@therealpennyfortheguy @Scarabeater@anticapitalist.party Agreed, I 100% support attacking Nazis at every turn. Though I've never actually seen Antifa attack a Nazi, just old ladies and old men wearing MAGA hats.
@therealpennyfortheguy @Scarabeater@anticapitalist.party That has not been my expiernce. Every event I attended where Antifa was to be present their intention was violence, and many of those times they acted on it. I have seen them assault 4 people personally and in every case they were elderly except for one of them who was 50'ish.
@therealpennyfortheguy @Scarabeater@anticapitalist.party No way to ever know for sure. I can say that the Antifa groups usually met privately before hand (of which ive managed to join in on a few such meetings with 2 separate groups at different times). In both cases they encouraged people to bring weapons (such as knives) and seemed very eager to engage in violence. I'd be rather skeptical of the idea that the entire group were putting on a show and they were really cops.
Neither of the groups I mentioned however were the ones who actually engaged in violence that I witnessed and mentioned above. I dont know if these groups followed through as I promptly left in both cases.
@therealpennyfortheguy @Scarabeater@anticapitalist.party I am glad to hear that there are Antifa groups out there that are anti-violence. Take away their violent nature and I would be quick to support them.
@therealpennyfortheguy Sure, I have no issue with self defense. All the incidents I witnessed were Antifa provoking attacks against people who were not in any way violent.
@therealpennyfortheguy Well you dont have to look far to see such incidents captured in video, But I didnt record the specific incidents I witnessed, no.
@therealpennyfortheguy Hardy a moot point (its moot not mute btw).
Simply because I didnt record it doesnt change the fact that its real. Just as you didnty record your local antifa preaching about the "number one rule", but that doesnt rule out the fact that you likely experienced that all the same,
