Mask off: Mainstream Dem groups unite with radical Left

[Revmitchell]

Wondering why so much of the Left in America continues to be silent — if not rationalizing — in the face of extremist left-wing groups like “Antifa”?

It might be because much of the mainstream Left has chosen to link up with radical, fringe organizations that agree with much of Antifa’s communist/socialist/anarchist ideology.

In a blog post this week, the Indivisible guide — a leftist organization that forms coalitions of groups to advocate for leftist causes — has detailed how in the wake of the Charlottesville mayhem this past weekend, traditional left-of-center groups have thrown their weight behind the revolutionary Left.

Indivisible revealed that a conglomerate has formed to “stand in solidarity with Charlottesville.”

While the coalition involves recognizable groups like the Obama-founded Organizing for Action (OFA), the Center for American Progress, MoveOn.org, the National Education Association (NEA), and other standard actors, it also includes openly extremist groups that seek to undermine the nation.

"
Bottom Line

It should come as no surprise, given the aforementioned coalition members, that the Left in America remains almost unanimously silent on the violent extremist Antifa group. The militant gang has viciously beaten supporters of the president and attacked police officers, and Antifa’s mob violence has resulted in the destruction of private property nationwide.

While the vast majority of the Right in the United States routinely condemns white nationalist elements who claim a place on its side of the ideological spectrum, the same cannot be said about the extremists who continue to align with America’s Left."

Even mainstream Democrat politicians have embraced the far left radicals - it's just not Democrat aligned groups. During the "occupy" days, Dem leaders like Nancy Pelosi openly supported the radical left and never do they condemn any violence that they engage in. They are more upset at this recent incident in Charlottesville then they were when Republican legislators were shot at and one severely wounded by a member of the left.

Rev. Mitch and Crabtownboy should just sequester their own corner of the board together so that Rev can continue to post solely about the left's radical elements while avoiding the other groups and CTB can post about the right's radical groups while ignoring the other.

You both are conversation killers.
