That's not decentralized
lots of facebook groups
patreon campaigns
I think that's why they arent really called terrorists because there are like 4029 antifa groups
yeah there's groups/chatrooms/forums/discord servers where they organize stuff
semi-decentralized
Antifa was allowed to run wild and initiate violence by the authorities in Charlottesville, too.
And they could be different
yeah semidecentralized
Why there isn't an equalivent group on the other side that's decentralized
lol
most on the right dont really hide their faces because i think they know they arent doing anything wrong in defending themselves from these violent fucks
yeah
That should be a campaign, demasking
yeah there was a bill introduced actually
i THINK in portland?
not sure
somewhere in the west coast
the demasking act
not this one though
although it's great
rooting out terrorism starts with rooting out domestic terrorists
Lets hope that someone actually does something against Antifa....
They are the ones that will start the war - and be decimated within the first hours of the war

There are anti-mask laws in many U.S. states and the District of Columbia.[1]
New York State's anti-mask law was enacted in 1845, to provide for public safety after disputes between landlords and tenants.[2]
Many anti-mask laws date back to the mid-20th century when states and municipalities, passed them to stop the violent activities of the Ku Klux Klan, whose members typically wore hoods of white linen to conceal their identities.[3][4]
In the 21st century those laws have been applied to political protesters such as those affiliated with the Occupy Movement or Anonymous – wearing Guy Fawkes masks.[5][6][7][8]
In some areas motorcyclists have been arrested using anti-masking laws.[9]

These laws have been challenged on the grounds that they violate the guarantees of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution to free speech and free association. Some courts have weighed freedom of speech against the public safety interest, and upheld such laws. For example, the Georgia Supreme Court found the law constitutional on the grounds that the wearing of the mask was an act of intimidation and a threat of violence, which is not protected speech.[10] That law has exceptions for holiday celebrations, theatre performances, and occupational safety; the ruling makes it unclear if someone is violating the law if they wear a mask without the intent to threaten violence.

A three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit upheld a New York law on the ground that wearing a Ku Klux Klan mask did not convey a protected message beyond that conveyed by wearing a hood and robe.[2]
