Both Antifa and Neo-Nazis are violent authoritarians who are opposed to individualism, liberty, and democracy. You're just replacing one evil with another.įurthermore, it empowers the Far-Right and grants them 'victim' status, which we know is a very useful tool in this political climate.
Using one kind of violent radical authoritarianism to fight another kind of violent radical authoritarianism makes no sense. I don't care if the people they protest are actual Nazis they have a right to Free Speech and to express their opinion, so long as they do not commit acts of violence.
They use violence and intimidation as a political tool to silence people of opposing views who are not being violent themselves. I was very shocked to learn that this is an unpopular opinion, after an exchange in another post.
