Neither of those statements were made by me.

Please provide exact quotes and a direct link to where you obtained those quotes.

Having differing ideas to me is ok (even good!). Having different opinions about the same statement is also totally ok. But you are saying I said things that I know for a fact I never said.

That borders into Libelous territory.

Correct. Maybe you just need to re-read the source? Are you upset because the headline / title does not contain all the nuance of the video itself?

@karabiner @purism @gabriele@social.lucci.xyz @paulfree14 @steven@todon.nl

Accurate headline that, due to the nature of such things, cannot contain enough words to fully encapsulate the nuances of the issue being fully discussed within the body of the piece -- and which, quite correctly, evokes an opinion among those reading it who have an understanding of the topic.

@lunduke I'm so used to mastodon instances blocking this server entirely that I'm amazed you even saw my post, tbh

Bryan Lunduke, Anti-antifa 

@lunduke @paulfree14 @steven Some serious autism-posting going on in this thread about antifa being called terrorists. Would recommend reading.
I remember that was the headline in the news back when NJDHS published this article about antifa. https://www.njhomelandsecurity.gov/analysis/anarchist-extremists The headline is a bit deceiving because the article says that criminal members of anarchists groups in the area are the terrorists. It's that they're all loosely affiliated under the banner of 'antifa.' This is even the gist of the article as it was originally written https://web.archive.org/web/20170613021027/https://www.njhomelandsecurity.gov/analysis/anarchist-extremists-antifa when it was a lot heavier on the antifa side of the story before the (fascist-right-wing) government sanitized it, probably after receiving push back, from antifa supporters.
I might agree that people who "carry out criminal and violent acts during otherwise First Amendment-protected events and protests" are akin to terrorists. But to equate Mozilla $$$ -> email service -> activists -> antifa -> anarchists -> terrorists to Mozilla $$$ -> terrorists is a big stretch. Unfortunately I can't find this video to see if that's even what was said, only the screenshot of the description where that's vaguely implied. It's funny that this is barely at issue though, mostly people with hurt feelings that anyone could consider implying the potential possibility that somebody who was anti-fascist could ever be a terrorist.
