Thank you for all the information in the pod-cast, especially about the Bulgarian journalist and her gun-running story.
The Deep State running those operations is a truly psychopathic entity. And of course, if any journalists exposes them losing their job is the least of what can happen to them.
I agree with most of what you say, but when you talk about the Antifa people as communists, my guess is that they are not really.
We have them too here in Germany, the Antifa or "Black Block" who mask their faces and riot through the streets at every demonstration, burning down small cars and destroying whole neighborhoods.
I'm not a Marxist, I believe Marx was wrong in many ways, but I do know that actual lefties would never indiscriminately use violence against their own people.
In my opinion the Antifas have the very same function and are controlled by the very same people as the Neonazis to discredit dissenters of the current system in the eyes of the majority population.
The Neonazis (or KKK) are to discredit the more right-wing libertarian and anarchist dissenters and anti-war activists, while the Antifa are there to discredit the left-wing social justice minded dissenters and anti-war activists.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
I have to disagree. I believe the social justice warriors in America are dangerous. They evolve out of Cultural Marxism. So there is that. I point to actual Antifa that I've talked to, debated and watched on video in my assessment that a good amount of them are Communists. They call themselves "anarcho-communists", which is a real term, which they use incorrectly. Most of them do not understand what the flag they fly represents and I acknowledge that. That doesn't change the fact that they support the hammer and sickle. I can't speak to "Black Bloc" other than to say that it is different that the "Antifa" in America.
And true lefties do support violence against people that disagree with, especially the radical left in America. It is taught to them in schools by Marxist professors. That the world is broken into the oppressor and the oppressed. Dangerous collectivism. They than wish to use to the power of the State to meet their end goals. Which is just outsourcing the violence.
The Social Justice Warriors is a group supported by George Soros, the ultimate financial speculator and capitalist, my guess is that their leaders are paid to be violent.
Yes, I know, communists can be violent, but normally against people they perceive as enemies. What the Antifa and the Black Bloc did is utterly random violence in poor neighborhoods, even in neighborhoods that were traditionally left-wing. They burnt small cars and not big expensive cars, never even tried to get to rich neighborhoods or the commercial areas of town.
And that's what made no sense to me, it didn't fit the profile.
As for me I have come to dislike the left-right paradigm altogether, I see it as a divide and conquer thing, so that the little people like us are on each other's throat constantly and are incapable of seeing the real problems in this world.
On many issues you could call me a cultural conservative (I'm very much opposed to abortion, because I believe in the sanctity of life)
On the other hand I also lost all trust in central governments, I believe that democracy can only function as direct democracies locally where everybody has a say and can decide what the rules and laws should be for the community.
I see all power concentrations as dangerous, including the power concentration that comes with too much wealth disparity.
Wealth is fine while you use it for fulfilling your needs and get some luxuries, however once you use it to buy influence and gain power over others, then it becomes problematic.
So here is my take on this. I think looking at the Antifa/SJW/Resistance/Whatever else as a monolith is what is the most dangerous. By this I mean they're not all the same. Resistance members are obviously different from violent Antifa and SJW Bronies, but even within the Antifa movement, there are card-carrying pacifists who would do no harm. There are Anarcho Communists and Anarcho Capitalists, all with varying predispositions to violence. There are likely Soros-paid ring-leaders, as well as even darker hands in the pot.
Just like the alt-right aren't just Neo-Nazis. There are libertarians and disenfranchised republicans. There are violent white nationalists as well as black intellectuals. These groups can't be defined as monolithic, or we miss out on a lot of intriguing details. Groups will always be defined by their "loudest" members, but we have to fight that idea.
you are right groups are rarely monolithic. And in our day and age many groups are infiltrated by intelligence agencies or Soros financed people. It's hard to avoid that. The only thing you can do as a peace activist is to stick to the principles you believe in and not blindly follow any leader.
That's the thing, if groups are organized based upon being a group of people, it will fail. Groups have to be organized based upon certain principles, and all members have to hold each other accountable for those.
