The Liberation Movement Basic informationWere mainly based off the group of Anti-Fa, and share the same background as you see below.
Quote from: Wikipedia
Anti-Fa is the opposition to fascist ideologies, organizations, governments and individuals. Most major resistance movements during World War II were anti-fascist.
Militant anti-fascists advocate the use of violence against fascists.[1] They are usually supporters of class struggle, and view fascism as an anti-working class political system.[2][this primary source citation needs verification] Militant anti-fascists do not consider their fight against fascism a defence of the status quo.[3] Writer Dave Renton argues that "for anti-fascists, violence is not part of their world view", and calls militants "professional anti-fascists.
In the 1920s and 1930s in Germany, Communist Party and Social Democratic Party members advocated violence and mass agitation amongst the working class to stop Adolf Hitler's Nazi Party and the Freikorps.[citation needed] Leon Trotsky wrote:
In Italy in the 1920s, anti-fascists fought against the violent Blackshirts. The rise of fascist leader Benito Mussolini was resisted violently by a small fraction of the workers' movement. After the signature by the Italian Socialist Party (PSI) of a pacification pact with the National Fascist Party on August 3, 1921, and the trade unions' adoption of a legalist and pacified strategy, other members of the workers' movement who disagreed with this strategy formed the Arditi del popolo in 1921. The General Confederation of Labour (CGT) and the PSI refused to officially recognize the anti-fascist militia, while the Italian Communist Party (PCI) ordered its members to quit the organization. The PCI organized some militant groups, but their actions were relatively minor and the party maintained a non-violent, legalist strategy. The Italian anarchist Severino Di Giovanni, who exiled himself to Argentina following the 1922 March on Rome, organized several bombings against the Italian fascist community.[12]
Italian liberal anti-fascist Benedetto Croce wrote the Manifesto of the Anti-Fascist Intellectuals, which was published in 1925.[13] Another notable Italian liberal anti-fascist around that time was Piero Gobetti.[14]
Between 1920 and 1943, several anti-Fascist movements were active among the Slovenes and Croats in the territories annexed to Italy after World War One (the so-called Julian March);[15][16] among them, the most influential was the militant insurgent organization TIGR (acronym for the placenames Trieste-Istria-Gorizia-Rijeka), which carried out numerous sabotages, attacks on representatives of the Fascist party and on the Italian military.[17][18] Most of the underground structure of the organization was discovered and dismantled by the Fascist Secret Police in the years 1940-1941,[19] but the majority of its former activists joined the Liberation Front of the Slovenian People after June 1941.
During World War II, many members of the Italian resistance left their houses and went to live in the mountainside, fighting against both Italian fascists and German Nazi soldiers. Many cities in northern Italy, including Turin and Milan, were freed by anti-fascist uprisings.[20]
We settle things through Propaganda, and fighting for our freedom.

Who controls this group? Cortez, if you have problems with it, take it up with him.
How would I join this group? The Liberation Movement hides in the shadows, it has to to keep its members safe.
But if you happen to run into a member, I'm sure he'd help you out
any way possible, you may get denied from The Liberation Movement, but that doesn't mean
we wont accept you in the future.

Communist is Fascism.
NO thats where your wrong.
They were both totalitarian systems, that is they sought to control all aspects of the economic and cultural life of the country as a whole and of the individual citizen. In order to achieve this they both used a combination of populist enthusiasm built around a cult of personality for the leader, and sheer terror. Communism got started first but the Fascists learned from the Communist experience and put their methods into practice. Stalin and his henchmen then studied the Nazi methods and borrowed from their ideas. I think there were two significant differences. First that Fascism was nationalist, basing its ideology on the glory and superiority of one people over the others whereas Communism was, at least nominally, internationalist, claiming to seek to spread it's "benefits" to all peoples of the world. Second, whereas communism seized all private property in the name of the state and put all industrial and economic production under the direct control of the government, Fascism left farms and large industries in the hands of their owners and let them run them as they saw fit so long as they provided the output the government demanded.
Take that :3
Wow, nice. I would be fun to see riots like in the videos.
The only differences are their opinions, and the fact that they dont buy off their factories, from what you stated.
Anyway, its good.But its basically rebels protesting and then getting killed.That's what it sounds like.You will become stalkers faster then you can say Andy DeFrei
Good idea for a group .. although, the Combine are ruthless.
'Riot in the town? Gun them down.' I doubt people ICly will have the confidence to riot openly against a force as mighty, as cruel and as unforgiving as the Combine.
Civilians: Lighly armed / Unarmed / few in numbers > Combine: Heavily armed / high in numbers.
Ye, its not a possible group.

I'm sorry, you seem to have just fucked government history up the ass.
Lenin set up communism in Russia, not Stalin. Russia never "Learned" from NAzi Germany. The Bolshevik Revolution occurred well before Nazi Germany solidified, and communism DID indeed have a cult of personality. Lenin was known as "The good Lenin" and, after all of the college educated people were killed off, people treated him like a benevolent God. Stalin directly translates into "Man of Steel" And he was assumed by the German people to be a brilliant general and warrior who was expanding the influence of the Motherland on a daily basis.
You also claim communism is "Internationalist" When in its very FOUNDATION its purely Nationalistic, Constant references to the "Motherland" and calling your fellow citizens "Comrade" is a huge indicator of familial and patriarchal government focusing on improving the Country first, the citizen second, and then expanding the country third.
Please, before you make your horrifically flawed and terribly researched claims, make sure you read up on the subject you think you know about.
Can this group please be evaluated yet?
PENDING - Your faction is pending. It has been allowed to be taken IC, and will be watched for a week. Will be DENIED or ACCEPTED.
- Need to see how this group RP's and acts. Feel free to accept members, take part in events, or do some RP.
Judas, i actually ripped it off a debate.
Communism as a theory of government and social reform may be said, in a limited sense, to have begun with the ancient Greek idea of the Golden Age, a concept of a world of communal bliss and harmony without the institution of private property.
Wait what? We don't need anti-fa group if we don't have facists :O
Ughh If this is such a problem just change the group name.
Protip: Take this to Serious Debates or SF. Danke.
Locked until review.
It's a good group, we'll talk with you about a few minor changes Cortez.
