I’m baffled as to what the point of this comment is, besides waffling about the virtues of not picking sides for not picking sides’ sake.

i have picked the side that's stopping fascists. but the enemy of my enemy isn't automatically my friend. i do not respect movents who are known for committing arson and battery regularly.

I see your edit above, i see the comments you posted after said edit, and I'm not sure you now actually got what antifa means. Especially the part about it not being a single, coherent organization doesn't seem to get to you.

[–] KpntAutismus@lemmy.world -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

it did. but these smaller, unorganized groups are regularly holding violent protests around my area. and they identify with antifa.

i probably identify with the core values of what it means to be antifascist, but again, i don't want to be seen as extremist and/or violent.

Yeah, sounds about true. All of the groups in your area are only about violence. Sure, bro.
