    I won't deny those instances, that has happened. However, those are a minute number of them. Sparko, you'll need several hundreds of cases like that per demonstration in order for what you said "Most Antifa are violent" to be true.

    Also, don't forget Charlottesville. It was an alt-righter who drove his car into a crowd of them, causing the death of one. It wasn't Antifa.

    Antifa leaders admit they're willing to physically attack anyone who employs violence against them or who condones racism
    Yes, self-defense is perfectly okay wouldn't you agree?

    People put on the masks so that we can all become anonymous, right? And then, therefore, we are able to move more freely and do what we need to do, whether it is illegal or not.
    I support the right of anonymity.

      So this is a case of you just continuing to ask for more and more evidence, and it will never be enough. But trust me there are a lot more out there, I just don't have the time to go find them all just to convince you.

      I can do the same with the whole "police brutality" thing. You claim it is systemic, and I say it is rare and just a function of the media publicizing the few incidents that happen.

      Can you show me more examples of PEACEFUL Antifa protests than I can of violent ones?

        I actually just asked for evidence of what you said. Are you now denying that you said that "Most Antifa supporters are violent" and have backed down to "Some Antifa supporters are violent"?

          No, I still assert that the main function of Antifa is to cause chaos and do violence. That's what it does.

          Here this is form an Antifa apologist admitting it.
          The argument is that militant anti-fascism is inherently self-defense because of the historically documented violence that fascists pose, especially to marginalized peoplehttps://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/02/u...ifa-trump.html
