The Social Justice Warriors is a group supported by George Soros, the ultimate financial speculator and capitalist, my guess is that their leaders are paid to be violent.
Yes, I know, communists can be violent, but normally against people they perceive as enemies. What the Antifa and the Black Bloc did is utterly random violence in poor neighborhoods, even in neighborhoods that were traditionally left-wing. They burnt small cars and not big expensive cars, never even tried to get to rich neighborhoods or the commercial areas of town.
And that's what made no sense to me, it didn't fit the profile.
As for me I have come to dislike the left-right paradigm altogether, I see it as a divide and conquer thing, so that the little people like us are on each other's throat constantly and are incapable of seeing the real problems in this world.
On many issues you could call me a cultural conservative (I'm very much opposed to abortion, because I believe in the sanctity of life)
On the other hand I also lost all trust in central governments, I believe that democracy can only function as direct democracies locally where everybody has a say and can decide what the rules and laws should be for the community.
I see all power concentrations as dangerous, including the power concentration that comes with too much wealth disparity.
Wealth is fine while you use it for fulfilling your needs and get some luxuries, however once you use it to buy influence and gain power over others, then it becomes problematic.

So here is my take on this. I think looking at the Antifa/SJW/Resistance/Whatever else as a monolith is what is the most dangerous. By this I mean they're not all the same. Resistance members are obviously different from violent Antifa and SJW Bronies, but even within the Antifa movement, there are card-carrying pacifists who would do no harm. There are Anarcho Communists and Anarcho Capitalists, all with varying predispositions to violence. There are likely Soros-paid ring-leaders, as well as even darker hands in the pot.
Just like the alt-right aren't just Neo-Nazis. There are libertarians and disenfranchised republicans. There are violent white nationalists as well as black intellectuals. These groups can't be defined as monolithic, or we miss out on a lot of intriguing details. Groups will always be defined by their "loudest" members, but we have to fight that idea.

you are right groups are rarely monolithic. And in our day and age many groups are infiltrated by intelligence agencies or Soros financed people. It's hard to avoid that. The only thing you can do as a peace activist is to stick to the principles you believe in and not blindly follow any leader.

That's the thing, if groups are organized based upon being a group of people, it will fail. Groups have to be organized based upon certain principles, and all members have to hold each other accountable for those.
