A place where comrades can
(1) discuss how best to optimize their physical health and develop “Iron Proletarian Discipline” in a healthy and holistic manner. Including but not limited to weight training, stretching, cardiovascular exercise, meditation, nutrition, sleep, and daily routines with an eye towards cultivating the best habits possible,
(2) share motivational and educational writings or videos; bonus points if the perspective is that of a Communist thinker such as Mao or Fidel Castro, and
(3) discuss the relationship between mental health and exercise.

So, the brownshirts, but under a different flag, and different justification, but with equal fervor. Check.
And I suppose that the Allied soldiers were just the Wehrmacht but under a different flag too by your logic?
If Stalin just followed a debate class and invited Hitler for a heckin epic rap battle, he wouldn't have had to send the Red Army in
I mean, Patton was in the Allies, and you know what he was like
While he's fighting Nazis I couldn't care less what he is like
You seem to equate all of the Wehrmacht (which mainly consisted of very young conscripts, many of them malleable, uneducated and never having come in actual contact with people outside of their direct environment) with the horrible atrocities a powerful elite amongst then chose to carry out. If you do, I pity you. If you don't, you might see the nuance that discredits your own strawman fallacy.
Clean Wehrmacht believer has entered the chat.
gtfo fucking fascist
Paradox of tolerance... or paradox of intolerance? Point is appeasement doesn't work and at the end of the day you have to be intolerant of the intolerant.
Good point. But then again that's also the point the other side uses.
It is unfortunately a valid point. If one side is acting to physically harm you then politely asking them to stop is no longer sufficient.
Former military, so can't say I do not agree in principle. (Though not based on political stance.)
"former" war criminal, that explains it
By all means be my guest and debate the fascists and Nazis who want to eradicate entire races while I will try other ways to defend myself
Like you don't even understand where the Red Warriors (and other antifascists in France) even came from, you look like an absolute fool right now, bumbling around in the dark and hitting furniture every few steps, meanwhile people watch on you with their flashlights. That's how you look.
Fascists used to (they still do, but they used to as well) co-opt everything. They started coming into punk shows which these bands of antifa activists used to go to, and started polluting them with their fascist crap. Then when people complained, the fascists would jump them.
There's a documentary around where ex red warriors explain how they fought against fascists, they used to drive around Paris with baseball bats and other weapons and jump random people or antifascists. They wore jewellery that had edges to inflict damage on a punch. Some of them actually illegally carried guns on them.
I'm still talking about the fascists. What antifascists such as the red warriors did was to finally say enough is enough, we don't want fascists making people scared to go to their shows and have fun, so they organised into their own gang and gave the fascists a taste of their own medicine. And it worked, fascists left the Parisian punk scene.

The same arguments the brownshirts used to beat up communists. I'm not the one looking like un uneducated, indoctrinated fool. It's you.
Which argument is that, and point me to an instance where brownshirts used that argument.
you don't need an argument to beat someone up, just a weapon
the people that attacked fascists are the fascists themselves, i am very intelligent 🤓
🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
Yeah I also believe that fascists and antifascists are morally equivalent. I am very smart.
Lol this guy still looks at surface level politics like a noob
