Hoaxx.

 

These are the people who tremble in fear of Antifa!  I bet they run from monsters under their bed at night, too!

 

 

Hoax.  From what I can tell, there has always been a profound amount of stupidity here.  Non-trumper posters have just injected a little bit of intelligence here and there lately.  So actually there's probably the same amount of stupid, and now just a little more smart.  


We fear ANTIFA?  Where did you get that from?
 

Intelligence?  Seriously?  
 

Hoax!

Fake!

Link!

Rule#2

 

You mean that little bit of intelligence?

Trump himself.  No noise about the danger of COVID-19 in March (when, as Trump himself acknowledges on the Woodward tapes, he knew of the dangers of that virus) because Trump didn't want to want to "create a panic." https://www.npr.org/2020/09/12/912081447/trump-says-he-prevented-panic-on-pandemic-thats-not-his-usual-approach.  But in September 2020 Trump is voicing and sending alerts about this fictional terrorist organization (that, it should be noted, apparently flourished under Trump's watch, to the extent it is not a hoax) given the grave threat that this imaginary outfit poses to law and order everywhere.  https://www.forbes.com/sites/andrewsolender/2020/09/13/theyll-attack-your-homes-trump-campaign-sends-antifa-alert-to-supporters/#7088d0792a51

 

Face it.  Trump and his followers (the Fa, if you will) quake in fear of Antifa.  They tremble at the mere mention of the name.  Because they never know where these communist arsonists anti-fa people, who now apparently include the formerly venerable Smoky the Bear, will strike next.  It's the only explanation for the myopic focus on the anti-fa during this campaign.

No trembling here, I have been waiting with baited breath and full mags for them to show up.

A useful tool to avoid unnecessary confrontations and wasting time is to take advantage of the "Ignored Users" function.  When put into effect, the "Ignored Users" function will enable you to choose which, if any, content you'd like to filter from your view.  A user can choose to ignore specific content from specific users such as; "posts", "messages", "signature", "mentions", and "shout box".

 

To activate the "Ignore Users" function, you can just follow these easy steps:

 

1) Click the drop down menu in the top right corner of your screen

2) Click on "Account"

3) Click on "Ignored Users"

4) Add new user to ignore using the search function

5) Select user

6) Check the boxes of the content you'd like to ignore from the user

7) Enjoy an adult beverage and relax

 

There are many clues that can indicate it might be a good idea to start ignoring specific users.  A few of them are listed here:

1) A specific user is acting in a threatening manner

2) A specific user is not contributing to the topic in a thread

3) A specific user is always talking about the same thing, in every thread

4) A specific user is unable to have a reasonable discussion

5) When you see a post from a specific user, you get the same feeling as when you smell a terrible fart in a public setting

6) You often get SHE (second hand embarrassment) for a specific user

7) After a long back and forth with a specific user, you ask yourself, "why did I just waste precious time in my life engaging with that person"

 

Hope this helps, happy discussions and remember, "Ignored Users" is your friend.

 

 

LOL, it's getting so dark!! LOL

I don't see my name on that list.  I don't know whether to be offended or insulted.   :unsure:

It’s pretty easy to stay off the list. Just engage in honest, healthy debate. There are plenty of people on here willing to do so. The Trump bashing is tiresome. Feel free to espouse the positives about YOUR position and YOUR chosen preferences / programs / candidate. You’ll find it to be far more intellectually stimulating than the “I know you are but what am I?” nonsense.

Hoax.  Trumpers are the only ones worried about Antifa.  The rest of us realize it’s another crackpot conspiracy theory borne of political expedience and necessity because the fat guy’s firewall of gullibles is starting to crack.

Double digit IQ is not "injecting" intelligence but could help us understand why people are stupid enough to think Trump told them to "inject" bleach.... ...

I can see where some might think that, but that is not really true.

There are some "posters" here with er, multiple personalities (accounts). These Sybil posters are not here to contribute, they are here to stir the pot in a very unconstructive manner.   Sometimes, they hijack a thread with stupidity, name calling, and general drivel.  You keep hitting someone and they are bound to react. And like with some unsportsmanlike calls on the field, it is the person who reacts, not the antagonizer, who gets the penalty.  Better to simply ignore those antics.

 

 

The queen of herd immunity group think....Atta girl!

Keep making threads about 1 person vs a pandemic and you’ll get there too.

 

But I would suggest not being offended or insulted by a random person on the internet saying they aren’t listening to you.

If there was something to fear from these fools, you wouldn't need to post your usual

lying and inciting to pump them up..fact is they are cowards who will only attack senior citizens

or in a large wolf pack.

Almost forgot, bring em on.

Good point.  If there’s nothing to fear from these fools, then why is Trump so worried about them?  Maybe it could be that Antifa is just another Trump hoax designed to gin up the morons in his base!

Figures about psychology.  I don’t know the first thing about it.  

 

Obviously.  Why you don't have a clue on how to discuss/debate with people.  But you'd think a lawyer would be well versed in psychology.   Hmmmm.....  I guess I know as much about what you do as you do about me.  That's fair.

https://www.adl.org/resources/backgrounders/who-are-antifa

 

These violent counter-protesters are often part of “antifa” (short for “antifascist”), a loose collection of groups, networks and individuals who believe in active, aggressive opposition to far right-wing movements. Their ideology is rooted in the assumption that the Nazi party would never have been able to come to power in Germany if people had more aggressively fought them in the streets in the 1920s and 30s. Most antifa come from the anarchist movement or from the far left, though since the 2016 presidential election, some people with more mainstream political backgrounds have joined their ranks. 
 

So according to the ADL they not only exist they are violent.  
 

I will add they’ve gone far beyond counter-protesting.  Who is are the counter-protesting?

Interesting how this “terrorist organization” bubbled for years and only reared its head as Trump needed a new foil to win re-election.  Assuming anti-fa is not a hoax, I guess the only thing left to do is question why Trump didn’t get it nipped in the bud earlier.  

 

Also, I realize there is a lot of concern about this anti-fa thing.  Do you also worry about the fa?  I mean, without the fa we wouldn’t have the anti-fa.  So it seems like the fa should be a problem for you as well.  Please advise. 

 

Also, if you have any tips on spotting threats like communist anarchists, anti-fa agitators, or even the fa, please let me know.

So are you suggesting that ANTIFA is a creation of Trump’s?
 

So you bring up a very good point. ANTIFA is a hoax because they are fighting an invisible enemy.  They wouldn’t know fascism if it hit them in the face.. This is why I’ve always considered them for what they really are. Anarchist.  Plain and simple.  


Now on to the point of my post. What makes you think they are a hoax.

It’s not that difficult. You can’t argue against my point so you respond with nonsense. 
 

I hope you fall in.

So Anti-Fa is actually Pro-An, and there is no Fa?  I get so confused with all of your hoaxy conspiracy theories.  Could you please clear this up for me?

You are not confused. You nailed it in your first sentence. How would you define them?
