I don't believe in banning groups because of their speech. Banning or prosecuting groups or people because of criminal actions is another matter. However, the left now defines speech as equivalent to physical violence. That's the justification Felarca's BAMN gives for her group stabbing and beating people, and so do Antifa whenever they gather enough wits to speak, which is rare.
We should give Antifa the appropriate amount of attention they deserve for their criminal activities and not a free pass on political violence because of the existence of a tiny percentage of discredited racists, while lumping anyone conservative into that extreme end of the spectrum to be vilified for thought crimes for expressing opinions.
I hear you.
I watched the full series on post-slavery from the History Channel you put on the other discussion a few months ago and I watched as much of the KKK video as I could stomach that you just posted. That stuff disgusts me and winds me up. Saw some of Shoah about 30 years ago. It was difficult to watch.

It's important for me to add that I'm not really concerned about the KKK, white nationalists, or Nazis because of their threats or actions toward black people. Well, I don't think it's special to stand up for my supposed "race." That would be normal self-defense, and there'd be nothing noble or moral about standing up to them. Instead, I think about two groups of people. First are the white people who've sacrificed their lives for black people and others. They're my heroes. I told you. I can name names. Anyway, the second group are the people who fought the Nazis and were killed before they knew the war was won. I ain't mad at nobody, but I owe those people big time. As much as I can at my age, I got their backs. So, I'm more ... piqued at the "Jews will not replace us" and the Nazi flag than I can every be with Antifa or communists. Post your videos. Watch Shoah.
