Antifa, Sargon & The No Platform Debate

Antifa, Sargon & The No Platform Debate

Antifa have made a suicidally stupid tactical error in shutting down Sargon's debate at KCL. It plays into the hands of those critics of the left who accuse us of being anti-democratic, violent and intollerant to free speech and the open discussion of ideas. This is a win for Sargon, all left critics, and ultimately to those people who are actually adherents of far-right ideology. This battle isn't, in reality, one between the left and it's apponents; it's one between adherents of free speech and those SJW's who are prepared to defend a clearly failed ideology with increasingly violent and extreme tactics. The real left now has to emerge; it has to speak out vehemently against the backward poison of Post Modernism and Identity Politics and put class and community firmly back on the agenda.
