Antifa: Scope and Tactics:
Today's antifa argue they are the on-the-ground defense against individuals they believe are promoting fascism in the United States. However, antifa, who have many anti-police anarchists in their ranks, can also target law enforcement with both verbal and physical assaults because they believe the police are providing cover for white supremacists. They will sometimes chant against fascism and against law enforcement in the same breath.
While some antifa use their fists, other violent tactics include throwing projectiles, including bricks, crowbars, homemade slingshots, metal chains, water bottles, and balloons filled with urine and feces. They have deployed noxious gases, pushed through police barricades, and attempted to exploit any perceived weakness in law enforcement presence.
Away from rallies, they also engage in “doxxing,” exposing their adversaries’ identities, addresses, jobs and other private information. This can lead to their opponents being harassed or losing their jobs, among other consequences. Members of the alt right and other right wing extremists have responded with their own doxxing campaigns, and by perpetuating hateful and violent narratives using fake “antifa” social media accounts.

F—ing camera fairy, f— off!” an antifascist screamed at a Post videographer as he followed the group through the city.
“He’s got a camera!” a woman yelled from the crowd, pointing. “Get that camera!”
Blocks away, a photographer in a rain poncho was recorded being chased through an alley, while a woman berated other journalists.
“You’re betraying us!” she yelled. “Are you going to report how many people they tear-gassed?”

At the same event, NPR reporter Tim Mak watched antifa protesters lob fireworks and bottles at the police separating them from the white supremacists.
Then he ducked as someone whipped an egg at his head.

On Saturday evening, after university students who organized the day’s rally against white supremacy had left, NBC reporter Cal Perry posted video of a man with a kerchief around his neck, screaming, “Snitch ass news b—–!” and slapping his TV crew’s phone away.
The next day, a reporter for the local ABC Station WTVD shared video of antifa members shoving objects into his cameraman’s lens — then cutting his microphone cord.

Antifa protesters couldn’t find any fascists at Unite the Right — and harassed the press instead

When a Washington Post reporter tried to interview the antifascists, they refused to speak. When he followed them up the street with his cellphone camera, one of them shoved a black umbrella into his lens and several shouted: “No photos!”

This can harm us,” one of the protesters said, just before someone swatted the reporter’s iPhone out of his hand and threw it into the middle of the street.
The reporter and camera were fine, but the incident was not isolated. Again and again, small groups of antifa members harassed, threatened and occasionally jostled reporters. The activists demanded not to be photographed as they marched down public streets — even as many of them hoisted their own cellphone cameras and staged their own photo ops.

What a bunch of losers for their prop usage.

It’s sad the way the put gloves on the hands of wheel chair bound people as if they are going to need to protect their knuckles in a physical fight. Pure props and so insane.

This. Also, the guy with his pants halfway down his legs... I just can’t even.

Agreed. The source of their funding must be investigated.

THIS man with the tats!

You must be joking. But clearly you’re not. That’s a picture of degenerate thugs and not at all representative of America.

Nope, not joking. Also not claiming they're a perfect representation of America, but they are still much more representative than the white supremacist Proud Boys.

Mmkay. You do realize the vast majority of Antifa members are white, right?

Mmkay. They still have more minorities than the white supremacist Proud Boys. But if you want to throw your lot in with the white supremacists, you do do, mmkay?

You couldn't pay me to throw my lot in with either group, thanks.

Mmkay, and yet, you only freak out over one group, Antifa, while you give the white supremacist Proud Boys a total pass. But keep on claiming you wouldn't throw your lot in with either group, mmkay?

You haven’t explained who antifa is protecting Americans from, why they vandalize property, attack cops, and display communist sympathies.

Nobody here is defending the proud boys the way you are defending antifa.

Oh yes they are. Stop lying.

Where?

Every post that feigns ignorance. Every post that doesn't call them out while speaking over Antifa. You are such a liar.

This is an antifa thread. Please start a proud boys thread. No is defending proud boys.

This is a thread about Antifa at a Proud Boys rally. Antifa does not exist in a vacuum. But you resist every opportunity to speak out against the Proud Boys, just like you are now. That is defending the Proud Boys.

You are openly defending antifa.

Exactly!

Got nothing to say against the equally violent right wing militia groups?

What’s wrong with these people?

Antifa in Portland telling police to kill themselves.

It’s on video. If you think antifa is better than anyone else, you are a loon.

You are throwing your lot in with a group that attacks cops, journalists, destroys property, displays communist sympathies, an uses disabled people and people of color as absolute props.

Mmkay, both groups are violent. If I had to make a choice, I prefer the group that's violent towards white supremacists. Obviously, you'd choose to support the white supremacists.

Antifa is violent toward cops and journalists. How is that better?

Where are people defending the proud boys?
