      In Charlottesville on August 12, they numbered several hundred. It was the largest nationalist gathering in decades. And someone died.

      In Charlottesville we knew it was more than community defense. We were trying to protect something much bigger. The risks scaled.

      What we faced: - The largest nationalist rally in decades - SIX different law enforcement agencies - The National Guard - Indep. Militias

      August 12 was at least an order of magnitude more complex than anything we've seen in decades. We talk about Skokie... this was bigger.

      The antifascists in PDX and Berkeley who deal with this more regularly know how dangerous just a couple dozen Nazis with 1 LE agency can be.

      What we saw on August 12 is what happens when that scales beyond a couple dozen. Imagine if it scaled more.

      When I said, "this is the end of America" that's what I was seeing. I was seeing what would happen if we couldn't contain the next step.

      Berkeley and PDX antifa keep their movements from scaling to what we saw in Cville. What they do saves lives.

      August 12 in Charlottesville was a natural extension of what that can be if it grows. They picked Charlottesville as a "soft target."

      Heather Heyer died because the alt-right specifically picked Cville as a good place to kill people.

      "Both sides are bad" isn't just dangerous rhetoric. It masks the issue of what happens if the alt-right scales.

          The actions in Portland, Berkeley, Seattle, etc. aren't about antifascists getting their rocks off punching Nazis.

          It's that these folks *know* what happens when 2 dozen Nazis becomes 600.

          Nothing stopped Joey Gibson from speaking at Waterfront in Portland on Sunday. He had a shitload of police protection. He didn't show.

          It's because the right wants violence. And if no one is there to counter them, and to stop the state from enabling that, it grows.

          Charlottesville showed the world what happens if we let it get that large. We can't let it get that large ever again. Done.
