Antifa and RightWing extremist groups are nowhere in the same realm.
After Jan6 the RW media and GOP lie machine has been pushing the narrative that the two are the same.

We call out RW talking points here no matter who posts them. You posted them here. Anti-fascists don’t come out to murder, destroy, and loot. Neither does BLM. Only FOX watchers and GOP voters believe that propaganda.

Are you confusing the destructive anarchists with the anti-fascism left? If so, that’s a mistake on your part. Anarchists have most in common with the RightWing extremist groups.
