I’ve been calling Antifa the alt left on reddit since Trump coined it. It’s pretty effective especially when you don’t try to define it. When they ask me what it means I give them one those old you might be a redneck saysing but with stuff antifa does instead. Really pisses them off.
The term alt-left is close enough to the term alt-right that it hurts them personally. By implying they’re stupid rednecks(with antifa stuff subbed in) it really screw with their minds.
I happen to know a couple of youngsters who went since I’m an oldfag member of the Europa group. Fine young men. Not prone to drinking, doing opiates, banging everything in site. They despise boomer degeneracy (I’m GenX). I see nationalists. I see America First kids. I don’t see hate mongers. I see respimles kids. They ask questions about the narrative.
These are kids who are big, strong and take no shit. I’m a badass and I wouldn’t F with them. Staying fit, learning their weapons, learning about survival in the worst of conditions. It’s like a more vulgar roided up not scout. Polite but don’t cross them. I wish I had that self control at 23.
