups.
I am for Americans and our constitution and limited government and free markets. NAZIs think some Americans are better than others and they are not really for our constitution and they want to take over the world.
The left is also not for the constitution. They don’t like free speech or free assembly or association. And they don’t like the right to life or the 2nd amendment or the electoral college.
So its easy to be against both. Neither are very American. Both are hate groups. And both dislike the constitution. I like the Tea-Party.
And yet, there was a torchlit rally with Nazi flags and people chanting about Jews
Considering that they both do the bidding of the same masters, of course you can reject both at the same time.
Soros and his Deep State government cronies fund both sides.
Everyone knows Soros funds Antifa, but don’t forget that Soros got his start and his first riches working with the REAL Nazis.
If I could rule this country by fiat I would,if I allowed rallies of fringe groups like Nazis and anarchists to demonstrate at all,mobilize a massive police contingent to ensure that *nobody*,rally organizers or counter-demonstrators,could get out of line.
What we saw in Charlottesville (at least among the organizers of the two groups) was the scum of American society...as Trump has correctly suggested.
Just curious...are you willing to acknowledge that Nazis and Klan members are outnumbered by a factor of at least 10 by Maoist anarchists (funded by Soros,et al) in this country?

Who says there were any right wingers there? Who gets to define that? I'm so sick of all of us playing the MSM's game.
The political terms right and left have essential become meaningless.
I make the distinction to be between Americans and Totalitarians.
“Is Antifa anti first amendment?”
Anything they disagree with is “hate speech”.
Their right of free speech, however, does not end at the tip of your nose or the top of your head.
Some spell the name as AntiFA as an allusion to that.
The difference between the Swastika Panties brigade and the Red Diaper Crybaby brigade is essentially the difference between McDonald`s and Burger King. Both selling the same old meat.
The full name of the Hitler’s Nazi party is The National Socialist German Workers’ Party.
When some guy says he’s alt right Nazi...pull out the 1932 political platform for the Nazi Party. Read it off. Thirty-odd political stances. There might be two to fit into this guy’s perception of the Nazis themselves....the rest are all socialist agenda stuff. Ask the guy if he’s a socialist and he’ll freak out...no, no...will be the response.
Well...Nazis are socialists, and these idiots just went and took the brand-name to fit some agenda without researching the whole platform thing. You can’t be alt-right, and Nazi....without being socialist.
