    If they think that a lack of justification is going to stop the fascists, they’ve got another think coming. Even if the response is completely non-violent, the fascists will just get tired of waiting and invent their own excuses, like they always do.

      It won’t stop them, but will make it easier to rally the broader public against the Nazis. Having more people siding against them is important

        Yeah, I feel like they’re going to go martial law in October no matter what, but in the meantime violence from protesters is just going to a) fracture the anti fascist coalition b) provoke retaliation from ICE that will hit bystanders

        Things may get worse no matter what but violence is likely to make them worse
