Fascists Threaten to Burn Down Berkeley Bookstore

[igualitarist]

That is the truth though. All those examples of violence by leftists end up being false flags or trump supporters dressed up as Antifa trying to stir shit.

Police dressed up as Antifa throwing stun grenades: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPg6wD_Vyww


Why should anyone believe the left is violent when there are so many fake examples and false flags? It's pretty funny when you think about it, trump supporters and cops burning down cars and breaking shopping windows, or blocking traffic. They're lucky they didn't get run over yet by their own.

So many examples ? That video holds absolutely no evidence at all and its alex jones' level.

That picture tho is a very ridiculous image manipulation. But thats completely different from a false flag attack.

Just get out of your own dome and search for yourself violences act perpetraded by the far left. Its just bullshit claim all of them are false flags just because "muh wishful thinking"

This extreme polarizarion is making both sides violent, not just your "rival team"

There's no room for that kind of thinking here. Antifa is just "anti-fascist," therefore if you criticize their actions then you're just an apologist for fascism. Funny how words often lose their meaning in polarized times like these. I opened that video expecting to see a skinhead or some kind of brownshirt type, only to find some MAGA meth-head couple arguing with a stereotypical far-lefty type. The word fascism has always teetered on the edge of being a meaningless word that people use as a casual pejorative, but it's easily crossed the realm into pure cliche in the past year.

Didn't take long for this thread to devolve into a heated partisan shouting match between Americans.

Here's an idea: take a chill pill, ignore your hysterical biases for a moment and have a nuanced discussion about issues and beliefs. If your response is: "no, i don't discuss things with nazi facists" or "no, you can't reason with SJW commie crybabies" you might want to add some introspection to that list.

You hit the nail on the head. This is our biggest problem right now. And people don't realize that this behavior is the reason someone like Trump got into office. If people on both sides would just pull their heads out of their asses they'd might see that they are being played by politicians on both sides.

And that they just so happened to have possession of police stun grenades?

Care to explain how Antifa got their hands on riot police equipment?

Did you watch the suggested video from their perspective? Because these ignorant hicks posted their video of their threats. I hope they enjoy jail.

If the Berkeley police are anything like they were with the protests at UC Berkeley last year, anything they do will ultimately be too little, too late. And they'll end up being sued to the hilt for not attempting to prevent a potentially credible threat from being carried out. All this despite threats being neither protected speech nor...well, protected anything.

There's a reason I don't like going into that god awful city.

Yep.
I really hate the circle jerking going on on this forum. People are called out on shit before they actually post things. When you say that you don't care but people are acting like idiots you are a nazi supporter or love antifa.
This forum has really turned to shit since Trump got elected.

[JohnBrown1917]

It has nothing to do with Hillary being unlikable right (worse than trump)? If the dems ran bernie we wouldn't be having this conversation.

Clinton is a cunt, but if she is not far enough to the right for somebody. they are either greedy pricks or racist assholes. So nothing really changes about my statement.

Everything Trumptards whine about that Clinton has done, Trump has done worse.

And the truth...shall set.....you free!

Explains why you're figuratively in chains.

Not condoning this, but I feel there is much missing to the story. It starts with the altercation already in motion, and there are edits and cuts to the video.

So this is what supertony does in his off time

So this is what supertony does in his off time

He runs a left wing bookstore in Berkeley?

[Gorgodeus]

Revolution Books is still around? WTH, Moe's, Half-Price Books, Pegasus and Dark Carnival are all still around. How do they manage to stay in business in the age of Amazon.

Simple. Books, due to their weight to size ratio, are expensive to ship. Meaning you can usually get books cheaper at a brick and mortar store.

[Nasuuna]

Don't mind me, I'm just waiting for the woke independents to come in and condemn this shit.

Don't need to, his teeth condemn him enough.

[Dug]

Nah he puts on larping gear with his plywood shield and stick to go assault college liberals. Has proudly boasted about it before.

[Spiffums]

Given that it's Berkeley I'm going with false flag and BS without even watching the video.

[RyanEX]

Well what do you know, one side attracts the other. Only thing that surprises me is that it took so long for extreme right wingers to make their way to Berkley.

[Tierbook]

Keep in mind that Trump lost the popular vote to her though.

Think about that for a second. Your current president is even less liked than Hillary.

This has more to do with Clinton winning 4.3million votes in California, Even if she had only won by 1.5million votes in California she'd still have won the popular vote.

[Venant]

People have the right to protest, but these guys are like Westboro Baptist levels of retarded. I'd like to know who this guy is and what groups he is associated with, since all this tape does without context is serve to reinforce stereotypes.

lol, i'm not even surprised with this reaction
