I don't think you get it. I am absolutely interested in shutting down hate and calls for race wars. Absolutely. The citizens opposing Nazism are not calling for war as the Nazis are. They are calling for an end to racism and hate.
Problem a part of the counter-protest movement are committed to violence. There is no need to embrace those people to oppose supremacy
I am talking about the rise of white nationalism on a military base in the South, opposed openly only by a local SHARP crew. I saw the whole thing from start to finish.
The locals do not want Nazis there.
You never mentioned that before.
I do not know why you are going on and on about beatings when I have clearly stated that the Nazis were shooting people and causing fatalities and one sucking chest wound. I don't think the SHARPs managed to get in an effective beating on a Nazi at all. There was a lot of campaigning, a lot of yelling, some truces on occasion, and only the POC were shot.
My point was about political violence and attacking people for no actual crime.
You said the Nazis are here because they are feeding off of antifa.
They are just as antifa feeds off of "Nazis" Both have ideologies that are opposes to each other.
I said, no.
In that you are wrong.
They were here before. I saw them. They don't need anyone to feed off of, as they feed off of their own hate and they seek out violence, instigate violence, and have done so historically even from positions of power in the South, as their ideology was tolerated and their membership in violent racist orgs (like KKK) was accepted and often their social outlet.
We are not dealing with a peaceful organization. We are dealing with violent people, who typically come ready to commit fatalities. Antifa out of towners, for all their criminal tendencies, do not pack heat.
Wrong again. Antifa dates back to the KPD of Germany. Communism is against racism as it is divisive. Having a group such as supremacists is just a target for part of their ideology.
Nazis are not moderates, either.
Oxymoron really. Nazis are extremist just as communists are.
It would be fantastic if we could stop violence. But it seems we have people gearing up for it, and they want more. Antifa does not have a long term fantasy about wiping out other races. Nazis do.
That is because people are giving a pass to one group's political violence.
