I mean, that’s like how Elon wants to call his new party, the America party. And most likely people who are registered to vote for the America party would be called Americans. And so then if you’re against them what, you’re against America? You hate all Americans?
Like yes, in reality the people who are against antifa are fascists. But that can’t be determined from the name of it! The government has played this trick countless times, naming laws and bills the opposite of what they’re really supposed to do. Like someone introduces a bill called the " children’s online privacy protection" act, but really it’s just some mass surveillance garbage and has nothing to do with protecting children. And then if you oppose the act, and someone says " oh so you don’t want children to be safe online?!1!1!1" like, we all know that’s a really horrible argument. Things can be named whatever they want to be named even if it has no underlying relation to the reality of what they stand for.
Again, at this particular moment in this particular situation, antifa still does really stand against fascism, and the government that hates antifa really does stand for fascism. So we happened to get lucky that the names line up with the reality underneath in this case, but that doesn’t mean that that’s a good line of reasoning in general.
It’s amazing, the amount of bullshit people say in order to deny the obvious.
Anti antifascist = fascist

Not even like it’s a hard algebraic equation right? - either that person is lying or really need to save those braincells for breathing
