[R] Trolling Antifa Thread

[Scomagia]

That wouldn't be assault, sugar.

Neither was Ngo. Assault implies an innocent victim and a belligerent perp. Neither one really fits the context (yes, that nasty word that makes your simplistic jargon so wrong again) of what was going on.

As has been repeatedly pointed out, context matters. To say political violence is uniformly wrong anywhere and at any time is self-evidently untrue, as you've now acknowledged.

So, the violence against him was justified? You're using a lot of words that imply that's your meaning.

Justified is a hard word. From what I know of the case, necessary is probably accurate. But it's a judgement call made by someone who was not present and heard the case only second-handedly. But yes, someone arranging to injure or kill their political opponents is probably a valid target for direct action in self or collective defence. It's hardly as though he were an innocent bystander as you were claiming a few pages ago. Far from it. But at least you're off that stupid train now.

Calling an assault "justified" or "necessary" seems like trolling. I can't imagine someone saying that the murder in Charlottesville was justified or needed would be tolerated for a moment.

Not seeing it as actionable.

From the same thread, the underlined of which I'm pretty sure counts as trolling or flaming since there's at least a couple of people on this site who openly identify as AntiFA:

No garden-variety conservative who wasn't doxxing or engaged in race hate or proudboyism has had any contact with Antifa in any meaningful way, as you are probably unaware, because you seem to think Ngo and his ilk qualify as 'garden variety'.

Really? Because, as the source I provided you with that you didn't read demonstrated, there were actually peaceful conservatives at that rally who very much had contact with Antifa.

Because it turns violent left-wing extremists don't like conservatives either. Who knew?

As for your ancestry, that wasn't relevant nor do I care. I'm quite happy for people to throw rotten tomatoes at murderous fascists and anti-Semites who want a race war. If you don't, that's on you. Ethnic self-righteousness here is not relevant.

Antifa isn't protecting me from Nazis or from being ethnically cleansed. In fact, as a right-winger they'd beat the shit out of me.

They aren't stopping fascists or people who want a race war. They hate anyone right of center, because they're degenerate extremist scum.

EDIT: And doubling down on that, apparently:

Righto, because that's definitely NOT painting people you disagree with with an overly broad brush based on the actions of one particular subset of that group because it's more convenient of you to demonise. Totally different from what you were ranting about me doing a minute ago. Got ya. Do you even read how dumb this stuff is to yourself before you post it?

Antifa cockroaches are a subset of a subset of a group. I am painting them with a broad brush because violence is their modus operandi. Or, if we're using commie Newspeak, "direct action".

[Nova Cyberia]

Since we're playing this game.

Torra has me on ignore, yet continues to subpost me. And here she's trying to use my heritage to claim that I'm defending Neo-Nazis, which I've never done here. So, aside from being a liar, she's a troll.

No garden-variety conservative who wasn't doxxing or engaged in race hate or proudboyism has had any contact with Antifa in any meaningful way that I know of, as you are probably unaware, because you seem to think Ngo and his ilk qualify as 'garden variety'. You're perfectly well aware conservatives are not the people I'm referring to.
Unless you want to deny such people were at Charlottesville, among other places?

Imagine using your ancestry to justify your defense of Neo-Nazis, holy shit lmao it's so fucking stupid.

Also, Antifa's entire modus operandi is violence. They're violent scum, and so I call them as such. I'm fairly certain there are Neo-Nazis and white nationalists on this site, yet no one gets in trouble for calling Nazis scum.

[Scomagia]

Thanks for the look.

As far as I'm aware, there's no rule against ignoring your own foe list.

I'm not seeing that post as actionable.

Thanks for taking a look into that, Luna.

'See kids, these days you don't even have to kill anyone to get labelled a terror group! Just show up to fight people who've killed a bunch more, then you'll be fine!'
Yeah no. I'll take these Senators 'anti-terrorism' shtick seriously when they go after the far more dangerous groups Antifa is combatting. They are backed by Congressional and institutional support, not to mention more or less outright being OKeyd by the current POTUS. Antifa basically has none of that, and isn't even an organisation besides.

Plus, friendly daily reminder that anybody who thinks Antifa and Fa are equivalent is an idiot. Thanks.

Emphasis mine.

Except, Antifa is beating the shit out of innocent people that are just journalists

You mean Andy Ngo, who blatantly spread false information that led to several LEGITIMATE journalists being put on ACTUAL NAZIS' hitlist? Yeah, he had that milkshake coming, on general principle.

military veterans, slightly right-wing, or just there.

Believe it or not, we are capable of telling the actual fascists apart from your common, garden-variety conservative.

Emphasis mine. Trolling by justifying violence?

Beaten for carrying an American flag. Unbelievable.

Yeah. Here is my belief...
If you don't like the best country on Earth, the United States of America, then fucking leave faggot.

I completely agree. To me they are far left terrorists, and should be treated as such. They are traitors to my country and in the United States, treason is punishable by death.

More possible trolling.

The same user's signature also says they will "personally attack anyone who hates the United States of America"; a clear cut case of advocating violence. The mods might want to deal with that at the same time.

I reported that in the sig thread once. Fris deemed it not actionable.

In my defense, saying someone had it coming is different from advocating they should be hit. It's like the difference between saying you won't be sad someone died, and actively wishing for their death.

[NERVUN]

Alright, in looking at all of that, it's right on the line, but I'm going to say not actionable. The 'had it coming' remark is not pinging my meter, and the leave it, while could be seen as flaming does not seem to be directed at anyone in particular on the forum, leaving it to be just sliding through the cracks.

As for supporting the IRA, we're not gonna open up that can of worms.

Thanks, Nerv.
