An armed Antifa group is launching a new cell in Philadelphia, with support from the “alt-left” alternative media.
The group currently hosts anti-police workshops called “Our Enemies in Blue.” The group draws inspiration from convicted murderers and calls for violence against the police, theft of goods, and armed insurrection.
Antifa websites like It’s Going Down, Sub.Media and Insurrection News have been promoting the group, which calls itself the Revolutionary Abolitionist Movement, calling on their readers to donate to a Fundrazr account for the creation of the new cell.
The press release the group published in far-left media is filled with hyperbolic claims about how “mosques are being ruthlessly bombed” and how “LGBTQ are being battered.”
“The destruction of black life continues unabated as millions languish in the plantations of the modern day slave system,” the group states.
Taking pride in the “legacy” of “Philadelphia’s rich revolutionary tradition,” RAM cites Mumia Abu Jamal, the Black Panther activist who shot and killed Philadelphia police officer Daniel Faulkner in 1981.
It also cites Russell Shoats, who shot a police officer in the back five times in 1970. Similar to Antifa, the actions of the Black Panthers have been described as having a “very undefined purpose of assaulting police officers.”
Like other Antifa groups, RAM claims to oppose the usual -isms and white supremacy, but a quick look at the organization’s “Political Foundation” page, as highlighted by Far Left Watch, notes the inclusion of several alarming points, including the “Abolition of Gender,” and the “Expropriation and the Cooperative Economy.”
The latter calls on members to “expropriate” or “take away” goods, lands, and tools to “begin the revolutionary process.” Expropriation is another way of saying “seize” or “steal.”
The organization models itself after the so-called Rojava Revolution, a leftist guerilla movement currently active in northern Syria. RAM states that the communists offer a “foundation in communal and council based political organization and militant defense.”
The organizations within the Rojava Revolution are currently involved in combat against ISIS.
Far Left Watch notes that RAM has been hosting a variety of anti-police workshops including a “Legal Training” workshop, a class on the “Introduction to Anarchism,” and one called “Our Enemies in Blue,” which deals with anti-police action–or how to handle police officers during violent clashes.
Despite active calls for violence against law enforcement and revolution against the government, the liberal media has been surprisingly lenient in its coverage of Antifa, depicting them as righteous crusaders against the rise of white supremacy.
If you pay close attention to the pictures taken of the fights that are going on from these riots, there are undercover feds all over the place. Thomas Wick on twitter has pointed a few out.
They are quietly arresting these people days later after some after they get outed on the internet. I think all the leaders are slowly being picked off.
If you watch the video of the women this weekend that was arrested with the circle glasses who knocked a phone out of a reporter's hand.... she and the women she is with have red arm bands and communication devices.
I’m starting to understand the desire to cut the heads off idiots dressed in black with masks the radical Islamic terrorists in Iraq and Syria have. Sometimes there’s an enemy bad enough to justify it.
I find it unsettling to want to do the same thing to this antifa enemy yet somehow needed at the same time. Heads with black masks on pikes lining the streets of Philly.
Machete’s are on sale at Harbor Freight today! I wonder if they could offer a discount on pikes by the dozen.
Bring in the French OAS who got the same type of fcktard Alliende out in Chile, or it is Venezuela
the Saiga twelve would make a good street sweeper to start to clean up this mess
the cops certainly cant/wont save us
No need for force. Philadelphia will vote for this.
I agree completely. Bunch of whiny overgrown children throwing temper tantrums. It cannot possibly end well for them.
Even nasty pelosi is now “condemning” them, in her own little black hearted way.
“And we cannot find who is organizing or funding them, why?”
I worked for a company that was picketed daily for months by protestors who arrived on a chartered bus, were given signs and box lunches when they left the bus, and who lined up to wait for the bus at quitting time. This was a small part of a larger campaign, national in scope, that included prominent spokesmen who were otherwise employed by or running Florida State University. The amount of money involved must have been substantial. The campaign included newspaper and magazine articles supporting the effort.
I think that if you pull aside the curtain on almost any leftist project you will see embarrassing things that will call into question much more than, say, Antifa financing. The same money is being used to support Democrats for high office, some of whom doubtless are publically against other things being paid for by the same patrons. The lobby money is spread across far more than just the left, and that is where the political cover comes in. Exposing the finance of the violent and anti-American groups will also expose the same money givers as backing big name Democrats and Republicans. Therefore, the whole financing angle is being ignored.
Close enough to me to go “hunting”
A few years ago I was working in Colombia when FARC and the ELN had the country paralyzed. Presidents and Samper and Pastrano pacified the thugs. Well the elected Uribe as president and he declared war on the so-called revolutionaries and then it wasn’t so much fun to be a member of FARC. One could get killed. Well the same goes for ANTIFA, as long as the Liberals are pacifying and even sponsoring them they are bold, well put the National Guard on them playing hardball and they will have a change of heart as well.
They seek overthrow, arrest them.
“Bunch of whiny overgrown children throwing temper tantrums.”
They remind me of a gang of school yard bullies. We had just such a gang at my elementary school one year. Terrorized the whole playground, and the teacher(s) who were assigned to supervise Lunch Recess stayed away from the playing fields so they wouldn’t have to see them, and do something about their depredations. The gang, or at least their leaders, were 6th graders, who had been held back; 12 year olds ganging up on 6 to 11 year olds. Eventually, we younger kids organized and ran them off. Then WE got in trouble!
So many parallels to the current troubles.
This will likely sell somewhat in the city but these turds should be wary of stepping outside the limits. Its an entirely different world out there and they might not make it back into the city if they decide to venture out!
They are coming for NFhale
They read his posts here.

And a fun time was had by all... except them...
