        Antifa hides their faces from authorities because they would otherwise be persecuted by the state. Patriot Front has the backing of the state (many of them are police themselves), they’re hiding their faces from the people. Antifa are protecting their lives, Patriot Front are protecting their reputation. One is pragmatism, the other cowardice.

          If Patriot Front was a state asset then no one would have gone to jail for Jan 6th.

          antifa originally hid their faces so they could commit crimes and not be identified. Granted now as an enemy of the State hiding their faces is a necessity because mere associating w/ antifa is a crime.

            If Patriot Front was a state asset then no one would have gone to jail for Jan 6th.

            Saying this after they all got presidential pardons is just insulting.

            Granted now as an enemy of the State hiding their faces is a necessity because mere associating w/ antifa is a crime.

            Antifa is an enemy of the state because the state is an enemy of the people. Also, it truly exposes the hypocrisy of right-wingers like yourself when you celebrate guilt by association with an ideological stance (antifa is not even an organized group) after years of proudly proclaiming yourselves as free speech absolutists. You’re libertarians when Democrats are in power, but fascists when Republicans are in power. Pretty convenient for you guys, huh?

            Trump pardoned everyone for Jan. 6, and he’s the Despot In Chief. Will be forever, with the help of Patriot Front. They’re his personal army.

        Most antifa don’t even hide their faces and to the extent they do it’s because the government has labeled it a terrorist organization, so participating in resistance against fascism could get you decades in prison.

        These people face no such risks. They’re just pathetic cowards who want to intimidate others.

          I feel that this might vary region by region. Atleast in my experience in my part of the world most try to obscure their faces.

            Could be true. Depends on how you’re using the term too. I think people who self-identify as antifa might be more prone to masking. Whereas if you include all people who engage in anti-fascist resistance, which includes a lot of normie liberals and various people, I don’t think most of those people are masking.

          Antifascists, in the rare occasions where they need to mask up, hide their faces from the state (incl police) and from neo-Nazi terrorists who have murdered antifascists in the past.

          Fascists hide their faces from their communities. They’re such scumbags that everyday citizens know they deserve to be identified and ostracised for their personality and actions.

            I mean resistance against the authoritarian government has been criminalized forever. Trump has made it a lot worse but it’s not fundamentally different than what was going on in the past.

            But again, most anti-fascists don’t hide their faces anyway and if you watch any footage of their various protests you will see that.

            Care to explain to us how Antifa is organized? Or list some actions they’ve claimed responsibility for? Or are they just another boogey man fox news told you to be scared of?

                I meant their own organizational documents, I couldn’t give a fuck less what this administration has to say about anything or anyone. Find a reputable, organizational document from Antifa. A mission statement, a member list, anything that proclaims itself to be a product of the organization you believe exists.

                And what does it matter which piss baby fascist little boys club I call it? They’re all the same sad, weak, silly little thing.

                Yeah, you’re right, a loose ideological affiliation that encompasses unorganized people fighting against fascism is so much worse than a literal, unabashed, openly white supremacist organized actual nazi hate group that operates masked and anonymously to suppress and harm people who don’t look like them because they don’t look like them.

                How them boots tasting?

                If that man called me a terrorist, I would take it as a badge of honor. It would be like getting hate mail from hitler.

    Look at these cowardly losers. They wanted to murder people for wearing masks to keep from spreading a deadly plague, but today they are too cowardly to show their faces at an event where they are the heroes. That’s how you know that even they understand that what they’re doing is wrong, and they want to hide their identity in case they eventually lose, and then have to answer for their treason.

      It would be more accurate in my opinion to say that they are continuing the American tradition of white supremacist organizations invading cites they don’t live in to intimidate people they hate.
