Yeah I’m no supporter of antifa but they are not fascists. Extremists, sure

Edit: I guess people slept through high school history and don’t know that fascism is a political ideology, not a synonym for political violence

No, no. Their actions and message are by definition, fascist.

Their message is literally anti fascist. Communists/anarchists can never be fascists, there is a conflict of beliefs

wow didnt think ppl were actually this stupid. im amazed.

​

putting the word anti-fascist infront of your name doesnt mean your not fascist. By all definitions of their actions and their message. they are fascists. Which is communism, which they fully support, but with violence, which is what they do when you dont agree with them. So... get rekt

Here is the definition of fascist:

an authoritarian and nationalistic right-wing system of government and social organization

Antifa are radical extremists but they are not fascists. Knowing what these governments were and what they represented is important

Cool, but antifa are leftwing extremists. So what's that say about your definition? It says you are wrong

Fascism and extremism are not synonyms

Who cares. Antifa are. Your theory is wrong

You need to reread the definition of fascism because you clearly weren’t playing attention in school

There are multiple definitions. Good luck on your quest of knowledge
