Should Antifa members be shot?

@Madhatter Are they really anti fascist or are they creating their own fascist regime. Personally when I see an old lady trying to cross the road and a group of dickheads get in the way and shout assault at an old lady with a walker trying to push past that's enough for me to think kill.

@Psycho Yes, they are really anti-fascist. No, they aren't creating their own fascist regime. That's not what the word "fascist" means. I don't know the old lady you're referring to, but my assumption is that she wasn't picked at random. I've seen videos of an old lady literally wearing a nazi armband that they hassled and yelled at. Being old isn't a free pass to be a piece of shit, awful human being that's actively making the world a worse place. I don't care if you're old, young, white, black, male, female, left, right, up, or down. If you're a racist or a fascist, fuck you. You deserve to die and the world will be a better place when you're gone.

@Madhatter The only part of Antifa that doesn't meet the definition of fascism is that they are far left rather than far right and allow me to get the video one minute.

@Psycho Fascism is defined as a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition.

Let's take a look at that. "Exalts nation and often race above the individual." Racists and nationalists. "Stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader." Trump and his administration as they actively try to bypass democracy and stay in power. "Forcible suppression of opposition." https://www.businessinsider.com/right-wing-extremists-kill-329-since-1994-antifa-killed-none-2020-7

@Psycho Video shows no context. The old lady wasn't harmed, only spoken to loudly. Was she a nazi? Was she supporting racism? Was she supporting nationalism? If yes, fuck her. Like I said, being old isn't an automatic free pass to be a piece of shit.

@Madhatter Okay so Antifa don't forcibly suppress opposition? Don't make me laugh.

They don't put race above the individual? Well what would I know I'm just a white privileged man, they tried very hard to sabotage their political adversaries when Trump got elected seems pretty dictatorial to me.

😐

@Psycho No, they don't. They practice their constitutional right to protest, but unlike the people they're protesting against, they don't kill people for being different. Though they probably should, according to you. "Sometimes you need an extreme solution to an extreme problem."

No, they protest against racists. It doesn't matter you're white. And that's not what "dictatorial" means. What matters is you're intentionally being ridiculous and throwing out words you either don't know the meaning of, or more likely, you don't care about the meaning of and just want to defend the indefensible. I don't believe you're that dumb and I think you should have more self-respect than to portray yourself that way. If you want to argue against it, fine, you have the right to have an opinion, even if I don't agree with it, but form your opinion based on something that is real. If you have to make things up in order to support it, then that's a sign that you shouldn't be supporting it.
