@Erakius323 anarchism is a far left ideology. Nazis were about as socialist as North Korea is a democratic republic. The propaganda you're spouting is about a century old and has been debunked endlessly. Think of something new already.

@Erakius323 oh, btw, look up the origins of the terms right wing and left wing to see how little right wing politics is about small government.

@Erakius323 oh yes, and we should take Hitler's word that he was a socialist over all the evidence? Should we take North Korea's word that they're a democratic republic? This assertion is rediculous on its face and if you weren't too lazy to do a tiny bit of actual research you'd know that and know that this right-wing=small government thing was BS too. I'll hand that factoid to you too, though: right wing covers monarchies and theocracies because it's not for "small government" it's pro-heirarchy.

@lennyjenkins9931 antifascists lean left because fascism is a far-right ideology and because the first thing fascists do when they secure power is to send leftists to concentration camps and kill them and far left because the further left someone is, the less they trust police and liberal institutions to be a sufficient bulwark against fascism (which judging by the historical record, they are correct on). The poem starts "first they came for the socialists" because that is what the Nazis and pretty much every other fascist movement has done.

@Erakius323 you mean the proud boys? There are a lot of fascists groups in the US and some fascists are doing a hell of a lot more than getting into fist fights as non-Islamic right-wing terrorism makes up the majority of domestic terrorism in the US including repeated mass shootings at black and Jewish places of worship.

@lennyjenkins9931 strictly speaking, Communism is a moneyless, classless, stateless society, so I don't know of any of those existing in the modern era and I argee with George Orwell's sentiment that the USSR wasn't even socialist (which isn't the same thing as Communisim), but yes, I also oppose what today are called "tankies"

@johmyh14 funny thing about that. Every political ideology gives conditional support to violence. To pluck an example right out of your comment, and borrow some phrasing from another person, it's the "police force" not the "police let's sit down and talk about it" and that's not getting into the military or that every border on the planet implies the threat (and often actuality) of violence needed to maintain it. What qualifies as "necessary" can be up for debate, but stopping facism absolutely justifies any means necessary because you're effectively fighting a conspiracy to commit genocide against (at minimum) most human beings in existence.

@MWSin1 that is about the level of reality denial we're working on because truth doesn't matter to him, apparently. Only opposition to his political opponents (the antifascists, tellingly) seems to be a consideration to him. That and talking to death these rediculous points to filibuster discussion of the OP's point about antifa being an ideological stance, not an organization. Really curious, no?

@johmyh14 most antifascist action is non-violent and you're saying that people who would be genocided if fascists ever truly seized power to trust liberal institutions (which have historically often failed to stop fascism) and the police (who even the FBI says have been so infiltrated by white nationalists that it constitutes a threat to national security and you admit will often side with the fascists). You also have to justify why the state has the only claim on legitimate use of violence here and why antifascist violence categorically doesn't count as self-defense (and I mean that as a moral/ethical question, not a legal one). The question really isn't as clear cut as you're making it. I really recommend watching this https://youtu.be/bgwS_FMZ3nQ so you can at least make arguments that aren't full of holes you're not even aware of because of them falling into a cultural blindspot.
