    Is this thread even still about Antifa or has it been derailed by a discussion on immigration?

    I think it's because its the only topic the "alt right" are able to discuss. They're scared of women and immigrants.

    Whenever I start to wonder if AntiFa may pose a threat, I see posts like this and realize they are helpless beyond hope.

    I'm not a college kid. I asked 20Cent how many we should take in because I wanted to hear from someone who thinks people who question immigration are fascists

    They are just trying to justify racist far right party policies with the "why don't they live in your house" argumemt.

    No in shouldnt, it is about Antifa. I wanted to know from our Pro Antifa posters what their views on immigration were & how many we should take in.

    See that is wrong, so you do think everyone questioning immigration as racist/fascist?

    Why? its an antifa thread, views on immigration are relevant to antifas ideology, thats why it came up

    This whole thread is about immigration.

    There's nothing else to it.

    Neither side has anything to say on Taxes, trade, employment, healthcare.

    this thread has nearly a thousand posts, barely any of them have anything to do with immigration. the point of the thread is to discuss a group using violence and intimidation to shut up people with different opinions, why does that belong in an immigration thread?

    Because the opinions that are being argued over are opinions about immigration.

    Nothing else.

    I don't at all.

    so because antifa violence is pro immigration there shouldnt be a thread to discuss antifa rioting and throwing fireworks indiscriminately into crowds of people they disagree with?

    More generalised ad homimens. Despite calling everybody who disagrees with you an "alt right" like a child, serious questions on how refugees should be housed as dismissed as "far right".

    You have no argument expect personal attacks and abuse.

    My feeling on the refugee crisis is that we should meet our obligations on the 4000 but do so with private housing only, given the existing crisis.

    That's not at all clear from the way you argue.

    You're just parroting the views of one side in an argument over immigration.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,495 ✭✭✭Will I Am Not


    Immigration has really only come up as a topic in the last page or 2.
    Sounds like another attempt to shut down discussion...


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,900 ✭✭✭InTheTrees


    You have no argument expect personal attacks and abuse.

    If you look at the title of the thread I think you'll agree that its purpose is not a reasoned discussion on immigration is it?

    No, its to ridicule an ''organization'' of morons who want to larp as revolutionaries

    hence why it doesnt belong in an immigration thread

    Conversations move on. Btw it's against the charter to moderate this forum unless you are a moderator yourself.

    Haven't called anyone alt right. Calm down snowflake :)

    But back to anti-fa, how come American anti fascism isn't opposed to American imperialism? Where's the protests about Syria? About Yemen?
