Wouldn't consider it stupid to take down a Confederate statue and sit for the camera with your head held up high but whatever

I would consider it stupid to take down a statue of Karl Marx (assuming this is in America) and sit for the camera with your head held up high for the exact same reason: you look like a loving idiot celebrating the destruction of art and property for the sake of circlejerking over your ideology.

There's something admirable about that. They weren't willing to hide their faces and run away.

or maybe they're just loving stupid. the one on the rights already arrested

It's pretty bad how some random girl gets arrested for taking down a statue and yet these guys are probably still out in the open

Easier to identify the girl when she makes a point of showing her face to the camera. Once these guys are identified they'll be arrested, loving obviously.

Some guys are getting a bit shook

Yeah, I can agree that Antifa is doing the left a disservice. It's social activism for people who are too stupid or impatient to change the system the way that it's supposed to be changed in a democratic society. Plenty of the people out there throwing bricks and spraypainting stuff probably didn't even register to vote.

Can you blame them? There's certain stuff that just can't be done through our political system, because it's not in the interest of either party. For example, campaign finance reform or a voting system that isn't FPTP.

Actually these guys could use an 8th person
