this is what the fbi considers terrorist actions. keeping tabs on fascist friendly police, carpooling, and organizing bail money.

also, they came looking for violence. not heavily armed fascists with body armor and all sorts of guns.

That would be fine by me. Talking about ways to push the window to the left and make progressive discourse and policy viable beats having to deal with wobbly centrists trying to make excuses to themselves about why their deathgrip on the party will finally yield positive results now, if you lefties don't muck it up, just wait and see!

I don't really need to hear leftists clutching their pearls about how black people like Trevor Noah or Joy Reid are especially terrible centrists.

Look at how much effort Condiv spends in criticizing Joy Reid, a random talking head who happens to be a lovely neolib.

yeah they did some real fine work infiltrating and suppressing the KKK

quote:

In one particularly controversial 1965 incident, white civil rights worker Viola Liuzzo was murdered by Ku Klux Klansmen, who gave chase and fired shots into her car after noticing that her passenger was a young black man; one of the Klansmen was Gary Thomas Rowe, an acknowledged FBI informant. The FBI spread rumors that Liuzzo was a member of the Communist Party and had abandoned her children to have sexual relationships with African Americans involved in the Civil Rights Movement.

i wonder how many klansmen the FBI assassinated as part of cointelpro? i know for sure they assassinated a bunch of black panthers

Joy Ann Reid doesn't hate transgendered people, she hates Chelsea manning and her politics. Similarly, Condiv doesn't hate black women, he just hates joy Ann Reid and her politics.

Condiv, you never tried to answer the question: if criticizing antifa makes you a fascist sympathizer, why doesn't criticizing democrats make you a trump sympathizer? This seems pretty relevant for you in particular, because you also regurgitate trump's propaganda whenever you think it's useful as a bludgeon against the democrats. And given that the person most responsible for the recent rise in nazi and white supremacist violence is Donald Trump, doesn't that make you a fascist supporter, as well?

I honestly don’t get why Joy Reid is being targetted beyond her being a black woman. Is she an actual Dem operative because afaik, she’s just a MSNBC talking head.

Democrats arent anti trump--probably the stupidest assertion in this thread. Like do you think you're doing the left any favors by making the dumbest arguments imaginable on their behalf? Do you want me to quote people in this thread losing their poo poo at the suggestion democrats might base their strategy entirely around opposing trump?

For the record I do not hate antifa and I find their nazi punching very cathartic. Whether it's going to pay any political dividends, or any more than nonviolent direct action, I'm more skeptical.

The Dems are not anti-Trump in the same way that antifa is anti-fascist.

The Dems are willing to work with Trump in certain cases. They admit he occasionally has good points. They long to reach across the aisle and reform taxes so the donors are happy.

Antifa does not give fascism any quarter. They have total dedication to the removal of fascism. It's not an equal comparison.

Here's the actual source on that statistic.

https://www.splcenter.org/20140401/white-homicide-worldwide

It's a global stat from 2014 that includes Anders Behring Breivik (69 deaths alone) and a variety of non-hate crime familicide incidents. Not to downplay the actual violence from white supremacists, because it does happen when these losers break and the public's attention span isn't that big when it comes to remembering small events, but it's important to view the threat as it is.

Condiv posted:

My point was more it isn't a left or right thing. This is something the FBI has been doing for decades. Fred Hampton was murdered because they were terrified that he'd be the great unifier that would bring together all the black power movements nationwide and transcend race (which if you've ever watched the fantastic documentary, The Murder Of Fred Hampton, you can hear that they weren't wrong in that belief)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6-JVliecLo

If you're actually interested in what the FBI did to white supremacists groups during cointelpro, here's a good PDF on the subject. It's extremely interesting stuff, even though we'll never know the full reach of the program (or, you know, if it ever actually stopped)
