Leftists don’t wanna be the aggressors but they shouldn’t be victims either. That’s a lot of people you need to protect and behooves organizers putting these kinds of events to keep security in mind - either hosting or inviting left-wing armed groups or asking someone with security experience to show up.

Announcements should go to private listservs not social media, limited need to know basis, and folks with guns. You announce this shit on social media, 30 people see, 15 rsvp, 5 show up. Meanwhile, the local nazi group now has a time and date to harass you with zero infiltration or data gathering on their part.

This country isn't safe for leftists fucking act like it.
