Yet again we see it. In The Coming of the Third Reich, historian Richard J. Evans explains how, in the early days of National Socialist Germany, Stormtroopers (Brownshirts) “organized campaigns against unwanted professors in the local newspapers [and] staged mass disruptions of their lectures.” To express dissent from Nazi positions became a matter of taking one’s life into one’s hands. The idea of people of opposing viewpoints airing their disagreements in a civil and mutually respectful manner was gone. One was a Nazi, or one was silent (and fearful).
Today’s fascists call themselves “anti-fascists.” Just like the Nazis, they are totalitarian: they are determined not to allow their opponents to murmur the slightest whisper of dissent. Forcibly suppressing the speech of someone with whom one disagrees is a quintessentially fascist act.
These fascists will target you for destruction if you oppose jihad mass murder and Sharia oppression of women and others.
“POL-PPMZ: disruption of an event,” translated from “POL-PPMZ: Störung einer Veranstaltung,” Presse Portal, June 5, 2018 (thanks to Searchlight Germany):
Mainz (ots) – The University of Mainz today held an event on “Islamization and anti-racist appeasement.” This planned event was disturbed by a group of about 30 people around 6:10PM, so the police were called to it. The protesters held up banners and loudly expressed their displeasure. The organizer canceled the event due to the incident. The police subsequently monitored the exit of the protesters and those attending the event. In one case, there was a dispute between two people, which was settled. One of the participants refused to have his personal details taken, so he was taken to the police station. While on the way there, he tried to kick the head of the driver of the patrol car, but failed. The man was, after his personal details were taken, was released.

It should be illegal to wear a mask in public (The Lone Ranger excepted). Such anti-mask laws as exist are ineffective in preventing this fascist denial of freedom of speech and assembly.

Yes, masks are worn when a crime is being planned. Masks are a sign that serious criminals are present. The Islamic mask means that men are criminally repressing women and persecuting them … even torturing them.
Part of the reason for the Islamic veiling is to cover up the bruises on Muslim women caused by the BEATINGS they received from Muslim men.

Fascists the world over must be rejoicing. They, and their illiberal conduct have been tolerated by those in control of universities and important political events for so long now, that their expected capitulation could reasonably be predicted. Our ‘leaders’ have decided to follow the mob rather than to insist upon order and the rules of a democratic society. They, just like those confronted by the Brownshirt fascists of the Hitler era, capitulate en masse. The ensuing ‘debate’ isn’t, what evolves is a one sided shouting and screaming match, with the omnipresent threat of physical violence hanging over the proceedings. We are all well acquainted with the conduct of bully boys in back alleys. These churlish villains, many of whom have no qualms about breaking the law are now claiming ‘representative status’ in the halls of academia and elsewhere- and “we, the people” are permitting this rise of the ugly underclass to succeed. A cursory examination of the rise of Bully Boy number one – Hitler, should alert even the most quiescent of us to see where this road leads. We can no longer trust in the judgement of societies ‘leaders’ who have demonstrated their incompetence and ineptitude in these matters. We can and must demand a return to law and order, and we must insist that the mob and its leaders fail to subvert democracy.

Antifa = Animal Farm Fascists
mortimer says
Peter, they are actually Stalinists. The Antifa fanatics want Stalinism in Germany, but ironically, they would be among the first groups of useful idiots that real communists would arrest and send to hard labor in the Gulag.
gravenimage says
True, Mortimer.
Anton Filipenkov says
The main differense between socialism/stalinism and fascism is whether you allow private property on the means of production or not. Actually fascism as ideology was a transformation of marxism. Totalitarian practics unite these leftist ideologies anyway. Suppressing of free speech in particular.
gravenimage says
And under Fascism private property can be seized by the state at any time.
melek-ric says
Antifa aren’t Fascists, and calling them that just puts us on the defensive and plays into their hands. In reality they are Cultural Marxists, an offshoot of classical Marxism which employs Critical Theory to defame, corrode and destroy Western European civilization and replace it with Marxism. As such they are far deadlier than Fascists could ever be, since Fascism is essentially conservative, Nationalistic and Eurocentric.
The Cultural Marxists’ alliance with Islam is purely opportunistic, since the goals of the two ideologies are similar. Antifa will therefore violently oppose any person or group that reveals or criticizes the political goals of Islam, Cultural Marxism, the Frankfurt School or any other allied ideology or group.
We need to raise public awareness of the threat of the “Cultural Marxist” and make it a worse epithet than “Fascist”.
gravenimage says
I agree that Antifa are Cultural Marxists–but their violence and crushing of freedom of speech is indeed quite fascistic.
melek-ric says
Regardless of their particular flavor, all totalitarian movements and their adherents use violence and try to crush freedom of speech. To say that Antifa’s violence makes them Fascistic is to imply that only Fascism has ever used violence as a political tool. No – Cultural Marxism’s violence is quintessentially…Marxist.
gravenimage says
Yes–they are both totalitaria, as is Islam.

