" worshippers " like this armed group invading the city of Portland and occupying a park are just innocent church going families and not a violent militia there to mob people if they are left unchecked.

It's good for us in a way. It's bad that a lot of people that are new to direct action and the left in general may not know what to look out for and it can compromise whole groups of protesters, but if there is a major catalyst for radicalization again like last year then it might be easier for keen eyed folks to limit their ability to disrupt/compromise.
There's also just less need to actually do so in meatspace where it's way easier to be sussed out and compromised. Online feds can just switch to a new account.
