State department claims groups in Germany, Italy and Greece ‘conspiring to undermine foundations of western civilization’
The US state department has announced that it will designate four European self-described anti-fascist groups as Foreign Terrorist Organisations, as the Trump administration broadens its campaign against what it portrays as an international wave of leftist violence.
In a public statement on Thursday, the state department said it would designate Antifa Ost in Germany, the Italy-based International Revolutionary Front, and two organisations in Greece – Armed Proletarian Justice and Revolutionary Class Self Defense – as “Specially Designated Global Terrorists … conspiring to undermine the foundations of Western Civilization through their brutal attacks”.
I’m sure they really feel threatened by someone in Europe who they claim did a bombing in 2002.
“The government does not announce that they have become fascist. They announce that anti-fascists are the enemy.”
War is peace.
This is unsurprising, given the GOP has fascist designs and are doing what fascists do: Try to discredit and publically shame those who stand in their way of collapsing their nation into a fascist one. We’ve got to keep on resisting these incompetent chuds.
And now I remembered we’ve got over 3 more years of this garbage to fight through.
You are assuming there will be an election in 3 years.
Or that it will be fair.
Yes, we do…It will be hard, but the thing is that they can’t control us unless we give up. The US is a big place, it would require all of us to comply in advance for these chuds to win. There are many more civilians than in the military members and government combined, if we did a mass flash mob, there would be nothing they could do about it.
Germany, Italy and Greece? I was hoping for an organisation closer to home so I could enroll.
These sound like some random plankton orgs, you can just as well pick a name and start your own
Are they saying that “western civilization” is fascist then?
If Italians don’t know a fascist when they see one, then surely neither do these dingleberries.
