Beating the Fascists: The authorised history of Anti-Fascist Action
- Thread starter cogg
- Start date
And...??
There are quite a lot of Anontifa types out there. While I'm not going to have a pop at anyone who's actually going to make the effort to get out there and have a go, their efforts are generally drunken and shambolic. They tend to go in for inappropriate black block as well.

And you don’t hand them a victory on a plate. Quite difficult to mingle and make decisions on what to do when you’ve already identified yourself by virtue of your costume though.

Utterly embarrassing. Like much of the footage you see from US antifa, it only helps confirm the soft student stuff the far right likes to tell itself. Gives them confidence etc.

Turned over by a bunch of blokes who wouldn't have looked out of place at a 1980s/90s Federation of Conservative Students gathering
I'm not personally embarrassed by it. There's a lot of people out there doing 'Anti fascism'. If people who know better want to step up and offer guidance or training then please crack on.

Is this - Anontifa - a term in use within the expert community?

Nah, not passing non certified stuff as own.

What is it supposed to signify?
Anonymous types doing antifascism...??? (At a guess)
It's a shorthand term for the 'Antifa' subculture (as distinct from the group under discussion a couple of pages ago). The subculture is pretty internet based and emerges from the leftish bits of Anonymous and Occupy. Tends to be very heavy on 'black block' imagery, pictures of knuckledusters with ACAB written on them etc etc and generally experiences a nasty shock when they meet the far right.

As I have said many times before there is no way I am standing with those antifa tits they are soft as ripe plums and if I am confronted by fascists I want to be in a well organised group who have done their recon and know what the plan of action is, not be amongst uni, veggie types who have all the gear but no idea and run at the first sign of an attack by some Gen id dick heads. My last demo with those idiots was at Tower Hill where the "charge of the light brigade" ended with over 200 hundred kettled and arrested. From the video of the B of S it would appear nothing has been learnt in the five years since I last went to physically confront fascists.

I should add the last time I physically confronted fascists with the sterotypical Antifart types.
On the plus side, those detained got some nice payouts for wrongful arrest. Not every day that happens.
Last time you did anything at all you mean.
Yes rather regretting using experience and nimbleness to dodge that one.

I came across the video on You Tube. First time I seen it since this documentary - 100% White - was first aired on C4 circa 2000.
Thought it would be of interest to some on here. I'm sure some of the contributors to this thread came across these 3 at some stage back in the day.

It seems that even contributors to this thread must be protected from fascist contagion? Safe spaces and so on. Of course in the real world that across Europe the far-right are increasingly visible (indeed impossible to ignore) is entirely coincidental.

how curious that the last time you went out there were these mass arrests but nothing on a similar scale since. please stay away.

Is there a point there straining to get out?
Removed from YouTube which could be because the uploader removed it themselves or YouTube did for intellectual property violations.
More likely to be a copyright issue surely?

Dong!!!! Wrong there have been mass arrests at demonstrations of anti fascists since I last attended amongst antifa.
Are you always this childish with your remarks?

jesus mary and joseph, it looks like you fell out of the stupid tree and bashed your head on every branch.
did i say there had been no mass arrests since? er no.
i said there had been nothing on a similar scale ie nothing on a scale of hundreds.
incidentally, that was london anti-fascists, part of the anti-fascist network, and not antifa. you're full of fail.

Well there haven't been, not on that scale. That was the largest mass arrest in the Met's history.
It was a gamble and it nearly worked . As it turns out there have been substantial pay outs to all those arrested.
Which mass arrests are you talking about Flying Pig?
