I see your point, but unless we agree on terms, how can we assess Linehan's original comment that "if you're not Antifa you're not moral"?

We need to define our terms but this doesn't take long. 'I'm not talking abt being opposed to fascism but the actions of the group "Antifa"'

But isn't that what the guy was doing (albeit in a haughty way)? Also I often find agreeing defs takes way longer than I would've predicted.

Possible he genuinely thought ppl are criticising opposition to fascism rather than the group known as antifa but unlikely.

Agreeing definitions is often impossible. You just have to know what the other person means.

Usually ppl claiming that opposing antifa is opposing anti-fascism are trying to conflate them & say antifa is the right way to do it.

But the tweet he was responding to implied anti-Antifa=pro-fascism=immoral. He was rightly saying Antifa and anti-fascism aren't synonymous.

Christian was, yes. I was agreeing with his criticism of the other tweet. Are we at cross-purposes?

When you said 'the guy' did you mean Christian? I assumed you meant Graham.

Oh ok! I thought you were criticising Christian when it's Graham who thinks it's ok to punch people for their opinions/beliefs. As you were!