totalitarian
Steve says
Antifa ARE fascists in their methods. The do not allow dissent or alternate views, and use violence to shut opposition down. They are totalitarian, anti democratic, anti free speech fascist dictators.
Anton Filipenkov says
Actually fascism is neomarxism. All fascist ideologs were former prominent marxists so it’s quite legitimate to call them fascists.
The European says
Don’t call them Cultural Marxists, call them thugs and bullies, because that’s what they are. Politically indoctrinated and fanaticized people who are neither educated nor intelligent. Most of them never learned a trade, did not attend high school and never obtained a degree from any university. They just hate everything German and everyone who disagrees with them is a nazi or a fascist to them, but they are blinded by leftist propagand and indoctrination to such an extent that they don’t even recognize that they are being used by islamo-fascists and globalist fascists.
Truth is that you cannot argue with them, since they are too stupid to understand rational arguments, and llike many stupid people who can’t win a debate, because they are not smart enough, they resort to violence; they shout you down, they call you names, they slander you, they rough you up, they threaten you, they burn your car etc.
The Antifa are political scum, none of them read Karl Marx, none of them studied the writings of Horkheimer, Adorno or Marcuse.
melek-ric says
“The Antifa are political scum, none of them read Karl Marx, none of them studied the writings of Horkheimer, Adorno or Marcuse.”
I’m sure you’re absolutely correct. However, all the Antifa thugs have been taught and indoctrinated by Cultural Marxist university professors who HAVE read those writings. You don’t have to go all the way to the fountainhead to drink the poisoned water.
I still maintain that we should be calling Antifa something other than Fascists, because otherwise the whole debate bogs down in both sides accusing each other of being the same nasty thing, resulting in nothing but confusion. Since society has now largely imbibed the idea that Right Wing = Fascist/Nazi, we need to change the frame of reference by making “Marxist” at least as unsavory an epithet as “Fascist”.
melek-ric says
I should add that although Antifa employ Fascist tactics and have some Fascist DNA, they obviously don’t follow Fascist ideology and therefore should be identified (and pilloried!) for what they really are.
The European says
Describing the “Antifa” I always find it quite inappropriate to call them “fascists.” Certainly, they are using fascist-like methods, but that doesn’t make them fascist, since they don’t adhere to fascist ideology, but to intolerant and totalitarian lefttist ideologies. If two people are doing the same thing, it is not necessarily the same, because the motives which inspire their actions are different. And you wouldn’t say a knife is an axe, just because their blades are equally sharp.
We should always point out that marxism/communism is not less evil than fascism. Historically, marxism/communism were even more successful than fascism, and they lasted much longer, and still exist in North Korea. Marxism is just more seductive than fascism and people usually don’t see how evil it really is at first glance. It always wears the mask of humanity, its catchwords are social justice, human progress, brotherly love, and only a few might not agree that those who are opposed to such noble goals must be done away with -in one way or another.
Cultural marxism is marxism minus stalinism and warlike communism, but it comes from the same source, and at any moment it can become as violent, intolerant and totalitarian as historical marxism/communism have been. Actually, Cultural Marxism is already going down that road: Freedom of speech is in danger, patriots are demonized and persecuted, the leftist political establishment tries to intimidate dissidents by employing these Antifa-clowns, censorship is imposed and the press is more or less forced into line.
EU does more and more ressemble the old USSR and leftists and Cultural Marxist are very likely to commit the same sins their ideological forefathers had committed in the past when 100 million people were killed for the “higher good” of marxism/communism.
As far as the “Antifa” is concerned, one should indeed rip off their masks and show how ugly, ridiculous and stupid they are, but do not overrate their intellectual capabilities.
gravenimage says
With all respect, The European, the idea that all Antifa members are ignorant high-school dropouts who do not understand their own communist and anarchist ideology seems unlikely. They are quite influential on college campuses.
The European says
Maybe I didn’t make myself clear. Look: There are dumb leftist and there are smart leftists.
Those leftists who handle and mastermind the Antifa are certainly not “ignorant high-school dropouts,” they understand their own Totalitarian creed, they know very well what they are doing and they wouldn’t be in a position of power if they were just ignorant half-wits.. But those thugs and bullies on the streets who are trying to disrupt every meeting of the AFD, intimidating political opponents and beating them up, vandalizing cars and department stores, throwing stones and Molotow-cocktails at police officers are the “rank-and-file of the Antifa” they are the stooges and henchmen of a totalitarian political class which profess Marxist ideologies, and their IQ is not very high -to put it mildly
Every totalitarian system is evil – be it Communist/Marxist, right wing or Islam. I think, we can agree on that. But totalitarian evil has many faces and we should recognize each of them for what it is. Marxist evil is Marxist evil and nor Fascist. Supremacist Islam is supremacist Islam’s evil and not Fascist or Marxist, and far-right Racist evil is what it is and not Marxist or Islamicist.

