Does Antifa impede peoples freedom to live peacefully? You are deep in double edge sword territory. Groups you like may suffer more than those you don’t

I think people have really not understood what I said. Let me break it down.

"Hate crime" is like an intensifier - it increases the charge.

So let's say you've committed 0 crime. Add the intensifier and you still have 0 crime.

Let's say you've committed 1 crime. Add the intensifier and you have **1 crime** - more serious because it's bold.

Does Antifa impede freedom to live peacefully? It depends what they do, doesn't it? Crimes should apply to everyone equally.
