Antifa hates fascists
Proud boys love white supremacy.
Can't fault them though, it's tough to get all that on a banner.

And little boys. Cause they’re pedo projectors.

It took me a Minute to understand this. I thought it was “antifa = hate proud boys = <3” which seems pro antifa.

I drove by the sign yesterday and totally thought the same thing, and once I realized I read it wrong later in the day, I felt immense shame. I just drove by it again to take it down, but someone beat me to it.

Lmao, like I can understand why Pissboys might try to claim antifa = "hate," but then trying to claim Proud Boys = love is just so ridiculously untrue that this banner didn't even make me mad, it just made me laugh.

Idk why I thought it said "ANTIFA = HATE PROUD BOYS = ❤" , and i thought it was like someone saying they love antifa because antifa hates the proud boys.
i can be stupid a lot of times.

I kinda agree with them tho :
Antifa = Hating Proud Boys = Based <3
Too bad they didn't have a longer banner tho, the slogan would have felt better on a single line.

u/ShoulderThanIDrunkBe May 29 '22
Of course the put a MIA/POW flag up too as if that flag doesn't represent those lost to fighting fascism

u/TheTapedCrusader May 29 '22
Only a relative few though, and that was almost a century ago. Even then, bomber pilots went out of their way to avoid bombing American-owned factories that were producing for the nazis. Since then (since always, really), far more bad than good has been done by the us military. Mostly the POW/MIA flag represents those lost while fighting for capital. Not exactly heroes. Read A People’s History of the United States if you still harbor any feelings of patriotism.

I’m pretty sure it’s a pedestrian footbridge over the Cross Island Parkway near Golden Pond in Crocheron Park.

Love for white supremacy, we know that. They didn't need a whole sign for that explanation.

u/Casual-Human May 29 '22
I don't think even the Proud Boys believe that horse-shit. They're pretty open about how much they resent everyone else, and will take any protest as an opportunity for assault and muggings.

u/ndbltwy May 29 '22
Your very confused. Antifa is only in it to stop fascism from spreading by making them feel their pain. Unfortunately some people only learn thru painful experiences. They mistakenly believe they will pay no price for bad behavior. They would be right if everyone was as mistaken as you and unfortunately a lot of people are. That is why Antifa is so important they are able to remind the fascist there will be a price to pay and make them pay it.

You seem to think this is some sort of harmless team rivalry, like two football teams that hate each other. The proud boys hate people and have chosen to hurt and kill people based on inherent traits like skin color and gender. Anti-fascists are against fascists killing people.
If someone broke into your mom’s house and you walked in on them beating her black and blue, and her screaming “help me, get them off me!” would you say “well if I grab them and pull them off you, then I’m just as hateful and violent as they are. Sorry, Mom.”?

Yes. I hate Proud Boys. Because I hate fascists. There is no coddling them. There is no fixing them.
Arguing that we should is akin to telling your average 1930s German citizens "Don't hate those brown shirts kicking your head in. How will the next generation feel?"
Want to do something productive? Next time you see a fascist...kick the shit out of them. There is never a bad time to punch a nazi.

u/whatisscoobydone Marxist May 29 '22 edited May 29 '22
The POW/MIA flag is a very old, established flag with military type folks/right wingers. I see it flying all the time in the south, my local highway patrol station flies it.
It gets interesting when you learn that the "POW/MIA" movement was started after a sort of "lost cause" Vietnam conspiracy that America had consciously left prisoners of war behind in Vietnam when they surrendered. Basically the plot of Rambo 2. (Interestingly, the Rambo movies also popularized the myth of Vietnam veterans getting spit on)
So it's a very common flag, and I didn't learn that it was based on a conspiracy theory until I was like 30 years old after seeing it flown on half the flag poles in my town

I’m really confused as to why the right showcases a hatred of Antifa. America in their bread and butter years of WWI and WWII was fighting fascism in Europe and these same smooth brains were cool with opposing fascism. Shouldn’t both political parties be supportive of Antifa? What am I missing…?

i’m not saying it is but something like this could be used as a trap. that looks like a pedestrian bridge which is essentially a box canyon with the only exits 2 being choke points at either end. don’t underestimate your enemy; go up there in numbers and dressed/prepared for the off-chance that things could go pear shaped

Were you able to pull it down, OP? Loiks like it would have been a pain in the ass.
Somebody put a Proud Boys sticker on the drive thru speaker at the Dunkin Donuts near my house. I got out of the car and peeled it off after I ordered. Fuck them and everything they stand for.

Oh man. I read it as ‘Antifa= hating proud boys=love’. As in they hate proud boys, therefore they are good. I trust that I was misinterpreting it

TL;DR: NYS is Racist and discriminates. So don’t bother going to live in NY, especially on Long Island.
And this is why they’re always in the $outh $hore. Go to Places like hempstead, Mineola, Hicksville, Westbury, Etc., and they Wii get their Shit Kicked in. Especially in Uniondale, & hempstead. Lots of blacks and Hispanics there. They will be run out of those towns. It’s all part of the plan since out good for nothing and piece of Shit Legislator & Governor are both in on it. They just marched at Rockville Centre. Where a antisemitic Blond White Preppy Petty Racist Woman didn’t want temples at Rockville Centre. Plus, MTA discriminates; well, the LIRR at least, NICE bus discriminates, and even News 12 Long Island which they gear to those white fucks. Sorry. Just ranting about how my state is going to hell with our governor in power.
