Antifascists should axiomatically and ALWAYS eschew showboats and wannabe big-shots

People who want to speak for everyone, who want to take interviews, who put their face/voice out there, who exude braggadocio

Are ANATHEMA to safety and the culture of antifascism insomuch as it exists

You’re talking to people who have been directly involved with anti-fascist actions and know more than you about this

If you’d bother to read Mark Bray’s book “Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook” you’d discover you’re wrong here

LOL

Goofy ass…

Being against fascism is great - but it’s not “antifa”

You COULD and SHOULD do what it takes to actually be “antifa” however - become militant. Get involved. Don’t be content with sitting on the sidelines and/or mere expressions of anti-fascism.

Take action

Antifa exists but not like Trump and normie chucklefucks think it does

it’s not a monolithic organization…but rather a tapestry of dedicated groupuscules, affinity groups, and individuals who come together around a common goal of repressing/deplatforming/rolling-back fascist movements

It literally is not.

Demonstrably.

Antifa is a dedicated political modality predicated on ACTION and came out of mostly European opposition to neo-fascist movements in the 80s - a politics of action picked up by and implemented by astute radicals across the world who observed its efficacy

Jeffinitely @jeffinitely.bsky.social · 2d

Antifa is a politics of action - of physically and militantly confronting fascist movements and/or working directly to to dismantle them

Most people opposed to fascism are, unfortunately, still unwilling to be militant…to be l actually “antifa”

…but they ought to be and can start anytime they like

The actual left (dems are right of center) have never been liberals

You and the DNC are MUCH closer to the GOO ideologically than you are with leftists

So why would you expect us to be with you and your right wing candidates/party?

You’re mad at the wrong people

You should be mad at the DNC and Harris for refusing to condemn genocide, for refusing to actually say and do the things the voting public wanted, for putting the wishes of the owning class above those of the working class

Not wanting to co-sign genocide is justified

It’s because they (the DNC leadership) are ideologically, republicans-lite. Or rather, more than merely “light” - and believe that their diet-GOP positions are in-fact as far left as they can reasonably go. This is why they are mystified that the DNC base is so disorganized and fractured

Literally came out of a dorkass group of conspiracy weirdos called the “Thule Society” - who believed in some lost Atlantis like landmass called “Thule”

• police were literally created/formed from slave-patrols and their urban equivalent the “city guard” (and later incorporating aspects of the Peel System which was developed for colonial occupation)

• The FBI were formed from Pinkertons specifically to persecute leftists

• it’s all rotten

I recall the foliage in Chapman looking gnarled and dead in the middle of summer, from the fumes that wafted up - and some instances of mystery smoke that was not the usual CS gas but was extra-irritating to eyes/lungs/skin

Who knows what that did to peoples lungs…

The only reason I’m responding is posterity and to clown on bigoted dipshits for the espirit de corps

I don’t debate fascists/genocide-apologists/nativists/racists et al
