If they think they can overcome numbers with tightly packed group formations, they're in for a rude awakening.

You know as well as I do that they're getting these ideas largely from video games and movies, and have little if any real experience with organized violence.

I'm hardly a judo expert here but they think they can solve their problems by being even more rigid in their plans (which invariably go to poo poo) and to bring more poo poo with them. Bigger shields! Bigger goggles!

this is where they get their logic wrong. demonstrations are not epic larp battles where everyone lines up and charges. they're fleeting, fluid events where combat between opposing forces are generally running battles based on where the opponents are willing to commit to battle. the lighter you are with the ability to hit and retreat the better. it's skirmishing, not sustained battle.

It became obsolete because the Romans always made sure they withdrew to uneven terrain.

Good listen if you want to hear Lee Fang get demolished. But also it's interesting how they frame their arguments. See this thread:

https://mobile.twitter.com/devinzshaw/status/902683345599037440

Thanks for posting this just finished listening.

Lee starts off with some seemingly reasonable points about the mega corporations who run this country and how "the left" (really just liberals) is always getting distracted by minor squabbles, but as the podcast goes on & Lee Fang continues repeating himself over and over and over again like the pepe sympathizers in the mock someone thread, it becomes clear that he is just terrified of any kind of confrontation whatsoever. The business class have the entire might of the american police state behind them. If the left really started going after them and protesting all the awful poo poo they do there will absolutely be a lot of violence and I don't think for a second that people like Lee Fang would be there to support leftists against the people he thinks "really matter".

antifa are the first ppl that would agree antifa shouldn't exist, except the straight "left" (again, really just liberals) has been sleeping on the job for 30 years.
