Andy Ngo Details ‘Antifa’s Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy’
Daily Signal ^ | 2/10/2021 | Rachel DelGruise

I think some of the probably most relevant information for readers is some of the primary documents that I released for the first time, from somebody who was in the membership process for one of the largest Antifa groups in the U.S. You will see in there that the curriculum includes the radicalization process that lasts for nearly half the year.

So they really subject their recruits to really intense indoctrination and brainwashing. And, as part of the curriculum, they also train them on how to hurt and maim and injure their opponents, and also how to take up arms.

Antifa is a lot more dangerous than people give it credit for.

These guys are not just all losers hanging out in mom's basement.

Many are well funded and well trained revolutionaries who have used the BLM riots as small unit training and orgainizing

They are very dangerous

Per the article

“The curriculum is structured in part kind of like a university curriculum, except it lasts for months on end. And they complete different units.

So this curriculum is pretty significant because it was not just used for Rose City Antifa, which is a cell in Portland. But Rose City Antifa is part of this network called the Torch Network. And they’re connected to other cells across the United States, who are organized along similar lines.

It really lays to rest, I hope, in this claim that Antifa are not organized in any meaningful way, that it’s just an ideology of being against fascism.

They have been able to use that as a façade and a way to trick the public into not viewing them as a threat, and viewing them as allies in the fight against the far right, whatever.”

“So part of the origin story of Antifa looks at who are the original Antifa, capital “A.” So the original and first Antifa were a paramilitary group of the German Communist Party, in four years of the Weimar Republic.

And that’s important because, in that historical context, the Antifa today don’t necessarily have a direct lineage to the original group. They kind of just appropriated the name and the symbols and the messaging.

But the original Antifa were communists. The people that they called fascists weren’t just the actual fascists, in terms of national socialists, their opposition was primarily to the Social Democrats, which was the party that was in the governing party of the Weimar Republic. And they saw it at every turn to delegitimize the state. Their members were connected to previous communist uprisings.

Their goal, from the beginning, was always to delegitimize liberal democracy. And the Antifa today still continue that legacy and goal. If you step back, even after World War II, what became East Germany, the communist state of East Germany, they actually institutionalized the so-called anti-fascist ideology into the state ideology.”

The Berlin Wall, as we are familiar with what it’s called, to the East Germans, the official title was the “Anti-Fascist Defense Barrier.”

“So this whole label of being against anti-fascism has always been a trick. It sounds noble and great because, I mean, America was involved in a war fighting actual fascists. And so people who are ignorant about Antifa, maybe sympathize with the name, but they use that to pull liberals and the mainstream left into becoming allies or, in my view, useful idiots.”

“Antifa’s main enemy is the United States itself. You can look at their own literature. They viewed the United States as a fascist, imperialistic state, [that] doesn’t just need to be destroyed, but the American philosophy itself needs to be destroyed because America has influenced and exported liberal democracy to a lot of the world in the 20th century.

So that is their principal enemy. So the actions that they were partaking in during the Trump administration are the same in the Biden administration.

Even in November, when it was announced that Joe Biden had become president-elect, the response in the Antifa, in Portland, in Seattle, where they’re most active, [was] to take to the streets to riot.

On the 4th of November, the day after the election, the National Guard was actually activated for the first time by the Oregon governor because the Antifa were … smashing up businesses, one by one, in downtown.

They even destroyed a church, which I think that should have been more widely covered in the media because the destruction of the house of worship, that’s significant, I think.

And they continued that since, but the media had just moved on from Portland. The headlines aren’t so interesting when you can’t blame Trump, when you can’t blame secret police under Trump. So, much of the country wasn’t even aware that the riots were continuing on Inauguration Day in Portland.

The Antifa had announced way ahead of time that they were planning a direct action and, of course, they gathered a group of several hundred, and they marched to the headquarters of the Democrat Party in Portland and destroyed it. And this is the second time that they had severely damaged a building connected to the Democrat Party.”

Per the article

“But there are also journalists who are actual fellow travelers and members of Antifa groups as well. And I write about that in the book.

One of the people who provided some of the radicalization training to Rose City Antifa was a man named Shane Burley. And he has written opinion pieces for NBC, The Independent, and some other mainstream places. And he’s never been forthcoming about his involvement in training Antifa and extremist ideology. So, there’s also academics who are involved.”

Shane Burley is a freelance journalist, organizer, activist. and the author of Fascism Today: What it is and How to End It. He speaks about the rise of the far right and fascism in the US, the January 6th siege on the US Capitol, the current political moment, and what we can all do to effectively fight the rise of these dangerous movements.

From an Amazon book review

“Ngo provides the history behind Antifa; it’s roots from Europe, how it’s mutated in England and the US. His focus has been the Pacific Northwest, especially Portland and Seattle. He knows the players and they know him; a fact that is highly evidenced in the stunning photography he’s included.

His research also includes a syllabus for new members to the Portland chapter. You’ll find this in chapter 4 of the book; it’s offered after months of vetting, 6, I believe, and has quite a bit of mandatory requirements. There are also numerous concessions for inabilities. It’s purposeful...

Andy supports all his writing with extensive notes and references. The last 25% of this volume is devoted to it. He also takes a brief chapter to share a quick biographical sketch of his parents and their journey from Viet Nam. For me, this inclusion added an element of urgency and sobriety for a life already too visible to sleep peacefully.”

Democrat socialist progressive party = Underground
News media and big tech = Auxiliary
Antifa, BLM = Guerilla Force

This is a well orchestrated communist insurgency folks. It has all the traits of unconventional warfare. The Republicans are too naive, stupid, or part of the insurgency. This is right out of the communist playbook. A counter insurgency campaign plan needs to be developed soonest. By whom you ask? Good question.

You are exactly right. Our disorganization and lack of understanding will be the death of us... literally.

Hang on - our “liberal democracy” is a complete sham. If Antifa wants to destroy it, I’m not sure we should get in their way. Let them do the heavy lifting.

Shane Burley is an enemy to all patriotic Americans. One day fate will make it clear to him that he has made an unwise decision.

That’s how anger looks in a person’s eyes.
