Current Affairs The 2020 United States Presidential Election

But it does?

Is it like "The Labour Party", an identifiable organisation? No. But it exists; the movement very clearly exists.

This isn't like the Loch Ness Monster.

It isn't - these are anarchists, Tubey. People will turn up for whatever they care about as individuals - whether thats opposing fascists, opposing climate change, opposing school closures or trying to save their local A&E.

There isnt an organization, deliberately. If there was, these people would leave.

You're making the point that "ANTIFA" which, I'm hoping you know means Anti-Facism, not sure if you know that, is a group that mister second coming is equating to far right groups that have killed thousands of people. ANYONE who decides they don't like how Trump has been acting in his 4 years is essentially ANTIFA as they have been protesting against him being bringing in fascism.

It isn't a group, it's an idea ffs

No I'm not equating them. "Proud Boys", for example, isn't a movement; it's an organisation. They aren't an equivalence.

Antifa (yes, I know what it stands for) is a movement against such organisations. It's not an organisation in itself; you're right, it's an idea, but an idea supported by a loosely collated movement. So they exist. When you say they don't exist, you're simply incorrect, as by your own definition they literally exist.

Yeah, see though, the extreme right won't compromise with your views either. That's what makes them extremists.

You are two opposite sides of a spectrum.

Grown ups suggest someone who is a bit left and supporter of a center left party is the flip side of people violently storming the capital refusing to accept the result of a vote

He'd accidentally send them to the right building?

I've just said they aren't.

I said movement; not organisation.

 

[davek]

Are they all going home now, after he said to?

Give them their due, they are loyal MFs.

Expect state capial buildings to be attacked / occupied in the next few hours or days.

In every state the law enforcement agencies need to be flying out of the traps and dealing with the situation. They'll have intelligence on who to go after. They should deal with them as severely as possible. This is an attack by barbarism on civilisation. No holds barred. Just put them down.

Erm... what?

 

[Blues Harp]

You really are a disgusting scum

He's a grade A wum @Sassy Colombian. Ignore him

 

[SerenityNigh]

I cannot put my mind around the video from POTUS

 

[LinekersLegs]

Waste of time. Just prosecute him for sedition and incitement to riot like any other citizen. Not a joke.

I’d impeach him just to make double sure he can’t ever run again tbh.

 

[davek]

This is one of the most pathetic things I have ever seen.

It's a child's tantrum on a massive scale. Spoilt horrible gits.

Bit more than that in reality.

More like start a civil war..

 

[tsubaki]

I've just said they aren't.

I said movement; not organisation.

you are saying movement as if its an organization though:

They do. Decentralised movement in the same way BLM are, so their actions can be disassociated from the 'cause' if need be.

The movement still obviously exists.

 

[dead_soft]

Erm... what?

You said ‘Yeah, see though, the extreme right won't compromise with your views either. That's what makes them extremists.

I’m not on the flip side of people storming the capital, which the extreme right currently are. But good on you being a grown up.
