I think you're right, to a certain extent. I've found myself on the other side with Brexit etc and sometimes it's impossible to put your side across because the remainers are all queuing up to insult Brexiters' intelligence and pat each other on the back for it. With that said, you'd likely get a much better response than the like of hoofer who just refused to accept anything that was difficult to explain. For example, the FLA have strong links to right wing groups and Tommy Robinson is treated like a celebrity. Several right wing speeches were made at the marches etc. In the unlikely event this is different from those groups it looks very difficult for their supporters to explain it.
Blurring their faces sends a negative message. Perhaps they feel unfairly demonised and want protection from that. To most it will look like they're going to cause trouble and are protecting themselves from being identified for the wrong reasons. |
Good post. I'd love to know ,and think it would be a lot more than people think, how those right wing beliefs sit with the British people. |  | |  |

For what? |
I don't know. Why else would they cover their faces? It's a peaceful movement who are opposed to all extremism so not hiding from the law. |  |

Bullsh1t. This FLA business is the same old far right sh1t we've been fighting for years, dressed up in a fancy new brand. Those views, and the people who hold them, don't deserve respect. |
Cheers for proving my point. A 40w lightbulb is brighter than you. | | | |

Theres f.ck all wrong with a Union flag. |
When not being misappropriated by a right wing group I’d whole heartedly agree... |  | | |

You didn't actually make a point. All you did was complain that due to distasteful opinions being called out as being distasteful rather than welcomed, you won't be posting here anymore. |  |

I think you're right. Again, look at Brexit, of the people who voted the majority voted for Brexit and yet if you didn't know better and only glanced at this site you'd think it was about 90/10 to remain. Some people don't think it's worth the hassle to post their true beliefs. Even i'll admit that when people at work asked I said I voted remain just because I couldn't be bothered with explaining myself to people who wouldn't listen. |  |

Are you seriously asking me why racist, bigoted opinions should be regarded as distasteful? | |

What's wrong with the world today: people genuinely use 'Anti Fascist' as a derogatory term.
Maybe these over privileged edgelords were always there and it was Trump et al which made them think they could air their bigoted ignorance in public, either way I want to go back to the old days.
And Twitter needs purging, the people owning that platform VERIFY known Nazis, FFS |
Because antifa aren’t anti fascist, they’re anti capitalist just like the current labour shadow cabinet. Sociopaths who want to use the fact that we are midway through a 20 year recession to brainwash the youth and permanently destroy the economy. |  | | |

This is why I haven't posted for a while and probably won't post in the future. Too many people on here cannot accept the views of others unless it falls into the mainstream of things. Even the moderators have been sucked in. This used to be a great site to debate but sadly not anymore. [Post edited 14 Oct 2017 19:18]

You should keep posting, you're always reasonable.
However you've got two votes in favour of your comment from two of the people least likely to engage in reasonable debate in this sort of thing on this site. Read into that what you will.
As for the pic in the OP. They're brave lads hiding their faces aren't they. |  |

Disagree with your 90 10 observation j2. All polls on here in the subject were pretty evenly split, which reflects the broader population. | |

I've seen this photo without the blurred faces, was floating around last w/e, but obviously this account sharing it thought it looked "harder" to blur out the faces.
I know one of the lads in this photo as I've been to an away game with him. He's fresh of legal drinking age and I've never heard him say or seen him share anything online that would make me suspect he is of a more sinister motive going to the march in the first place.
My fear with the FLA is it is being used as a recruitment drive for actual right extremism groups such as whatever splinter Tommy Robinson is involved with this week and Britain First. It makes logical sense to be against "extremism", but when you allow that t1t to show up you're drawing a very risky line in the sand as to what you're actually angry about.

Polls are anonymous. How many on here are openly out voters? Far, far less than openly remainers. | |

Antifa is anti facist - it's the 2 words put together. It's a term not a group yet people insist on saying it's the latter. |  |

They are hiding their faces ( in my opinion) because we aren't allowed to express our opinions from a British point of view without being regarded as racist. | | | |
