AntiFA doesn’t stand for “Anti-Fascist”. It stands for “Anti-Fascist ACTION”.
The last bit is important. Anyone can be an Anti-Fascist but it’s not AntiFA until you’re actually doing something about it.
honestly, demanding that people march into the streets and risk their safety is kinda ableist and sounds like republican boot strap shit
if you’re antifascist you are good and you don’t have to risk your life just to ring in praise from superficial people
That’s not the only action you can take against fascism.
Action =/= Violence
My point was that Anti-Fascism is simply a stance. AntiFA is acting on that stance.
Republican boot strap shit what the fuck?
we’ve reached peak identity politics: somehow it’s bad and ableist to say that we need to actually take ACTION against fascism.
antifa isn’t a fucking identity or a brand. it’s anti. fascist. action.
results are accomplished through ACTION, not through reblogs.. this is the way the world works.
people who take part in anti-fascist action don’t do it “to ring in praise from superficial people,“ they do it because it’s the right thing to do.
if your idea of antifascism only consists of making posts online then it’s not going to be very effective.
