@stevewfolds@autonomysolidarity
I was raised by Anti-fascist parents who were in the Army in Europe in WWII, teachers and acquaintances, served there & in the Pacific
Дими́трийoooOOoo. we've got a logo now, cool.
Justin Crozer@autonomysolidarity Antifa? Never heard of it until now but I’m going to make a calculated guess and say it’s anti fascist?
@justincrozer Yeahh! simply anti-fascist people are meant!
@autonomysolidarity is it a proper organisation or is it just an abbreviation? Regardless I can get behind it.
@justincrozer just an abbreviation! We don't even know the person who created the meme and feel addressed. How are we supposed to be a group? We are simply all anti-fascist people! #Antifa = Against fascism
Conny Nasch@autonomysolidarity @justincrozer Antifa = Pro Life
@autonomysolidarity ah okay. I didn’t know if it was like Amnesty International or something. — which I support by the way.
dragonfrog@justincrozer @autonomysolidarity Amnesty International is a great example of an antifa organization, but there are many others.
Ilka 🌐@justincrozer The term antifa, short for anti-fascist, has roots dating back to the 1920s and 1930s, originating in Europe during the rise of fascists. It is not a "group" or "organisation" as Felon 47 tries to make it out, it is a term to describe a mind set. Much like "art lover" or "coffee drinker" - there is not one single group you could pin down as "the art lovers", but of course there are many groups that like art.

Antifascists would fit nicely on the fascist hate list as well.

@Aagje_D_Vogel and anarchists and queers and trans people and indigenous etc etc......
Drey@Aagje_D_Vogel so much would fit, it actually doesn't fit because the room runs out. 😝 What I hope ppl will understand: fascists hate so much, they eventually belong to the group fascists want to nihilate. If ppl understand it is not "the others" but their own skin that is in the game, they won't ever again vote for the fascists "to teach democrats a lesson".

MidgePhoto@autonomysolidarity Fascists deny individual choice, morals, opinions.
@autonomysolidarity good start. I suggest to use a smaller font and create 2 collums on the left, as there are many very important aspects missing. If you put "hate" to the healdine, you save up one line & that way gives you 2 more words. Suggestions: Women, equality, cultural expression, freedom of speech, intellectualism, science, independant media, LGBTQ+, peace, empathy, education, health care, individualism, human rights...
If one reads this, they will understand they are 1 of the hated.

🟥 Eveline Sulman 🇳🇱🇪🇺🇺🇦@Ilka4You @autonomysolidarity you can use all the words that are on the Trump list of forbidden words... 🤔
@Ilka4You let‘s go!
@Ilka4You oh wow. cool.
Can we use that too? Thanks a lot 😅 🖤
@autonomysolidarity sure, it is yours 😍
@Ilka4You You are great 🤩 😘
@autonomysolidarity thank you! it was my pleasure 💖 If it helps to make ppl understand, I am more than happy.
@Ilka4You That's exactly how we should all see it. But it's rather rare. Accordingly, thank you 😊🖤🏴
@autonomysolidarity thank you very much, your words mean a lot to me. 🤩
@autonomysolidarity btw, you did the work, I just added 😃
@Ilka4You Oh. That's probably a misunderstanding. The work made @Nigel_Purchase 😅🙏🖤

Juffo-WupThere is a difference here.
For ANTIFAs hate normally does not mean Concentration Camps for your enemies. 🤷

Kid Mania@autonomysolidarity
The word "ANTIFA" is the enemy's word. I refuse to use it. I am ANTIFASCIST.
I once heard a right-wing commentator tell his audience the word antifa meant Anti-Family.
I notice newspaper and media use the word antifa instead of antifascist.
I will NEVER use the word "antifa". I will ALWAYS force them to use the word Antifascist.
Are we really this lazy? The word is ANTIFASCIST.
@clintruin @autonomysolidarity - You are 100% correct. Thank you.
an_believable@clintruin
What?
First time I hear/read s.o. stating "Antifa" as an enemy's word 😅
Maybe the word is used different, where you come from?
In Germany (and as I know also in some other European countries) "Antifa" is a self-designation. Here it has a long history:
It was used already by the "Antifaschistische Aktion" around 1930 as an abbreviation of their own name.
Latest since the 1980s "antifa" became a commom self-designation and/or part of the name of (mainly autonomous) antifascist groups.
Antifa is also a common abbreviation of the term Antifaschismus, but more it is used as term for groups or the movement.
So members of the Antifa are all antifascists, but not all antifascists are member of the Antifa 😉
So in Germany it's not at all an enemy's word (but of course right wingers are trying to defame and criminalize Antifa here, too).
@an_believable
I can't speak to German usage or German antifascists. Obviously that is an enormous topic.
I can speak to North American usage. In North America, as I've stated, the word is being used to confuse and distract. This is why I feel the word has taken on negative connotations, in English, in North America.
As stated above, if a fascist can use the word to to tell millions of Americans the word means anti-family...see what I'm saying?
@an_believable @clintruin the word Antifa has only been alienated recent by the Felon 47 & his goons & is only seen as such in USA, more & more used to alienate by other fascist countries though. His media presence make it sound like an orga. in his eyes worth hunting - only in USA. The world still uses the word as described by @an_believable - so the majority of the world has not been brain washed yet. Yet! It is really hard to escape the constant flood of Felon 47 BS.

