      Can you explain how Antifa is a terrorist group?

      I’d love specifics.

      What specifically have they done? Who have they terrified? Hell, even just… Who is the group?

      Antifa isn’t a group like Al Qaeda, The Taliban, ISIS, The Proud Boys, etc. it is an anti-fascist philosophy. So if you’re actively against antifa, that necessarily puts you on the side of fascists. Keep that in mind when looking at who is vocally against antifa and trying to demonize antifa.

          Got it, so you can cite literally nothing that “antifa” has done that would qualify as terrorism. Your “proof” is a memo telling Federal workers what to do. A memo coming from an 80-year old pedophile rapist dementia patient that demonstrably and very publicly repeats whatever he was last told as if it were his idea because he can no longer keep things straight.

          That’s not the point, I was shutting down right wing rhetoric.

          Sorry misread your comment out with the dog. I agree, it’s just common sense.

            What right wing rhetoric? They just made a factual statement. Antifa WAS declared a terrorist org. It’s insane nonsense that doesn’t even define what antifa is but it’s true.

                My understanding of their incredibly vague comment that you are reading an awful lot into, is that terrorist designations are silly and mean mostly nothing because the people doing the designating are untrustworthy.

                But you can feel however you want about things

                    Antifa is good and is also a terrorist org according to America.

                    AIPAC is bad and should be a terrorist org according to America, but is not.

                    These designations are silly.

                    You declared that you were not talking about antifa but the other person pretty clearly brought it into the conversation, albeit in a confusing way and you didn’t understand what they meant and attacked them. I just think that is kind of silly as well.
