How the Violent Hard-Left “Antifa” Movement Copies Communists in Weimar Republic Germany

Police across the United States are being forced to deal with a new hard-Left, communist-derived movement organized under the code word “Antifa,” standing for “Anti-Fascist.”

The violent, confrontational nature of Antifa anarchists presents a challenge to U.S. law enforcement that is unprecedented; they reject the free speech principles upon which civil discourse depends, while seeking to achieve the demise of the U.S. Constitution, as it holds as illegitimate any compromise with their communist worldview.

On June 12, 2017, the New Jersey Department of Homeland Security and Preparedness officially declared Antifa to be a terrorist group, explaining the following: “Anti-fascist groups, or ‘Antifa,’ are a subset of the anarchist movement and focus on issues involving racism, sexism, and anti-Semitism, as well as other perceived injustices.” The New Jersey DHS stressed that the Antifa movement is opposed to “fascism, racism, and law enforcement,” while targeting in particular far-right extremists, including perceived white supremacists.

Today, the Antifa movement that originally formed in Germany in the 1980s has taken root in the United States, with the goal of rubbing raw social and racial class tensions in order to delegitimize the U.S. Constitution, bring down the Trump administration, and cause the political chaos the Antifa movement believes will lead to the creation of a communist state here in the U.S.A.

Then why isn’t he? Perhaps it’s easier to talk about than the 70 Billion dollars of taxpayer bailouts for insurers. While we are talking, what is going on? Think about never letting a crisis go to waste.
In the meantime, there are new documentaries on Benghazi and Comey. No one is talking about that while Bosnian city council mrmembers get their #ISIS on.
Overwhelm the system #soroscash is rolling out to the alt-right and the curl-left. Now we move on with purpose.. #repealToday. #congressDoyourJob

Frankly, I am not sure whether they are more into the Nazi formula or the Communist formula. The differences between the Jacobins, Bolsheviks & Nazis, methinks, are more dependent upon the particular personalities that stepped into the particular chaotic moment, than any radical difference in the ideological propaganda, offered in justification.

They like those we mistakenly call American "Liberals," all suffer from a common compulsion for uniformity. In this they are the exact opposite to the Old South.

Compulsion For Uniformity.

No it hasn’t. The DOJ begins announcing the arrests of antifa members and watch them riot, giving more public pressure to designate them as a terrorist organization.

Wishful thinking...this may have been the original plan but the C'ville fiasco has changed the dynamic. The left has their bloody shirt and they're going to wave it.

They can wave it all they want. As more of their followers like Tim Kaine’s son appear in court for their felony trials it will become more apparent to law abiding people that the democrat party has an anger issue.
