So they want to root out members that believe fascism is bad? I would hope every member is against fascism.

Surprise! Every conservative is pro-fascism. That's why they're conservative. Most of them just don't know it yet, until their mouthpieces tell them how to think.

Canadians know antifi just means antifascist and that is a good thing. If the conservatives support fascism i hope that party dies horribly and never recovers.

Fascism is part of the conservative dna of course they support it

I was thinking Spartacus, but agreed.

Hopefully, they find antifa everywhere. And hopefully, they take this clown out back and beat the living shit out of him.

Those idiots learned nothing from the most epic defeat in Canadian history. Outside of a few trailer parks in Alberta, no one wants this culture war bullshit.

You overestimate the public. They have about 30% support.

To find the antifa in CAF, Genuis just needs to open a history book:

The MP should be aware of the 'fa' problem in our military as well.

If this genius could read. He'd be very upset with you right now.

I know the article is ringing the alarm bell, but I just gotta say I hate the way folks use the phrase “few bad apples” these days. It’s a shortening of the saying “a few bad apples spoil the bunch” meaning even if it was “just a few bad apples” we still ought to fire everyone and start again lol

Hopefully all of them

My granddad was an antifascist in the 40s.

The whole country in danger because of the dictator Pedolini at the south and this guy is spending our tax dollars looking for the sasquatch...

Why, why is the boggy group of Anti Fasciats being brought up as a worry in Canada?

corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca · 6 pts · 165d

Conservatives are dollar-store Republicans.

That's kinda it. A little dumber, a little more sad in the pearl-clutching, a little more pathetic in their polite disdain of brown, non-male, and/or poor people, a little more ignorant in their rejection of expertise across the board.

We're at the stage where our guys can be heckled and laughed out of it, even if it'll Nickelback their supporters a little harder.

It's me! I am antifa's leader. Muwahahahaha!
