i think they think they are going to run into the weakest of limp milquetoast libs. Sad. Any community college would gently caress those kids up.

Well, they swarmed into Berkeley to go for a show of force, while there are dozens of Trump tax protests going on across the country. Also, the police were apparently ordered to hang back because they didn't have enough officers to cover the protest, because due to the lack of a permit request they had no idea how many people were coming.

One might ask why they let the rally happen at all if there was no permit, but such is the wisdom of city hall.

nah. the police don't have the explicit legal duty to protect and serve poo poo, they get to make the determination on the level of force necessary to control a situation. if the city wants more cops there they need to order them there/have ordered them there

From what I've seen the fighting ended a while ago.

Lauren Southern, Gavin McInnes, and others were promoting this thing as a big hard-right gathering. So this time the right outnumbered the left in Berkeley.

The way they see it, Berkeley is very left so being able to overcome resistance there is super symbolic and a victory. If Antifa can't mass numbers there and stop them, where can they?

I agree. If Antifas can't hold the streets of Berkeley where can they hold... New York City? Chicago? LA?...

Berkely is a relatively small city of barely 100,000 people. The MAGA-heads were flying in and commuting in from all over the country to attend this thing, whereas anti-trump people were spread out across the country in dozens and dozens of anti-tax protests. People need to calm the gently caress down.

Ah yeah. They can mass in one place for a big, symbolic victory. But where do they go from there? Not sure.

this reminds me that the alt-right dude who tried to start a white student union on my campus was also really loving short lol

also a huge coward because a moderate amount of protesting scared him from actually going through with trying to get chartered

I've been thinking this for awhile and I'll come out and say it: Antifa has totally failed at everything. This is a big fat F. The first problem is that it tended to fall into the Streisand Effect and make celebrities out of its enemies. Even when forced to admit that, it could at least claim it was defending the "local" community but it's done a poor showing there, too. So what justifies its existence now? Wrap it up and find a new strategy.
