Escaping Antifa

Gabriel Nadales was an angry, bitter and unhappy young man—the perfect recruit for Antifa, the violent left-wing group which claims to fight against fascism. He says his beef was against the greedy, heartless power structure that didn’t care about him or society’s innocent victims and which had robbed, beaten and stolen from his ancestors.

Nadales explains that Antifa stands for antifascist, but the name is purposely deceptive. It is calibrated so that anyone who dares to criticize the group or its tactics can in turn can be labeled fascist. Their mantra: to blast the establishment, taunt police and destroy property.

But something powerful clicked within Nadales. He says, “Joining Antifa was the worst decision of my life.” So how did he escape? He says he encountered something good, friends who pointed him to the logic of Milton Friedman, Thomas Sowell and Ben Shapiro. “What they said just made sense and offered me a better way to live.” He added that Antifa  just cared about control and only offered him more anger and bitterness. Here’s the rest of Nadales’ story on PragerU.

The Truth Behind The Mask

The protests, rioting and looting surrounding the death of George Floyd have shone a new spotlight on the radical left group Antifa. Members of the alleged anti-fascist group have dominated the chaos in otherwise peaceful protests across the country.

Former Antifa member Gabriel Nadales says the attraction to the group is to promote animal rights, anti-capitalism or pro socialism, but once the black masks are donned, all that is out the door. “Once they come together in the black block and under the masks, they forget all that and they go for that common goal of silencing whatever their opposition at the moment is,” Nadales says.

Attorney General William Barr says that these acts of anarchy are not exercises of First Amendment rights, but are crimes designed to terrify fellow citizens. He added that the Department of Justice will treat violence associated with members of Antifa as domestic terrorism.
