The alt-right is in decline. Has antifascist activism worked?

insurrectionarycompassion:

antifainternational:

Short answer: yes.

Liberals spent a lot of energy condemning antifa while doing…what exactly? To fight fascism? Tweets making fun of Trump?

There were even other leftists who spent a great deal of time distancing themselves from antifa.

All I have to say is that making it more and more difficult for these people to have public lives publicly organizing is actually a successful tactic. We shouldn’t let this lull anyone into a false sense of security because this is definitely not the end. Fascism doesn’t just exist at public rallies and needs to be opposed wherever it exists in whatever format and medium they decide to engage in their genocidal and ethnic/racial supremacist violence and politics. At the same time? I hope everyone who spent so long attacking antifa looks really stupid about now.
