FBI Labels Anti-Fascists and Anti-Racists as Violent Extremists

I refuse to believe those groups are terrorist organizations because the CIA has never armed them.

So, being pro-democracy means you are a Violent Extremist?

Republicans, at CPAC, loud and clear: "We are all domestic terrorists"

The FBI: "But whatabout antifa?"

Excuses to label you as a criminal so their overreach is justified.

Talk about double speak, being against fascists and racists means you’re terrorist now, LMAO.

FBI has long since been relabeled as the face of the cia, nsa and are the gen pop wranglers.

Call this shit the fuck out for what it is, an attack against Americans of ALL political backgrounds. This is a unified issue, they might only be banging on your neighbors door but you are next.

"Anti-fa" literally means anti-fascist. The allies storming the beaches of Normandy were "anti-fa." The only thing "anti-fa" wants these days is for cops to stop murdering them. Needless to say, I support that position.

Some idiot put that in the list for purely political reasons.

Protests are nice to look at, but they paint free targets on everyone who participates. Conservatism/fascism has never been defeated by pacifism.

If you are motivated to resist fascism/conservatism, arm yourself and train appropriately. Take classes, join left-leaning gun clubs, survival groups and prepper classes. Exercise and learn to fight.

Conservatives have been prepping for years for a war they insist is necessary. They have decided you are their enemy. You cannot change that by protesting.

Radical Centrism wins again

Oh no, what will we do if the FBI targets left-wing activists for insane reasons? They might give the J. Edgar Hoover Building a bad name.

And this is why we need to break the current command chain in domestic and foreign intelligence, we never actually banished the ghosts of the Kissinger days, just let them pick less noticeable successors that still hold the same basic world view.

"Eat the Rich" is now a symbol of extremism.....

That is extremely funny and extremely stupid at the same time. Honestly, after both of those conflicting feelings wore off, I am left in a state of confusion.

I mean, I get it. Just because phrases or symbols are used in extremist movements doesn't make the phrase or symbol exclusively extreme, with some exceptions. (Idiots will look at that "guidebook" and just leverage the FBI classification as a means to reinforce a bias, regardless of the context.)

For example, the Gadsden flag is a part of American history. However, it has also been hijacked for different causes. (I sarcastically see it in its original context as people still holding a grudge against the British, TBH.)

Oh... so the secret police of a fundamentally white supremacist empire that funds and enables fascist terrorism all over the damn planet doesn't like anti-fascists and anti-racists?

Gee... who coulda thunk it?

Explains why they coddle white Trump terrorists

"Stop resisting!"

Often repeated by terrorists appealing to their body cameras.

So starwars is now considered terrorism propaganda, ok

Sounds like something fascists would do.

So they are publicly claiming the agency to be fascist and racist?

If only they would finally arrest the president of Antifa, this would be unnecessary. Richard Antifa deserves to be held accountable!

I label FBI as a waste of space that should be deleted.

TIL I'm a violent extremist.

Man I love having to vote for people who label me a violent extremist. 10/10 government right there.

i found some symbols that represent the real domestic terrorists

To be fair, Senate Bill #4255:

To authorize dedicated domestic terrorism offices within the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Justice, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation to analyze and monitor domestic terrorist activity and require the Federal Government to take steps to prevent domestic terrorism.

They call out white nationalists quite a bit in the domestic terrorism bills.

I just knew all those punk bands were terrorists! Jello Biafra better get a lawyer... \s

Isn't F.B.I. supposed to be called called Meta now?

What does antifa have to do with anarchy? I remember first seeing the symbol at Major League Soccer matches in Seattle in 2009. Lots of Amazon employees of liberal, but somewhat mainstream democratic POVs often raised the symbol. I thought it was just folks that hated racism and fascism,but not necessarily anarchist or socialist.

Federal Bureau of Covering Your Own Ass

Failure Bureau of Insurrection

Ladies, Gentlemen, and Enbies, we are domestic terrorists

the day i woke up terry

The F stands for Fascist

does this get me out of jury duty?

lol, the fact they know some of the imagery was directly opposed to Nazis and still posted this. smh

All cops are bastards, and I believe a black cat absolutely will sabotage this system when the time is right.

Fuck you, FBI. We the American people have got your number too, there are a lot more of us and we know what you look like even when trying to blend in.

You'll drop some of us, but we'll catch you.

This has always been the case with stuff like cointelpro. The FBI's job isn't really to solve crimes but to crack down on things that the powers that be don't like. The FBI and similar organizations need more public oversight and the definitions of terrorism need to be restricted and narrowly defined.

Because businesses will see disrupting like a ceo as "terrorism" etc. The pipeline protests were treated this way.

This is fucked up

So, Trump is now a violent extremist?

Yea, that checks out.

I can't quote Bruce Lee anymore? Be like H2O and evade police, as he is famously known to say.

Of course the number 1 news source broke this story. I read that site everyday in my basement stronghold while wearing my special tin hat.

Fascism Better Investigate YOU.

Is that even a legitimate source?

Is there any proof these groups are anything more than LARPers

Abolish the FBI.

Well, they are. Not saying they're wrong. But they are.

this is what happens when Democrats get power.

This article is commie nonsense:

organization took seven months before they denounced their “Blue Lives Matter” supporters that killed several police officers and injured nearly two hundred more during the January 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol.

None of that actually happened. The only people that died that day were either shot by Capital Police…or had heart attacks from having too much fun.
