Despite the liberal blowback against antifascism in the media, some principled pieces have been written defending antifascism and debunking the lies about the movement. Spencer Sunshine’s “Debunking the 3 Biggest Myths About Antifa” is particularly good. “Why it’s just bonkers to compare fascists to the activists trying to stop them,” “Waiting for a Perfect Protest?,” and “Liberals enable white power by lazily attacking Antifa” have some interesting points too. For the best overview of where antifascism is at strategically, check out the CrimethInc. text “Not Your Grandfather’s Antifascism Anti-Fascism Has Arrived. Here’s Where It Needs to Go.” To brush up on anarchist arguments about the question of free speech for fascists, check out this essay and FAQ.
