Antifa = anti-fascistAnti-antifa = fascistPeople who can’t understand something that simple are either too stupid to argue with or clearly have a vested interest in not being able to understand it.

@fkamiah17 Right, so you’re saying I should’ve said “and/or” instead of “or”. Fair enough :)

@aralanti-antifa = anti-anti-fascistanti-antifascist = profascistanti-antifa = profaAt least that's what I'm going with. Then if they confusedly ask "what's profa?" I can respond with something immature.

@aral just a minor nitpick, let's sayAnti-anti-gay != Gay It actually means pro-gay, or maybe gay-ally.I'm not sure if someone can be pro-fascist without being one, but maybe that will be a better message 🤷♀️

@Sh41 > I'm not sure if someone can be pro-fascist without being oneWe have a name for pro-fascists. It’s fascists. Just like pro-racjsts are racists. And pro-sexists are sexists.

@Sh41 (The incongruity you’re highlighting is because being gay isn’t a choice, being fascist is.)

@aral I still think calling someone pro-racist or pro-fascist gives them a better chance of redeeming themselves 🤷♀️Maybe I'm just too naive

@aral It is oversimplified and misleading in the black-and-white view. Antifa means "anti-fascist action" and it is quite radical "organization" (or network or whatever you want to call) originally created by comunists in Germany. So being anti-antifa doesn't mean to be pro-fascist. It can be anti-comunist and still anti-fascist or just be "anti-radical" in any meaning.

@aral Some of these mouthbreathers claim that "antifa" means "anti First Amendment".It's kind of lucky that I can't reach down my internet connection and strangle people. Or perhaps it isn't...

@Karel_Kosnar If you don’t want an over-simplification, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifa_(United_States)#History

@aral as I live in the Czech Republic, I am more familiar with the Czech (or European) version of antifa, which is very close to anarchists. But even with the US view of antifa, you can criticise or reject antifa and not be racist at the same time.

@aralThere are two kinds of people: those who understand Boolean logic and fascists.

@aral We should abandon all group mentality and identities. Zero trust. Personal actions, not words and slogans. Groups are honey pots and are easily abused to mislead people.Stand behind person and their moral values.Groups hide accountability, same as political parties.

@aralIt's worse. They think they're being clever or even smart with this subterfuge. At least the few fuckwits who've said this near me.
