The Left Has An Antifa Problem
2019-07-02
[VictoryGirlsBlog] The Left has a major Antifa problem. Antifa groups are supposedly against fascism. Yet, their actions show the complete opposite. Their brutal attacks on innocent bystanders and journalist Andy Ngo this weekend in Portland are prime examples. What does the left and 95% of the media do in response? Put the blame on Andy Ngo and work overtime to offer excuses for the violence.

As Kim wrote here, Andy Ngo was attacked for filming the protests. At last report, he is in the hospital while the doctors work to heal him and deal with a brain bleed.

The sheer number of journalists and blue check marks on Twitter who crawled out from under their rocks to blame Andy is astounding and unconscionable.

#4  It's not a problem for them until it costs them.

So far it's gained them more than it's cost them.

This has the whiff of the standard Conservative Commentariat "Let's appeal to the better angels of the left's nature/sweet reason/or at least their self interest" routine.

Has stuff like this ever worked?

When lefties en masse suffer long prison terms (or worse) then they'll rethink things and not before.

#3  The left doe NOT have an ANTIFA problem. The left has a Fascist wing of their party that they support. They need to stop supporting fascism and the ANTIFA brown shirts will go away.

#2  I believe someone in LE (FBI, DoJ, ATF, or DHS) should look at these "milkshakes" being tossed around by the Antifa people. From the description of their contents, I suspect they might easily qualify as chemical weapons.

#1  It is not the Left's problem, it is a valuable tool of the Left, and it is doing exactly what they want it to. The intifadAntifa is supported by the DNC, those smug fuckers in the House. The people wearing masks and attacking American citizens are their voter base.

The Antifa are the bastards you saw crying and beating their chests when Clinton lost. They elected the Democrats to save their 'revolution', to help bring in this anarchy. And anarchy is what the left wants, so it can replace it with a police state.

How can anybody expect the democrats to stop them, or even condemn their acts ? It is up to conservatives alone to mount a counter-offensive in defense of their cities and institutions, and the President to declare Antifa a terrorist organization. Complacence and blind trust in institutions has always led to bitter destruction. All the enemy has to do, is infiltrate your institutions of authority and you're his.



They present a specter of alt-right elements and Nazis out to kill diversity and spread hatred and hurt, right ? So why can't people get together, coordinate a guerilla campaign that shows them what that would be really like ? Give them something to really cry about. Remember Clément Meríc and Pavlos Fyssas ? The elected executive and conservative lawyers and judges should provide extra-legal support to vigilantes.

The conservative must understand that intifad, antifa, spring, rebellion is all the same thing. And consider how other societies deal with it. The Israeli duvdevan squads, hindu right wing militias, the Buddhist extremists in Thailand, Myanmar, Austria's street gang vigilantes... Americans need to get their hands dirty to clean house.
