Yeah. Antifa. They've been fighting fascists since 1920s and part of their rationale for autonomous action is that the state is just notoriously bad at opposing fascism. That's why they protest against right wing fascist gateway speakers on campuses, because fascist speech / well crafted lies is fascist recruitment. Unfortunately well meaning "liberals" like e.g. Bill Maher then always come out of the woodwork and say bla bla free speech lol.
There is also liberal fascism that uses legal means but that's already pretty active in the US.
Sorry if I'm telling you something you already know :) But liberals like Bill Maher
FinishedTFW 😋
Haha oops! Yeah he's just an example though. Well I'd say they grew up and lived in a time where the economy had real growth so there were opportunists and they got wealthy - so they fundamentally don't understand the power of fascism as material conditions deteriorate. They are stupid and that is dangerous.
Exactly. Some of us have been calling out fascists lies for our entire adult lives. Standing strong to attack them when they march.