@Ilka4You @an_believable
So let's make it simple:
(For the English-speaking in the States and Canada)
Only use the word Antifascist. Do not use the made up word Antifa.
@clintruin the world keeps on going whether USamericans like it or not. They will have to adjust or be very unhappy &/or offended a lot - their choice.

Catbrainz 🇱🇧🇦🇲🏳️🌈@autonomysolidarity A centrist: "they are both equally bad 😩"
Torf und Schnee@autonomysolidarity I like the simplicity, but the totalitarian legacy of my country of origin dictates one important question: "who decides who will be called 'fascist'"?
Ulmo@torf @autonomysolidarity It’s simple, too. Totalitarianism is one thing—it’s common on both sides of the political and social spectrum—but fascism is nothing more than the most predatory practices of colonialism, only carried out internally (against the population of the country where that fascism exists).
@Ulmo @autonomysolidarity you've probably haven't got the question. It is well described what fascism is. But the question is who decide who is a fascist.
In the Soviet Union, you've legally got freedom of speech (no kidding, read the constitution!!). But if you ever tried to exercise it *for real*, you was begging for criminal charges for "anti-soviet propaganda", which may have resulted in execution by shooting, long-term imprisonment or forcible treatment in a "psychiatric" (i.e. mind-killing) facility.
Somehow similarly, now we see a lot of folks who pretend to "protest" against "Israeli fascism" by killing random Jews in their cities.
@torf @autonomysolidarity How power is exercised is one thing. The ideological basis for that exercise is quite another.
The question is not who decides what fascism is, but rather what it is based on the behavior of those acts and people who follow that logic, which has been extensively studied.
In the political and social sphere, fascist thought:
- Rejects democracy, equality, and reason, replacing them with irrationalism, militarism, extreme nationalism, and the cult of violence.
- Is based on the belief in the natural inequality of human beings, the superiority of certain races or nations, and the need for internal “cleansing” and external expansion to restore national glory.
In the economic sphere:
- Rejection of free markets and efficiency-based productivity, replacing them with brute force and capitalist accumulation through exploitation and conquest.
- Resources are seized by force, not through the market, and production serves imperialist expansion, not the common good. This culminates in predatory war and genocide, as occurred under Nazism and Italian fascism and currently with the U.S. and Israel, for example.
Fascism and supremacism are twin brothers; the only difference is that in the former, the state is controlled and actions are taken in its name. In supremacism, state involvement is not necessary.
LevkaWe’re beyond the name calling phase. What’s next?
oldguycrusty#Antifa = "Fascism is bad, and should be avoided".

Why in the world would any American, devoted to our democracy, be against Antifascism?!

gerdek@autonomysolidarity Super. Sent it to all the fascists.
@autonomysolidarity I don't like feeling hatred, so I choose not to feel it at all. If I do feel hatred, it's because of me, not them.
EarlSo both groups hate some of their fellow human beings. It is not a noble position to take. It's like sports, where fans are crazy for one team, ignoring the fact that both teams are composed of the same thing: people.... They are simply wearing different uniforms. But this is more serious than sports.
Could you now explain the inverse:
Who do they LOVE?
jfml - Jonas Laugs@Earl @autonomysolidarity Easy. Just copypasta everything fascists hate (incl. the addendum, you can also add stuff like animals, nature, the planet etc. to your own liking) into the antifa love column and write rich old white dudes(tm) into the fascists love column, done.
Do you automatically hate white men with wealth?
If you examined WWII records, I think you would see there were men of this class imprisoned in Nazi concentration camps. So, no, men would not automatically be "loved" by fascists for simply belonging to a certain demographic.
Dudula the Dud
@Earl @autonomysolidarity I am one of these radicals that think noone actually needs more money than a random absurdly high amount, let's say a million USD. That there are many that have much, much more and at the same time people are actually starving to death makes me kinda hate rich people, yes. If you are a decent person and get a lot of money you would share your wealth to lessen the suffering of others.
@jfml
I understand your point that men with wealth could alleviate much suffering. If they make no effort, there is something wrong with their heart.
Some men with wealth do alleviate suffering, and that is why God blesses them to have more.... so they can distribute to the poor.
Keep in mind that there are many black people who are rich. Every race has its millionaires.
Age and race are not requirements to be a millionaire.
