      Boston and Louisville simply outnumbered them by 2.5 orderd of magnitude. That's one way.

      PDX and Berkeley had different things to contend with: the pop-up tactics of Joey Gibson and also experienced police to defend against.

      In Cville we had highly inexperienced and inconsistent police, and we were even strength with the fash but outgunned.

      That's a thing that doesn't get talked about as much. PDX, Berkeley, Boston don't have the gun laws we do. We had many militias to factor in

      So these tactics have to vary. Here in the South, we're seeing a rise in armed praxis as community defense.

      People were literally shot at in view of the cops, who did nothing, and the only charge is firing a gun within 1000' of a school.

      But we're also seeing with the disasters happening and the resurgence of western fascism that community defense has to go global.

      The fash are incapable of understanding non-hierarchical organizing. They wanted Cville to be Berkeley East. But Cville's not Berkeley.

      We deployed our only militia to protect our rally point/medic station. The fact that we even had a militia shocked and deterred the fash.

      They couldn't pull popup tactics for the most part. And the fucking National Guard deployed, too.

      Our diversity of tactics stymied them, and they got stymied again in Berkeley. And they lost their media ally in a devastating way.

          And we're not done with the aftermath in Charlottesville, either. More charges are coming.

          I'm wary of a reading of the tweet that minimizes what we left on the streets. That's not what @ztsamudzi is saying at all.

          Continued resistance is needed to stave off the attempts at rebranding and rebuilding. Not every event will be like Cville.

          If one wants to learn more about these tactics and how to organize/deploy them, where would one go?

          I knew we'd won on one important front when I repeatedly heard mainstream media refer to them as Nazis, without scare quotes.
