    Would RW pundits, social media trolls and the likes do this? Would the alt-right proponents stoop to fakes news and lies to smear the left? Is there no bottom to the neo fascists? Peeps really need to take their social media with 2 grains of salt.

    Anti-fa doesn't need any help in looking bad. It's an evil group that does very bad things. If other groups are posting things in anti-fa's name, it's counter-productive.

    Then you'd better tell the far Reich wannabees about your beliefs as they still feel to need to create fake news about antifa?

    Wow, defending Antifa all while implying they represent the left.

    I didn't think anyone would defend Antifa.

    Honestly Antifa does a good enough job destroying their own credibility that they don't really need anyone to help them with that.

    Almost 300,000 people have signed a petition at whitehouse.gov to have ANTIFA declared a terrorist organization. It only takes 100,000 signatures to be considered and the total grows every day. There is also a petition on change.org. It IS a terrorist group. Libs talk about the KKK wearing hoods. Well, ANTIFA wears masks. If they are so proud of what they are doing, why do they hide themselves?

    Why is it that Liberals think that skin-head, white power groups and the KKK represent right-wing conservative thinking? I'm a right-wing conservative that gladly voted for Trump and I would love to see groups like that disposed of in a volcano somewhere. The KKK is a Democrat group and white power organizations are just a bunch of violent criminals with no real use on this planet.

    The KKK WAS a democratic group prior to the civil rights act - they switched and became GOP because they felt the democratic party had sold them out for civil rights.
    The KKK has praised Trump, they don't praise democrats for decades and decades.
    We are not saying all in the GOP are racist, but if you are a racist, the GOP is your party.

    Losing your memory is a tough thing. Senator Robert Byrd was a Democrat and a high ranking member of the KKK. I can't recall him ever denouncing the KKK for real and not just blathering PC statements for publication.

    You might also remember that Black Lives Matter did not exist until Obama fertilized the scene.

    It is the people that keep shrieking about racism that are the racists.

    WAS WAS.
    It has been decades since the Democratic party housed racists - they did, I agree - but they moved to the GOP after the Civil Rights laws.
    YOU KNOW IT IS TRUE.

    Because they desperately need a boogie man to push their narrative. Those groups are the left's "useful idiots". In fact, I would not be surprised one bit if Soro's finances the KKK and Nazi clans.

    Is it fake? ANTIFA believes anybody that voted for Trump is a Nazi. They also believe it's OK to punch a Nazi, or anybody that disagrees with them. These pictures that look like clever memes that perfectly encapsulate ANTIFA philosophy.

    I feel that. Nobody likes ANTIFA but ANTIFA. If they keep it up, then I think the authorities will have to lay the smack down on them.
