“Activists Seek Peace Through Violence”: CNN Quickly Scrubs Title Of Antifa Puff Peace

Written by:

How did we reach a point in our society, where groups like Antifa think nothing of wreaking havoc on the streets on a regular basis?

These people routinely beat those they disagree with, cause property damage, and shut down dissent without a single iota of shame.

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

You have to ask yourself, how did this group and others like it, get so bold as to think that they can flippantly disregard the law and openly riot in the streets?

The answer is that the media is responsible for this mess.

It’s the media that has repeatedly ignored, apologized for, and even celebrated their actions.

How else would these thugs have come to the conclusion that what they’re doing is okay?

They’re constantly being lionized by our morally bankrupt media.

CNN made that perfectly clear last week.

They published a piece that was highly sympathetic to Antifa titled “Unmasking the Leftist Antifa Movement: Activists Seek Peace Through Violence.”

This past weekend CNN drew more criticism for its left-wing bias after posting a profile on the violent left-wing group “Antifa,” that rather generously described the communist group as “seeking peace through violence.”

Despite the obvious contradiction in terms, at least the headline noted the group’s violent motives (albeit in a really stupid way.)

But that phrase was scrubbed just hours later by CNN in an apparent move to not offend members of the radical-left group.

The original article appeared online Friday afternoon, with the headline: “Unmasking the Leftist Antifa Movement: Activists Seek Peace Through Violence.”

That one mention of violence in the headline was the only real objective criticism CNN’s Sara Ganim and Chris Welch had to offer throughout their lengthy piece, interviewing several self-identified Antifa activists…

…If this was a radical, violent right-wing group, it’s a given that CNN would have plenty of left-wing groups on hand to denounce their ideologies and behavior.

When the group’s violent methods were finally first brought up in the article, CNN justifies the violence as a means to an end, because, the antifa members say, they’re committing violence to “eradicate hatred.”

Well, if you put it that way, it all makes sense!

And if you can believe it, CNN apparently didn’t scrub the title because of public outcry. According to an update posted at the bottom of the article, This story has been updated to clarify that counterprotesters say they are not to blame for violence at the Charlottesville protest.” 

Since the title is the only change CNN made, it appears that they were pressured by Antifa to change the title.

I think the real reason Antifa wanted to change the title, is because they don’t like their name being synonymous with a phrase that reeks of “ends justify the means” logic, even though that’s exactly what they’re all about.

So in short, CNN briefly exposed Antifa for what they really are, and Antifa quickly tried to convince them to change their article.

And they obliged!

That title was the only part of the article that was really critical of this group, and they tried to memory-hole it almost immediately.

This is how the media keeps groups like Antifa alive and helps them grow.

They constantly excuse and sugarcoat their behavior, and refuse to tell the public about what their true motives are.

They can’t bring themselves to call them what they are.

And what they are is the kind of people who think that peace can be achieved through violence.

Or as an Antifa member claimed in the article, they sometimes try to eradicate “hatred” through violence. 

In reality, violence never eradicates hatred or brings about peace, unless it eradicates every enemy.

Just pray that you don’t say or think anything that may be arbitrarily deemed hateful by these ignorant, street fighting teenagers.
