There have been a number of bullshit responses to this post. Let’s go over a few of them. 

@bagofmanythings: So a group that stands for a bullshit worldview that I don’t agree with is worse than a group with an opposing but equally bullshit world view and a tendency for violence … hmmm.

Antifa means antifascist. The only worldview all antifa share is: nazis are bad. If you disagree with that, guess what that makes you? 

@fandom—fiction: Im sorry for not supporting the people marching around with guns. If its a choice between Antifa and the Neo-Nazis im obviously siding with Antifa but in ANY other situation I would say they are dumbasses too.  Its like the Clinton vs Trump thing. If I had ANY other choice I would have picked it but I still picked Clinton because shes an idiot, but she isnt a sexist racist bigot.

Neo-nazis are here, they are marching in the street, they are attacking minorities. Either you let them do this undisturbed (=collaborator)or you try to stop them (=antifascist).  Antifa means antifascist. Antifa isn’t an organisation, it’s a movement defined by one thing: being against nazis. The only opinion all antifa share is: nazis are bad. If you’re not sure if you share that opinion, well.. 

owenreidmyhra: Man it must be nice to label anyone who disagrees with you a nazi sympathizer, that way you can’t be wrong about anything.

My “Nonviolent” Stance Was Met With Heavily Armed Men

A post from Logan Rimel, parish administrator at University Lutheran Chapel of Berkeley (CA). Logan traveled to Charlottesville during the weekend of August 5 to bear witness with his friends at Ch…

I never felt safer than when I was near antifa. They came to defend people, to put their bodies between these armed white supremacists and those of us who could not or would not fight. They protected a lot of people that day, including groups of clergy. My safety (and safety is relative in these situations) was dependent upon their willingness to commit violence. In effect, I outsourced the sin of my violence to them. I asked them to get their hands dirty so I could keep mine clean. Do you understand? They took that up for me, for the clergy they shielded, for those of us in danger. We cannot claim to be pacifists or nonviolent when our safety requires another to commit violence, and we ask for that safety.

And so I come to this – white liberal Christian friends, I’m talking to you. I’ve seen a lot of condemnation of “violent response,” lots of selective quoting Dr. King, lots of disparagement of antifa and the so-called “alt-left,” a moral equivalency from the depths of Hell if I ever saw one. You want to be nonviolent? That is good and noble. I think…I think I do, too. But I want you to understand what you’re asking of the people who take this necessary stance against white supremacy, the people who go to look evil in the face. You’re asking them to be beaten with brass knuckles, with bats, with fists. To be pounded into the ground, stomped on, and smashed. You’re asking them to bleed on the pavement and the grass. Some of them are going to die. And you’re asking them to do that without defending themselves.

Are you willing to do that? Are you going to to go out when the Nazis come here, to the Bay Area, next week? Are you going to offer your body to them? No? Are you willing to take a bat to the head? To be surrounded by angry young men who want nothing more than to beat you unconscious, like they did Deandre Harris? Are you going to rely upon a different type of violence – that imposed by the state – to protect you – even knowing it is a danger to your neighbors? To outsource the violence your safety requires to someone else? Or are you just not going to show up, at the rally or afterward? To choose passivity over pacifism – because let’s be clear, nonviolence is still about showing up.

That’s it. That’s all that needs to be said on the subject.

okay like Durham police made the decision not to arrest the people who ripped the statue down in favor of seeking charges after the fact. A good reminder of why masking up matters. Just because you are not detained at an action doesn’t mean you got away with it. Always obscure your identity.

Stop taking pictures of protestors!

Stop RECORDING protestors!

Stop identifying protestors on social media!

You’re LITERALLY doing the police and the state’s job for them!

I also meant to add this

A bail fund has been set up for everyone arrested.

I’ll say it before and I’ll say it again:

You cannot challenge racism, on this level, by being nice to and reaching out to white supremacists.  Their entire ideology revolves around dehumanizing us.  It just does. not. work.  

You cannot fight fascism by prioritizing the feelings of fascists and letting them think they’re safe around you.  You don’t “get them on your side”.  Because treating them kindly and respecting them, gives them your silent approval and access to those of you who are way more vulnerable than you are and who cannot afford to feel safe enough to “debate” with these monsters. 

Our humanity is not a question or a debate topic, and by giving these people a platform you legitimize their views and help spread them to a larger audience.

LET’S NOT FORGET: THE COPS ALLOWED THIS VIOLENCE TO HAPPEN. BLACK LIVES MATTER ARE MET WITH TEAR GAS, K9’S AND RIOT POLICE WHEN THEY ORGANIZE PEACEFUL PROTESTS YET THE POLICE DON’T GIVE A SHIT WHEN A BUNCH OF LITERAL NAZIS RUN AROUND WITH TORCHES ATTACKING STUDENTS. FUCK WHITE PRIDE. FUCK THE POLICE. AND IF YOU “DON’T AGREE”, FUCK YOU.

[ororomunroedontpullout]

The police even said they dropped the ball because hey didn’t intervene aggressively enough soon enough. They didn’t do their fucking jobs but are ready to roll out the tanks with Black people with their hands up

[infernalseason-deactivated20180]

Yep.

i can’t reblog because i’m blocked but like, this whole rally would not have happened or would have been delayed had the ACLU not stepped in to ensure the rally went on. the nerve of that stupid liberal oaf to try and pull a fast one on people by limiting the problem to just the cop-propaganda, rather than the fact that this whole debacle would have been avoided if the ACLU had remained neutral on the problem of, “should nazis be allowed to rally in public”.

but it didn’t, and now someone died just so the ACLU can thump its chest about its legal virtue and look, all i’m saying is that if the ACLU wants to emphasize their centrist, all sides are the same ideology on the basis of the “blindness” of justice by advocating for nazis’s right to a public forum - a brand that now has a tangible, immediately traceable body count - then their desires should be satisfied by having their eyes removed. justice for all right, especially the people who openly gloated about fighting in court to make sure the event took place:

these fuckers are wrist deep in the blood of at least two people and some of you have the nerve to come to their defense? and then cry about being told to eat shit and die for defending the people who made this all possible?
