Antifa is Worldwide

WASHINGTON, Nov 13 (Reuters) - The United States on Thursday designated four entities in Germany, Italy and Greece as global terrorists, accusing them of being "violent Antifa groups" as President Donald Trump takes aim at left-wing groups.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a statement he had designated German-based Antifa Ost as "Specially Designated Global Terrorists," along with three other groups in Greece and Italy, in an effort to build on Trump's "commitment to confront Antifa’s campaign of political violence."

We are told by Democrats that Antifa is a small grass roots group with no leaders and no money. 🤔

During the course of making these accusations, did they identify how these entities were organizationally structured? Or were they just asserting relationships and organization around a vague ideological belief (that fascist is bad and needs to be stopped) and call it a day?

I'm trying to understand why you would trust Marco Rubio's designations without question.

@ViciDraco And that from someone who insisted sleepy joe was as sharp as a tack

@sunsporter1649 When did I insist he was sharp as a tack? I may have stated he was more competent and mentally sound than President Bone Spurs. But that's a pretty low bar. Most of what I liked about Biden is that he put good people in place and then stayed out of their way. Maybe some of that was not having the energy to get in the way, but he was getting pretty good results.

@ViciDraco How much did you pay for that bridge?

@ViciDraco So you are OK with Violent groups using Fascist tactics of Censorship and Violence to do what again?

Oh yeah, to get rid of Fascists that do not exist. So what we are left with is Violent fascist groups around the world doing
what again?

Just because you call a group of people Fascist, that doesn't make them Fascist, or a Dictator, or a Racist.

Just because we don't want men beating up on females in sports, it doesn't make us Fascist, or anything else.

This is why we are called "Right"

@DogMan y'all keep making assertions about what I am saying or believing when I haven't said or indicated any of that. I questioned why you take one man's unfounded assertion as gospel and decry the opposing assertion as false.

DogMan · 61-69, M

@ViciDraco What One man's assertion are you talking about? Rubio? I have not heard him say anything. I watch the
videos of the Anti First amendment ANTIFA folks reeking havoc, starting fires, assaulting people, stopping free speech, etc..

They are cutting off the funding. That's what this is. Anitfa was being funded both domestically and internationally, this is to address the international support.

@SumKindaMunster Democrats believe they are all disorganized groups, that have nothing to do with each other.

They believe they all are suppling their own materials and transportation, and that there is no organization, they
believe it is all spontaneous.

So they use Fascist tactics of Violence, Intimidation, and censorship, to stop Fascism that doesn't exist. Cool huh? 🤔

@SumKindaMunster I guess they believe kicking criminal illegals out of a country is Fascist, right?

Upholding laws created by both parties is now Fascism. I think it is Fascism to keep law enforcement from
doing the job they were hired to do.

@ViciDraco This was posted by Bizsuit stacy. I noticed that no lefty's posted after him. Did yall realize that
Antifa is an old well-organized institution?

I thought the democrats said antifa was just an idea?

Except that it's been around for about 100 years in Europe...as communists fighting the "far right socialists" 🙄

@ViciDraco What are the historical roots of antifa?
The roots of antifa trace back to the interwar period, specifically to resistance movements against the rise of fascism in Italy and Germany. Antifa was inspired by antifascist movements that emerged throughout Europe.

What tactics does antifa use?
Antifa uses tactics such as “deplatforming” fascists, doxing, property damage at protests, and disrupting right-wing events. Its members aim to prevent fascist opponents from organizing or promoting their beliefs.

The above tactics were also used by the Nazis against Jews

@DogMan My only point is that you are speculating that all of these groups are actively affiliated.

Imagine if I had done something like accusing Christians of doing X. And then stated all Christians were part of the same organization and used Christian organizations existing as evidence that some group of particular Christians were acting in a coordinated and organized way. Fairly sure you'd demand more proof of active affiliation.

@DogMan you have a lot of nerve, and act despicably by comparing anything to The Holocaust! What is Antifa anyway, there is no such organization!