OK
Walter Sieruk says
In both Germany and America this “cultural war” between the conservatives, of the Right , and the vicious enemies of the far- left , Antifa which is the Marxist /Islamic alliance also called the Red /Green alliance . Those Antifa hooligans do poses a danger. Hooligans they actually, for the have proven this, many over by their actions violence and mayhem. Those violent, criminal and lawless characters who compose Antifa are have also proven by their own behavior that they are people of a very low intelligence level. For intelligent people are don’t carry on in awful violent ways .People of intelligence use reason and logic by lobbying wit petitions Therefore people of intelligence , reason and logic the Antifa hooligans are not with their vicious assaults chaos , mayhem ,vandalism and other forms heinous violence
In sum , in this Cultural War the brutal ruffians of Aftifa are , somewhat of ,a reminder of the 1979 movie which is entitled TIME AFTER TIME .In which the hero in that movie said “The first man to raise his fist is the man who has run out of idea’s” So those of Antifa and other of the radical left are those in this cultural war are those men who “have run of Idea’s”
In addition, about those violent men who compose Antifa with their Antifa /Islamic alliance which is also known as the Marxist /Islamic or the Red /Green alliance . The Antifa ruffians are blind to the reality that it’s only a matter of time before the jihadists turn violently against them after using the Antifia people as their “useful idiots” Meaning their stooges and tools to further and fulfill their Islamic agenda. What fools those Antifa members are!

Why did they have to cancel? The police were there
Alarmed Pig Farmer says
I’ve always said that leftism has a strong natural affinity for Molsems because they like the same things. Central control, controls on speech and even thought, a penchant for violence, the works. So here we have the facist thugs from Antifa shutting down free speech on a German campus. I wonder if these guys got one of those fancy degrees in Civil Protest at Berkeley. You just know the Moslems are deeply pleased at the Infidels doing the dirty work for the hairy ones. And the Mozzies must laugh out loud at the utter stupidity of the leftist liberal progressive globo-socialists doing the Moslem Man’s dirty work.

Yes–horrible story.
Walter Sieruk says
The appropriate way for the police to handle the hostile, vicious and violent Antifa hooligans if by the Law enforcement officers using the strong power of force . This is because the language of brute force is the only language those Antifa thugs will understand. For those lawless ruffians who compose Antifa will not respond to reason of logic. In other words, to even try to reason with those Antifa character is like trying to teach algebra to a rabbit .
Furthermore,those Antiifa thugs are awful and many of them resist with and even fight with the police .Those Antiia hooligans who are ,no doubt , godless men are too ignorant to know that the Bible teaches “Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers .For there is no power but God : the powers that be ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power , resisteth the ordnance of God : and they that resist shall receive to themselves a damnation.” Romans 13:1-2. [K.J.V.]
Therefore those Antifa ruffians with all their resisting the police as well as all their lawless violence and mayhem will only receive severe punishment for their evil actions
