The Left can't allow itself to be consumed by debates about antifa. We need a proactive program and patient organizing.
The events in Charlottesville have remained in the headlines for the last few weeks for a variety of reasons. Surprise at the audacity of a torch-light procession of neo-Nazis, Ku Klux Klan sympathizers, and “alt-rightists” in an American city, coupled with the murder of social justice activist Heather Heyer during a counterdemonstration, fueled the initial coverage. President Trump’s abhorrent response to the tragedy and local struggles against Confederate statues kept it alive. And frequently dimwitted debates about the merits of antifa have supplied yet more conversational oxygen.
But it would be a mistake for the American left to see this as a decisive turning point in history, or mistake torch-wielding fascists for a mass force. On the contrary: getting consumed by debates about supporting antifa in its street clashes with neo-Nazis misses the larger political landscape....

Which has been determined not to be a murder but the death by natural causes.
This was just like the battles between the white supremacist National socialist (NAZI) brown shirts and the international socialist (Communist) black shirts in Germany.

The Right Wing never had anything to do with either except to fight them both.
What.... natural causes????
Missed that ... documented where
Was she the one killed by the car backing up?

Bingo! See the Hayek quote on my FR profile page for some very astute observations on that, from someone who was around and paying attention at the time. It’s the 3rd one down, 2 paragraphs.
Don't forget the Occutard organizers.
And have central casting nazis ever used tiki torches before?

I like watching leftist neo-Nazi snowflakes melt like a puddle of dog piss.
Thanks
Thanks for posting that - I had not seen or heard that anywhere.
He was from the same town as the last guy to be drawn-and-quartered in France. The [probably mentally ill] guy attacked Louis XIV (XV?) with short blade knife in the middle of Winter when the king was thickly clothed.
Wikipedia says Robespierre was anti-capital punishment, but I came across a reference to a DP debate where Robespierre was pro, and his opponent, Brillat-Savarin, was against.
How about the left after shooting up of congressmen? It is like this very grave decapitation attempt is not even talked about, just a stupid wacko set up by a mayor to confront leftist protestors
Yep, I can garrantee you that if a Trump voter gunned down white supremacists at a rally, the liberals would blame the NrA and not blame the supremacists as they do in the case of liberal attacks on supremacists
I bet Jacobin Mag was all over the attempted massacre of 20+ Republicans by a Bernie-Bot. /s
I’m in favor of Lefties doing teach-ins at union halls!
