The left loves its "Antifa doesn't exist" trickery.
What they really mean is, "Antifa doesn't have any central organizing body, and it's more of a loose collective of agitators."
Which is true, but that doesn't make it any less dangerous or problematic. The left likes to pretend that Antifa's lack of central direction means it's not anything to worry about.
The whole argument they make is just so disingenuous, but these are the same people who say "A woman should have the right to make her own health decisions with her doctor", when they really mean, "If a chick wants to abort a baby at 8.5 months because her boyfriend left her, she should be legally allowed to murder that child."
Anyone engaging in violence or breaking the law is a problem. The thugs Trump sent in who are beating and kidnapping nonviolent protesters are also a problem. Fox News and Trump are trying to make it look like "Antifa" is somehow part of the Democratic Party, like they have seats reserved at the convention or something. It's bullshit designed to brainwash people and stir up anger and hatred.Quote:

The truth is Antifa is completely irrelevant, but if Trump and his cultists admitted that and stopped trying to scare people, they'd have nothing left to do but answer for their own incompetence.
I get that many people are stupid and are never going to understand how cynically Trump is manipulating them while at the same time completely screwing them over with his actual policy and harming them and the country with one spectacular fail after another. But frankly Druff I am disappointed in you because I know you are smarter than this.
No matter what happens the response is always orangemanbad. Always. Really hoping that strategy continues up until Election Day.Quote:

it's literally like trying to argue with children on this site
It's a myth in the same sense covid is a hoax.
I'd surprised if they had more than 10k active members. More than 10 million non-antifa members have been protesting. That's about 1 in 1000.
Antifa doesn't organize shit. They don't have a roster. Any leaders. Any hierarchy. Chapters are barely connected nation wide.
They have nothing to do with Democratic Party. Most of them are anarchists or communists.
At this point there are more news stories about Antifa than they have members.

Try to gaslight as much as you want but your bullshit can’t make hours of video of Antifa’s violence and destruction disappear. The mask is off.
Nancy Pelosi running cover for Antifa.

Definitely more drugs for Antifa. Have you seen how much energy Antifa has during their riots at 4 in the morning? It’s gotta be meth.Quote:

LOL. They are loosely organized and deny direct affiliation on purpose. It’s called Fourth Generation Warfare.Quote:
