Are you sure?

The “March Against Marxism” was a planned protest that had nothing to do with the alt-right, but it was canceled after receiving threats from the militant leftist group By Any Means Necessary (BAMN). BAMN claimed it was a “neo-Nazi” rally, but the rally itself was organized by a transgender woman and other like-minded people who opposed the spread of Marxism in Berkeley

Maybe *eventually* but they are growing… and enjoy plenty of support, including here on Medium and in many universities.

Lots of violence in Berkeley this weekend… is it coming around to bite them? What does it mean when violent groups are allowed to beat on Republicans (the police simply step aside).

The extreme left is able to violently strike anyone right of Mother Teresa, unopposed by police… they try to make arrests *after*, but a growing, violent, national group can be seen in action all over the country.

How do you see this coming back on then? I don’t even think I’ve seen you condemn them, but you claim to be anti-violence. There sure seems to be a mismatch here.

How can you possibly support (even though silence), violence against people that have a right to exist… the right to assemble… the right to expression?

Are their counter examples where radical right wing groups went out to violently silence left wing groups, like BLM? Occupy Wall Street, Occupy Oakland, Occupy DC, etc?
