    Part of the problem is they watch a video and it convinces them of something.
    As trump would say Sad.

    It's sad that these vets survived long enough to see the ideology of the people they fought take hold in their own country.

    I'm not in Antifa:confused:

    He wants to shoot people for exercising their democratic right to protest. Sounds more in line with the thinking of the nazis than those who defeated them

    Maybe you think different...

    My apologies Billy. It was actually aimed at someone who thanked your post. I should have been more specific.

    I of course think that aul codger was mad to say he'd shoot them.

    I just found it funny that 20Cent had posted a picture of soldiers from WWII to further his point stating:

    "These antifascists didn't have time to figure out who was being ironic or whatnot."

    Now he is slating someone who could have been in that picture.

    It was just funny to me.

    I apologise that I quoted you and made it sound like you were an Antifa supporter.

    Liking a post = slating.
    Making stuff up again.

    Again you've trouble getting past the one dimension. Gays can be conservative, Vets can be gay or racist or not. People are complex, however all those WW2 vets, regardless of their personal opinions, were fighting fascism. So your comment falls on its arse.

    Pretty good docu from VICE about the various extremist movements in Sweden.
    Brings up the Antifa and their brethren "the Revolutionary Front", extremely violent and dangerous militant socialists.

    Let's be honest. This isn't really an issue with them being left-wing. It's an issue of **** being ****, and using some group identity to justify their actions.

    Legends great documentary.
    It's not "libertarians" and centrists taking on the far right on Sweden discussing ideas it's antifa kicking ass.

    I’d place a decent wager 0 of those people are in Antifa. Or if they are it’s blind luck.

    I added that to be list already. A terrible violent menace who are cowards who live in their rich daddies basements, who are pro and anti fascist.

    You've got to do better than Ngo. He is a complete an utter fraud and far right activist at best.

    Fair enough, I’ve lost my wager. The skepticism is because people on Twitter lie all the time to make themselves look smart and edgy.

    “Chizzled square jawed athletic individuals”? Why is the shape of anyone’s jaw important.

    Don’t you know Antifa are violent thugs, who are paradoxically weaklings and cowards? They’re also a masked menace who are effeminate beta males, because they drink too many soy lattes.


    As a stereotypical alpha, I find this all very confusing. In my simplistic view of the world it’s peoples ideas and actions I judge them by and not their appearance.

    Nope, but I know who Andy Ngo is and I know he has a consistent history of fraudulent claims. As I said in the post you quoted he's a far right activist at best.

    He isn't a far right activist. Like anyone in America who "takes-on" the far-left progressive loons they get labelleed far-right.

    Even Joe Rogan has been labelled as far-right and a gate-way to alt-right.

    I kind of feel sorry for them, I don't rate them as a political force but I would say that individually they probably tend to have some issues, and their larping as Antifa is an outlet of sorts. they could still be dangerous in a group.

    He doesn't anymore. They let him go after the video emerged of him hanging with a far right group before the far right group attacked people in a bar.

    i know next to nothing about him, i just see his tweets retweeted from time to time, I only heard of him after Antifa beat him up for no reason,I assume he was reporting at the time. The guy is Asian and gay if I remember so ill guess he is definitely anti-Antifa but pro antifascism.
    if he is a bad person, what is the worst view he has expressed? but actual video or text he has written, not the hallucinations of someone that doesn't like him

    He's been fired or let go from almost every publication he's worked for. He often lies to his audience even where there is video evidence to the contrary, he is a bad faith actor in all this. Even pretended to have a brain injury to get money off people.
