I just didn't realize you advocated for Bernie Bros getting the beatdown. I shoulda given you a friendly squeeze for that.

Antifa are anarchists and therefore hate the left.

I don't agree with that. They're mainly to be seen as a far left group.

I thought they just wanted to reclaim anime memes from the new right.

I haven't advocated anything. Now put your dick away.

People hate Antifa. I don't really. Some things, I don't agree with, but I'm on board with their bash the fash goals.

Political violence is inherently retarded, no matter how you market yourself.

It's not generally a good idea. When they go literal and actually resort to violence, it doesn't fit into a still democratic model. The less literal version of "bash the fash", I mind less. Fascists aren't just a political interest group like any other. They must not be allowed to take hold. Their views have no merit. It's only out of a sense of decorum and in the name of the principles of a free and equal society that they should be given a long leash.

Just not too long... I wouldn't do what they do. But I'd be lying if I said I don't kind of think some of it is good on some level.

This is why I mentioned branding, since they're very rarely actually going after fascists in the US.
