The Antifa being the greatest threat to the US national security would imply the US being a fascist state. Of course this is not true, but maybe it's on his wish list.

@helenS That...is actually the best comment I've read thus far. That was a real slick move.

@AgapeLove I think she meant it in partial jest.

@AgapeLove No, of course not. He doesn't care though. As most religious people don't. "Jesus said don't be racist and hateful and a liar, except for when I do it myself. Then it's ok."

@AgapeLove I genuinely believe there is something wrong with him. His behavior, the way he talks, his reactions to things. I think he might be autistic or have Asperger's syndrome or something like that. And that isn't an insult either.

Facts don't matter, only the narrative.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@CountScrofula Going by the dictionary definition of terrorism, they technically fit the description, but just barely. If Antifa is to be considered terrorists then they're the least dangerous terrorist group in human history, because occasional street fights or chucking rocks at people is not violence on a scale high enough for most rational people to consider them an actual threat.
Which isn't to say I condone it. I don't condone chucking rocks at people, or spray painting on city buses as they've done. But you're correct about the narrative. Antifa is almost like a godsend to modern American conservatism because it provides them with exactly what they've wanted to pretend the greater portion of leftists are for so many years now - scary looking thugs who are trying to instill totalitarianism and prevent them from speaking their minds.

@BlueMetalChick Maybe Antifa will fit into a dictionary definition of terrorism (as would any illegal strike). My issue is that it's not a technical term, it's a political one that carries a lot of weight and means "BAD GUY" because the association is killing a lot of people.
Language is defined by use, and the use of terrorist indicates someone who is a universal villain who must be stopped. It implies a threat similar to ISIS and plays into the "the left are more violent than the right" thing I hear constantly from conservatives.
So although it may technically fit, it obscures what they actually are and do. I'm not even a supporter as their tactics just marginalize the left even more.

@CountScrofula Fair point. When one calls a group "terrorists" they usually don't mean it specifically how it's defined by Merriam Webster.

Antifa is an offshoot if the occupy movement, which was mostly aimless. They aren’t so much a threat as a mostly amusing sideshow.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@StevetheSleeve Antifa like ISIS is a dying breed.
These Trumptards are too desperate now and is looking for any type of distraction
to ignore the issue at hand. You know you are running out of cards when you are talking about Antifa. 🙄

The antifa bs is mostly about manufacturing a false equivalency.

And of course fascism isn’t a threat... we saw that 🤦🏻♀️
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@SW-User Fascists were in positions of political power, and had access to large amounts of money, manpower, and weapons of war. Antifa are teenagers wearing hoodies who throw rocks at people in public and spray paint on bus windows.

@AgapeLove That knowledge wasn't gained through introspection so therefore it's worthless.

skinny dorks dressed like ninjas are not a threat..

Obviously Antifa people would buy guns, travel to another country and murder 49 inniscent people. Just because.

I don’t actually want to participate in this one, just thought I’d share a pic.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@GlitterBug No I get the joke, that Lisa Simpson meme is years old already. I'm just wondering why you pulled it out on this one.
GlitterBug · 22-25, F
Because I find it funny. That’s usually why people post memes. @BlueMetalChick
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@GlitterBug I suppose so. I'm fairly pedantic about memery though. I get upset when people misuse meme formats and such.
Which leads me to believe I might be somewhat "on the spectrum" in a way.

Well ANTIFA is not a bunch of Altar Boys, or Scouts...they have a tendancy towards violence. If you feel this other poster is making stuff up, I encourage you to look up ANTIFA and decide for yourself.@BlueMetalChick
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@soar2newhighs Poster? It's a guy in my university, not a site member.
I know exactly who Antifa is. I know they're violent and engage in vandalism. But they're a bunch of edgy teens who wear face masks. They're not a threat to national security.

Not that I necessarily disagree with you, and I thought it was another poster. That said. 1. When someone says what he say/she says, don't take it at face value. research it, from various sources. 2. Who determines what is a national threat to security is very likely people well above, as we would say in the military, "above his pay grade". My point is some people in Gov't for various reasons may well consider them a threat.@BlueMetalChick
