Antifa is short for anti-fascists. It was one of the groups confronting white supremacist protesters in

Hmmm—normal folks are making a Dem/Antifa/BLM connection.
The Dems don’t like it.
And the normal folks don’t like fools trying to remake the history of America.
Pass the popcorn—this is going to get good.
Another article on ANTIFA:

Regarding the main story, is CNN now admitting that there were ‘many sides’ in Virginia last week?
Straight to the communists, worldwide.
Fellow by the name of Mark Bray is making the rounds on the networks, advocating for the group. The press is giving antifa free advertising and promotion.
being attacked himself made a believer of this guy didn’t it ???
mugging of liberal -> Instant Conservative
Aren’t these the peeps who lost to Franco?
Still don’t understand why they call Spencer’s group “white supremacists”.
That would imply that they believe that whites should rule over all others.
What Spencer clearly said on ABC today is that he advocates a white homeland - didn’t say anything about non-whites living there and him ruling them.
He is clearly a white nationalist, or white separatist if you will.
In what way is this remarkable?
China, Japan, Korea, India and virtually all of Africa are ethnostates that people vehemently defend as “theirs” to the exclusion of all others.
It’s hilarious that when whites advocate this it’s termed “supremacy”.
And what does Antifa terrorize for? Anarchy? Do they do that in Beijing? Pyongyang?
Nah. We all know the answer: what they really want is a hardline, stone faced Communist state where they occupy the top by ruthless, murderous force.
So who’s the real supremaicists?
Knock me over with a feather. Can’t believe CNN did this report, unless it is a type of recruiting video.
This story is running months after ANITFA rioted at the inauguration. Months after they rioted at Milo’s Berkley speech.
The CNN promo for it says, “Their main goal is disrupting neo-nazis and white supremacists, seeking peace through violence.”
PEACE THROUGH VIOLENCE?
And who is a Nazi? Anyone with whom they disagree.
The story also ignored the Soviet symbols used by the group. Ignored they’ve been deemed a terrorist organization by other countries. Ignored they’re mostly an all-white organization (ironically).
Snake Yapper ALERT!
As I mentioned above, I suspect this is CNN’s attempt at making a recruitment video for AntiFa.
Bill Ayers was advisor to President Obama. There’s long been an acceptance of political violence by Democrats. “Any means necessary.”
Democrats no longer debate. They resort to name calling and violence. They live in an information bubble and this echo chamber allows them to believe anyone who disagrees with them is the “second coming of Hitler.”
This is a violent group who, were they on the political left, would have already been deemed domestic terrorists. They advocate violence and admit they cover their faces so they can commit crime. Seems ripe for FBI infiltration and conspiracy charges.
This is one of the “many sides” that rioted a week ago and was there strictly for violence.
You can be opposed to ANTIFA and neo-Nazis. That isn’t the political spectrum available to us.
Note: I do not personally advocate white separatism or white homelands and don’t judge this thread or me based on comments.
This is a favorite tactic of leftists. Judge an entire board or website based on the COMMENTS section. Seen them do it with Breitbart.
I do support free speech and the right to expression. If some group from any political side wants to march let them.
What I see are riots again and again caused by ANTIFA and other groups against mainstream conservatives like Coulter, etc.
BLM has been given over $100 million by the Ford Foundation and other left leaning sources. What does BLM do with that money? Who is paying them and why?
Democrats are trying to astro-turf a real movement of the people. The Tea Party and Trump’s election mobilized people because they were motivated to act. All Democrats have are big money donors who fly people around the country to riot. We saw that with the Trump paid protestors and, I suspect, are seeing it again with ANTIFA.
I can’t see the harm in signing this petition to classify Antifa as terrorist organization.

CNN also ignored the fact that Antifa got its start as a socialist/communist rival to the Nazis in 1930s Germany. They use the same tactics as the Nazis did because they were competing for the same followers.
Supporting Antifa because it is anti-Nazi is like supporting the Crips because they aren’t the Bloods. In reality, they’re all bad.
duh cnn who wears masks and carries bats etc.?????
I agree the MSM , as usual, has manipulated and many on the right jump through their hoops.
And what about those “Nasty Women” in pussy hats?
Mark Bray August 16, 2017 interview on NPR
Everyday Anti-Fascism in the Era of Trump by Mark Bray
Stalin was anti-nazi
It was, overall, a puff piece that seems to try to make it look like these people are justified in their violent tactics to shut down everyone they disagree with. They certainly didn’t try to emphasize that Donald Trump was right.
Just enough truth to make their lies more believable.
