PO1 Tony Holland "McDaniels was not alone in seeing anti-fascism and anti-racism as intrinsically connected; the anti-fascists of today are heirs to almost a century of struggle against racism. While the methods of Antifa have become the object of much heated political discourse, the group’s ideologies, particularly its insistance on physical direct action to prevent violent opression, are much better understood when seen in the framework of a struggle against violent discrimination and persecution began almost a century ago" Sums it Up Perfectly.

MAJ James Woods
I agree. The "dress in all black with masks" and creating chaotic incidents at what should be peaceful protests have not helped their ideological movement. Some would say it's a revolution; looting, rioting, vandalism, destruction of private property isn't a revolution. Targeted acts of dissidence similar to the Boston Tea Party or moments the Black Panther Party did in the 60s should be the model for how AntiFa should act. Otherwise, they will continue to be viewed as anarchists.

MAJ James Woods - Yeah the "All Black" Fashion Statement was used by the Italian Fascist. They Need some Better Fashion Guidance.

We tend to forget that it is a movement, not a group like say the KKK or O9A.
