    Have you wondered about the flags?

    Antifa was a militant organisation in Weimar Republic started by members of the Stalinist "Communist Party of Germany".
    The original logo of Antifaschistische Aktion from 1932 was actually entirely red like so:

    It was changed to include black for anarchists. That’s pretty easy to find out. Why the questioning?

    Have you looked up the three arrows down symbol at all? One commonly used by Antifa. One arrow each for fascism, monarchy and soviet communism.

    Hmm I wonder if the Proud Boys were going to be outlawed would they be posting the same thing.. I doubt it.

    Why? The statement was in favour of peaceful protest.

    I’m not. I’m also not a member of the Bee Gees, but I know most of the words to Staying Alive.

    I am able to use Wikipedia though. I know this is shocking news to you, but there are search engines that can find information on the entire internet and deliver it in order of relevancy.

    That's not surprising. The United Nations has its roots in Communism. When Communists were being exposed in the US State Department it was common for them to move along to jobs at the newly-founded UN.

    The likes of Mary Jane Keeney, Gustavo Duran, Alger Hiss, Philip Jessup, Dorothy Kenyon, Esther Brunauer and Owen Lattimore all went on to work at the UN.

    Hiss even helped staff the UN a few years before he was jailed for lying under oath about his Communist activities.

    Brian is the dead bee gee, so rumours abounded that you were not, I wanted to believe.

    Let’s not forget Gorbachev who went from being premier of the Soviet Union to UN golden boy and environmental guru overnight. His seat in Moscow was hardly cold by the time he was in the limelight at Rio 92. If that doesn’t say it all.

    Gorbachev who was instrumental in dismantling the Soviet Union? Historically he's a pretty admired leader.

    The Soviet Unions central command economy was an utter failure, stagnant and on life support since the mid 1970s at least, there was no saving it, it was beyond all repair, a giant monolithic fail like the rest of the Soviet project. Perestroika and Glasnost were last ditch attempts to bolster the terminally ill Soviet economy. Gorbachev remained a communist and was an icon for western communists who were reinventing themselves as liberal environmentalists in the early 90s.

    #BlueLeaks has a trove of Antifa related documents, most of which suggest that police are aware that a large amount of alleged Antifa violence is right wing Provocateurs.

    Antifa were apparently planning to turn up at a protest over removal of Russell statue yesterday, but when they realised that organisers were pretty serious Dublin dissident republicans they decided that it was day to wash hair or dummy runs for Bohs casuals next assault on oul fellas wearing Rovers scarfs :--)

    Isn’t a fist fight part of the initiation to the Proud Boys? Or did they drop that.

    I honestly don’t believe the Proud Boys are any sort of terrorist menace. I think they’re lonely gimps looking to belong to something for the most part. Deluded lads easily taken in.

    No idea. And I agree with you. But the point is there is no chance in hell the UN would've tweeted what they did had the Proud Boys been the group that Trump or any president was looking to defacto outlaw.

    So Seattle's CHOP Antifastan area has now had it’s second shooting occur, a man has died, a deaf woman sexually assaulted, 30,000 Seattle residents live under CHOP’s mob rule, the media is controlled, it’s walled off, and can't feed itself so it relies on food from people it hates.

    The democrat mayor and democrat governor should be in jail for failures to control the situtation. And now a billion dollar company, Smead Capital Management, is leaving and moving its headquarters to Phoenix’s Camelback Corridor.
    ” … The unrest that has taken place in the city of Seattle … there is really is not a downtown business community today,” Smead Capital Management, President and CEO Cole Smead told KTAR News 92.3 FM.

    This should be a wakeup call to anyone who allows and encourages Antifa to get a foothold in their cities.

    You can ignorantly accuse me of "whataboutism," but what it really is involves identifying similar scenarios in order to see if it holds up when the shoe is on the other foot!

    Soymalia is absolutely hilarious, a showcase of how brain dead these types actually are. Didn’t a gangsta rapper declare himself king there recently lol.

    My mistake, he actually does call himself a warlord. What a cesspool Seattle has turned out to be. Another democrat run city flushed down the toilet.

    They will be screeching hysterically for Federal funds no doubt.
    Let Antifa and BLM put humpty dumpty back together again.

    Be interesting to see if the mayor gets the crusty scum to agree to the cops coming back.

    If they do it proves that BLM/Antifa is nothing more than Democrat cats paw.

    Indeed that was already proven in Atlanta when they were not allowed run amok after that child beater was shot.

    Soon that imbecile Biden will be in the spotlight. Not going to plan at all.

    I'll ask the same question I keep asking. What has this got to do with Antifa?

    Sounds like Seattle is spiraling out of control, won't someone think of the children!!!!!
    The New York Times, which had a reporter on the ground, described the occupied area as "part street festival, part commune."
    "Hundreds have gathered to hear speeches, poetry and music," Mike Baker, a Pacific Northwest correspondent for The Times, reported. "On Tuesday night, dozens of people sat in the middle of an intersection to watch '13th,' the Ava DuVernay film about the criminal justice system's impact on African-Americans. On Wednesday, children made chalk drawings in the middle of the street."

    Chalk drawings on the street! It's like the last days of Rome, civilization won't survive such anarchy.


    You lot need to lay off the Breitbart/Fox/Andy Ngo anti-Antifa echo chamber for a while. I am starting to think Anitfa Derangement Syndrome is even more sever than Trump Derangement Syndrome. People see Antifa everywhere, waiting around every corner. It's really bizarre at this stage.
