Antifa: Domestic terrorist organization

[Hank]

What's the point of labeling them as domestic terrorists?

Whoever Nick Sortor is, he is wrong that ANTIFA will dissolve by arresting anyone who provides material support. Terrorism tends to be based on ideology. In the case of ANTIFA its political ideology as opposed to religious ideology you see from groups like ISIS, AQ, so on. Albeit even those organizations have political interests.

Just my opinion on it.

I guess my biggest question is, what's the long term goal?  RICO charges against the Soros brothers, or whoever is funding Antifa in the US?

Will the hypocrisy ever cease? The organized and politically connected Proud Boys and Oath Keepers are every bit the “terrorists” that the unorganized, not politically connected as ANTIFA. And lets not forget Trump pardoned roughly 1,500 convicted or charged terrorists who attacked our capitol, beat up law enforcement officers, and committed sedition by intentionally stopping an act of Congress.

While you Trump is evil rant may be true, do you have anything relevant to add regarding the topic of the thread?

Why would you feel that calling out Trump for hypocrisy is not relevant?  Should it not be stated that the groups that perform similar actions but in support of a right-wing agenda are not equally culpable for their actions and as such should be labeled similarly?

I see no difference other than the color of their flag.

The question was, what is the long term goal? Pointing out hypocrisies and whataboutisms does nothing to answer the question nor further discussion. Does it?

I don’t see whatsboutisms (spelling?) working out. Wasn’t that long ago we were told ISIS was JV. That incompetence resulted in a serious lack of response providing freedom of movement for arguably the most brutal terrorist organization in the last couple decades.

Almost forgot, a ton of weapons and equipment getting left for the Taliban.

Don't forget the whacked out approval of people losing their jobs for refusing to be vaxxed, and in the case of some truly deplorable libnuts, the notion that parents should have their kids taken away.

I lost a guy on my team in the middle of deployment because of the vaccine. He refused to get it, quarantined, deployed, half way through got sent home. Needless to say, when your job is to work in small teams or independent, losing even one guy is significant for ops.

Oh yeah, it happened while we were in a not so friendly part of the world. So unnecessary 😂

You know who else took kids away from parents? Nazis.

You know who else made stupid decisions for their military? Nazis

You know who underestimated their adversaries? Nazis

Hey this is easy. All you have to do is make a comparison to nazis and start throwing it out there.

Do I start saying first they came for this, then that, then the other thing, then you, then Barney the purple dinosaur?

Are you scared enough now to do what I want you to do because I falsely believe I know better?

Don't forget that if I'm not sufficiently outraged as an anonymous poster on a political sub-forum of a hockey message board than I'm complicit in all things evil. Say that out loud and hear how stupid it sounds. Totally batshit crazy. What's your theory on how someone can become that deranged?
