    I’m baffled as to what the point of this comment is, besides waffling about the virtues of not picking sides for not picking sides’ sake.

      i have picked the side that’s stopping fascists. but the enemy of my enemy isn’t automatically my friend. i do not respect movents who are known for committing arson and battery regularly.

        I see your edit above, i see the comments you posted after said edit, and I’m not sure you now actually got what antifa means. Especially the part about it not being a single, coherent organization doesn’t seem to get to you.

          it did. but these smaller, unorganized groups are regularly holding violent protests around my area. and they identify with antifa.

          i probably identify with the core values of what it means to be antifascist, but again, i don’t want to be seen as extremist and/or violent.
