How to Make Fun of Nazis https://nyti.ms/2vHcTpH

One of the key points made which argues against the antifa:

"Most important perhaps, violence is just not as effective as nonviolence. In their 2011 book, “Why Civil Resistance Works,” Dr. Stephan and Erica Chenoweth examined how struggles are won. They found that in over 320 conflicts between 1900 and 2006, nonviolent resistance was more than twice as effective as violent resistance in achieving change. And nonviolent struggles were resolved much sooner than violent ones."

So please drop support for the naive antifa young ones and support the strategy of ridicule.

Nothing crushes a bully more than being made into a joke.
