antifa are misguided losers who need to be kicked out of mom's basement and/or thrown in jail, but I'm not sure you can say they are as bad as literal nazi's

It's so stupid that we even have to have this conversation though. You're talking about ~10k on the extreme left and extreme right who don't represent anyone but themselves. No y'all are not Nazi's/KKK and believe it or not just because I don't support Trump (and do so vocally at that) that does not make me an Antifa sympathizer.

I agree with you totally - with one exception

I believe the antifa group represents far more threats than the KKK/Nazi group. The latter groups are universally disavowed and mocked, they have zero influence, they are shunned by everyone, nobody is being attracted to their cause,

on the other hand, antifa/BLM is growing - they commit physical violence in response to 'thought crimes' - if you have political differences with them, they attack you physically - they have the absolute support of one of the major political parties in America, and the entire MSM - they are the darlings of the left wing academia organizations - they have tremendous influence because city state governments bow to their every demand.

THEY are the group who is exercising tyrannical prowess at the moment - and their successes are attracting other weak minded types from a lot of areas, including the cess pools of academia.

Unless the DEMs and their advocates in the MSM step up to stem their growth, this shite is going to get real - and by that, I mean normal people are going to take up arms to defend their constitutional rights.

Well said, Drac.

I think the problem with these groups is compounded when normal folks on either side try to paint them as champions of that side of the aisle. Most libs I know don't have any use for antifa. Ditto for conservatives and neo-nazis.

Narratives just get established so quickly these days it's difficult for the voice of reason to prevail over the cacophony.
