    The Problem™ with “antifa”,

    is exactly what someone pointed-out years ago, possibly in a movie on some immense protesting done in the US…

    ( update: I think it was in this thing:

    https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0850253/?ref_=nm_flmg_c_55_act

    : )

    You have both the violent nihilists claiming to be “antifa” AND you have concerted-communitarians claiming it, and you have many others, between,

    but the mainstream pseudojournalism media only boosts the violent nihilists’ claim, hiding that there are contradictory claims on the symbol/label,

    exactly the same as it pushes that islamism is what “islam” means, the same as what other regions’ mainstream media does with “christian”, or “jew”, etc.

    exactly the same as throughout the West, “swastika” means nazis, even-though that word, “swastika”, IS SANSKRIT, & it was owned by Hindus, Hopis, Jains, Navahos, & Buddhists, for millenia, … all that “doesn’t count” in the eyes of the West, only the nazis have “valid” owning of the symbol??

    ( I’m a Buddhist skinhead, not a nazi skinhead, and always being accused of being nazi in the 1990’s was insulting: Buddhist skinheads had existed for more than 2 millenia, but “don’t have any validity” in White eyes. )

    TragiComically, you can find, right in the Christian bible, where it differentiates between false-jews & real Jews:

    https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation+2%3A9&version=AMPC

    … but, of course, neither mainstream media, nor the Catholic Church, in its murdering of millions of Jews through the last couple of millenia ( the inquisition holocausted women 1st, Jews 2nd, e.g. and the crusades did alot of evil, including cannibalism, when they were starving while invading, too ) have held that passage to be central to understanding Truth’s perspective, or the gospel of John, for that matter…

    ( John’s attacking was of the “jews”, the false-jews: that is made obvious by his using the term “rabbi” on Yehoshua “Jesus” benJoseph, which doesn’t just mean “teacher”, it means “Jew’s Jew & Teacher”.

    John didn’t have the device of falsifying-quotes, like we, in English, have, nowadays, and many were murdered as a result of the systematic-nonunderstanding that that accommodated. )


    No matter: The Great Filter can’t care what pretence we comfort ours beloved unconscious-ignorances with, can it?

    It’s just a force-of-nature, cornering unconscious-mind-toddlers-with-planet-massacring-technology into exterminating our own kind, faction-on-faction, in an ever-escalating funeral conflagration, right?

    Such a needless planet-waste.

    Objectivity, however, seems to be too-much-to-ask, of our kind.

      While Nazis don’t own the swastika, they are so closely associated that you’re going to make folks upset by flying it and you’re going to make Nazis feel like they are welcome, and the unspoken intent unfortunately doesn’t matter because when it comes to fascists you can’t afford to give the benefit of doubt, nor can you afford to embolden them by making them feel welcome.

      That’s not right or fair, but it’s the way things are. Just like there might indeed be some folks for whom the Confederate flag is associated with their family heritage, but 99% it just identifies racist assholes and attracts the same and makes them feel safe in opening their mouths.

      I grew up a huge fan of Dukes of Hazzard and the General Lee, but now I see nothing but hatred when I see that flag. And if I saw a skinhead with a swastika, I’d get the fuck out of Dodge ASAP.
