I certainly hope no one is against the base goal of being against fascist. However, I think the criticism towards Antifa is more due to their means of reaching that goal.
I meant more the position of being "antifa". Isn't the actual organization decentralized and unstructured, like Anonymous? That's literally all I know about Antifa, and even that might be wrong...
Antifa isn't an organization. Yeah back in Nazi Germany it was, but nowadays its just a movement. There is no organization, any group or person can take up the movement, symbolism, etc of antifascist action (antifa). It is genuinely a situation of if someone is "anti-antifa" then they are either stupid or a fascist.
I don’t get why we don’t call the “anti-woke” crowd “the asleep.” It seems like if they want to treat becoming awakened as an insult, we should be reminding them that they’re the ones who have their eyes closed and are attempting to ignore all of history.
The optimist in me believes that some day the majority of them will wake up, the same way the majority of Germans eventually denounced the nazi party.
The majority of Germans denounced the nazi party because of social pressure to conform, which is coincidentally the same reason the majority of Germans went along with the nazi party when they were in power. The majority of people in general are so politically disengaged that they may as well be leaves blowing in the wind.
