If your getting the shit beat out of you dissuades cowardly bigots from these events, well, you did help.

This for any both-sidesy media figures who want to play a game of “The Economically-Anxious Heartlanders just don’t understand these newfangled things happening at their local Smalltown library!”

If they’re so proud, why don’t they engage in any sort of personal hygiene? Look like a couple of rescue dogs who’ve been living in a sewer drain.

Real Anons know that NYC has laws against masked protests. Hopefully they’ll tack a multiplier on his charge for assault while wearing a mask.

I gotta wonder how he thought this was going to go down. This is a community that was famous for physically fighting back against violence from armed police officers, and he expected they’d all pack up their so-called deviant lifestyles and go home because a couple of fascist Cosplayers showed up to their event?

I keep coming back to this statement, and reading others’ comments on it, but I still don’t understand how he thought he was helping or what sort of help he thought he’d offer.

Did he seriously think the families in attendance had been brought to this event against their will or without knowing what it was and that they needed to be rescued?

Mmm, the irony is so very sweet.

By “help” he meant beating the shit out of someone else without consequences. And if he thinks a little punch in the face constitutes getting the shit beat out of him, he’s led a sheltered life.

The sociologisty-undergrad in me wanted to carefully examine my judgements of reactionary suburbs, but I lol’d at “Go back to Long Island”

Well, to be fair, he got punched by the “Anti-Face Eating Leopards Party”.


There has been quite a few measured, defense posturing responses to these fascist across the country by ANTIFA and John Brown Gun Club types. It has had an effect in some areas where their protest numbers have dwindled. Sadly, the cops seem to mostly be protecting these fuckers.
